A MUSICAL AUTOBIOGRAPHY

Description:
4 CD box set This set contains material released by Decca in 1954 to celebrate their 20th anniversary and pay tribute to their most successful star, Bing Crosby. This contains 49 re recordings and 40 originals all linked by Bing's charming commentary. The set is a fascinating trip through Bing's career up to the early 50's and covers all musical styles from country, ballads, jazz, Irish to religious songs, comedy, duets and Christmas favorites. This also includes music from the films Paris Honeymoon and The Star Maker and broadcasts from Bings radio show, plus songs from all the soundtracks Bing recorded for famed director Mack Sennett in the 1930's including the infamous sound of the pipe organ used to back Bing when he was in dispute with the musicians union.
