Bing
Crosby
is
often
remembered
at
Christmas
time
each
year
because
of
his
recording
of
White
Christmas
but
he
was
much
more
versatile
than
that
as
this
CD
will
demonstrate.
Crosby
dominated
popular
music
for
two
decades
with
over
300
chart
successes
in
America
including
no
less
than
38
No.
1
hits,
and
as
an
actor,
he
won
the
Academy
Award
for
Best
Actor
in
1944
and
was
nominated
twice
more
for
that
prize.
By
the
late
1940s
and
early
1950s,
Bing's
hits
were
becoming
less
frequent.
He
was
still
recording
quality
songs
from
shows
and
films
which
were
relevant
to
the
story
of
the
vehicle
but
which
perhaps
lacked
hit
parade
potential.
The
tracks
on
this
CD
include
some
of
that
material
and
every
one
of
the
27
tracks
here,
for
one
reason
or
another,
has
never
been
issued
in
a
digital
form
before.
We
have
songs
from
several
of
Bing's
films
-
Riding
High,
Mr.
Music,
Just
For
You,
Little
Boy
Lost,
The
Country
Girl.
Bing
had
always
sought
to
cover
the
better
songs
from
Broadway
musicals
and
here
we
have
his
versions
of
So
In
Love
from
Kiss
Me,
Kate,
The
Yodel
Blues
from
Texas,
Li'l
Darlin',
The
Best
Thing
For
You
from
Call
Me
Madam
and
Ohio
from
Wonderful
Town.
Bing
visited
France
several
times
in
the
early
1950s
and
he
was
encouraged
to
record
a
compilation
of
French
songs
which
became
his
first
concept
album
-
Le
Bing.
This
10"
record
has
never
been
re-released
and
to
reflect
his
Gallic
influences
of
this
time,
we
have
four
songs
-
Cela
M'est
Egal
(from
Little
Boy
Lost),
Mon
Couer
Est
Un
Violon
(from
the
Le
Bing
album),
the
classic
La
Vie
En
Rose
(also
from
Le
Bing)
and
Embrasse-Moi
Bien.
