Music reviews of That's Jazz
Music Review: Simply fabulous
Rating: 5 Stars
Bing's voice was a breathtaking instrument in these years, as these songs amply prove. I think his absolute height in range and expression was in the years 1931-1936, a period generously covered in this collection. If you're only familiar with the Crosy voice from the 40's and 50's, then you're in for a special treat. These recordings showcase Bing's more husky, jazz-influenced delivery, replete with scat singing, improvisations, banter with sidemen and absolutely dizzying vocal virtuosity. Perhaps the most beautiful song here is "The Last Round Up," a poignant display which Bing sings with piercing emotion. The high, sustained notes he hits here will send chills down your spine. This is one of Crosby's absolutely greatest recordings. Another gem is "I'm An Old Cowhand," blessed with a killer vocal performance and jazz band backup. This is an outstanding collection and one which you transform a fence-sitter into a bonafide Crosby fan.
I owned this album on vinyl for years and am thrilled to see it finally offered in CD format. Enjoy it!
