Bing Crosby / 20th Century Masters: Collection - CD (Used)

Author: Bing Crosby

Brand: Umgd/Mca

Format: Best of

Release Date: 22-06-1999

Details: Product Description The perfect single-CD anchor to any Bing collection: his top 1944-57 hits plus some rarely collected treats. I'll Be Seeing You; Swinging on a Star; It's Been a Long Time; White Christmas; Don't Fence Me In; Far Away Places , and Dear Hearts and Gentle People join Play a Simple Melody (with his son Gary); the theme from Around the World in 80 Days , and more! Amazon.ca Bing Crosby is the gold standard against which every vocal stylist of the pre-rock & roll era (even Sinatra) can be judged. His assured, intimate style changed the way popular music was sung, and his casual mode of dress--the hat, the pipe, the sweater--made him the era's definition of cool. Just so, he was staggeringly successful as a recording artist, with over 300 hits and nearly half a billion records sold. Reducing that to the dozen songs heard here must have seemed a comically impossible task. Yet the selection is a good one, coming mostly from the World War II era and just beyond, when Crosby's popularity was at its zenith. The set shows off Crosby's versatility--one minute he's a jazz singer ("Swingin' on a Star," "Play a Simple Melody"--a duet with son Gary), the next an emotional crooner ("I'll Be Seeing You," "It's Been a Long Long Time") and the definitive interpreter of timeless classics ("White Christmas"). Brief though it may be, this is a surprisingly satisfying collection. --Daniel Durchholz
