Need some Bing Crosby CD Recommendations.

[Weston]

Hi all.

Absolutely huge Crosby fan - can ya tell? But all I have of him is the boxed set "His Legendary Years." (An ebay steal for $7 shipped!) But as much as I love it, all four CD's have been through heavy rotation, and I need to freshen up my Bing selection. I think my wife is starting to learn the words to "The Spaniard that Blighted my Life"!

Any suggestions as to CDs or (preferably) Box Sets that wouldn't duplicate what I've got too badly?

Swingin' With Bing: The Lost Radio Performances

Guaranteed no duplication with any other collection! I was just listening to it Friday. I love the radio recordings the best because of the exchanges between the performers. It really puts you in that time. Too bad they didn't leave the old commercials in.

Although most of my Der Bingle is recorded off of 78s, this compilation is pretty spiffy swell.

Bing! His Legendary Years, 1931 to 1947

It's a box set.
