Bing Crosby, aside from his more obvious talents, was one versatile cat. This document of his work in the 1930s demonstrates both his adaptability and his taste. Within the space of these tracks, Bing trades hipster lingo with Louis Jordan, wisecracks with Connie Boswell, and backslaps with Louis Armstrong as if he'd been working with each artist for years, not hours. Through it all, Crosby is unflappable, self-effacing, and cool as the other side of the pillow. Crisp arrangements, good-to-excellent sound, and topnotch, gloriously carefree performances make this a crucial document to anyone even remotely interested in Bing, early pop music, or jazz vocals. --S.
