BING CROSBY
GOOD & RARE, VOLUME 2 |  |
Description:
This second volume the first volume is on Sepia 1071 uses the same criteria of only including songs by Bing which have never been issued in a digital form before. Good and Rare is the title and that's what we've got! The songs on this album date from 1949 to 1955 when Bing was recording a wide variety of material and employing different types of accompaniment right across the musical spectrum from the Latin American Bando Da Lua through Russ Morgan to the big band of Tommy Dorsey. Bing demonstrates his amazing versatility as he copes with all the challenges presented to him in his usual rich melodious tones. Songs from two of Bings movies Mr. Music and Here Comes The Groom. From Broadway you will hear ditties from the short lived Texas, Lil Darlin, Lost In The Stars, Guys And Dolls and Pipe Dream. Several of the songs on the CD are duets. The partnership with his son, Gary, works well and Donald OConnor combines smoothly with Bing in a manner which suggested that they could have been a regular team. |
