Cash Johnny: Milestones of a legend 1957-62 [10 CD]

Bing Crosby was one of the most outstanding protagonists of American light music. Debonair, smart, good-humoured - and blessed with a timbre that was instantly recognisable even among<br/>hundreds of voices, he radiated an irresistible charm both as singer and actor. Born in Tacoma in 1903 this artist was renowned for his exquisite brand of tear-jerking and memorable jazz melodies, which he delivered with a velvety tone reminiscent, according to the New York Times, of a cuddly bear. The name Bing Crosby has become immortalised ever since "White Christmas".<br/><br/>This compilation brings together some of his best and most successful albums from the years between 1956 and 1962 and reflects the huge range of his musical gifts: HIGH SOCIETY,<br/>SOME FINE OLD CHESTNUTS, BING SINGS WHILST BREGMAN SWINGS, SONGS I WISH I HAD SUNG THE FIRST TIME AROUND, BING WITH A BEAT, FANCY MEETING YOU HERE, BING & SATCHMO, A MUSICAL AUTOBIOGRAPHY OF BING, EL SEÑOR BING, WISH YOU A MERRY CHRISTMAS and SELECTIONS FROM HOLIDAY INN.<br/>Included are other great stars of show business from that time who were also instrumental in shaping the genre: Louis Armstrong, Fred Astaire, The Andrews Sisters, Frank Sinatra and many others.
