  • This superb, five-disc box set collects Bing Crosby's best recordings from across nearly 30 years. While Crosby began to edge toward a comfortable if likeable caricature of himself in the 1960s, these recordings reveal an artist with impeccable musical instincts. Crosby's sense of swing is subtle and spot-on, his phrasing is stylish, nuanced, and intimate, and the warm timbre of his rich, resonant baritone is enough to melt even the iciest heart. Crosby's best-known tunes are here, sure, including "White Christmas" and popular show tunes, but there is plenty of lesser-known, superior material to treasure. Beautifully assembled and packaged, BING is a definitive slice of one of pop music's greatest singers.
