Description
|
|
|
|
In his long and unparalleled career as the world’s most popular singer, Bing Crosby had an amazing 377 hits, including 216 records in the Top 10 and 38 No. 1 songs. No one else has even come close. He was a warm and wonderfully relaxed duet partner, as heard on the numbers with Peggy Lee ("Down the Old Ox Road"), Jane Wyman ("In the Cool, Cool, Cool of the Evening"), and Rosemary Clooney ("Zing a Little Zong"). With four selections rarely found on Crosby collections ("I Surrender, Dear," "But Beautiful," "Blue Skies" with Les Paul on guitar, and "South America, Take It Away" with the Andrews Sisters), these radio appearances also include "Dear Hearts and Gentle People," "Play a Simple Melody," "Far Away Places," "The Whiffenpoof Song," "Now Is the Hour," "Just One More Chance," and "White Christmas."
