Our Take

BING CROSBY General Electric Radio Time takes us on a time-travelling journey back to the golden age of radio with the legendary Bing Crosby as our charismatic guide. Known for his smooth vocals and easy charm, Crosby effortlessly glides through a mix of classic songs and comedy sketches that will transport you straight to a bygone era.

From the catchy opener "Swingin' on a Star" to the cheeky humour of sketches like "The Gaslight Club," Crosby's wit and talent shine through on every track. The inclusion of guest appearances from stars like Peggy Lee and Louis Armstrong adds an extra layer of star power to an already stellar lineup.

While the production may feel a bit dated by modern standards, there's a certain charm to the retro sound quality that only adds to the album's nostalgic appeal. Crosby's effortless charisma carries the album through, making it a joy to listen to from start to finish.

Whether you're a die-hard Bing Crosby fan or simply looking for a taste of musical history, General Electric Radio Time is a delightful throwback that will leave you tapping your feet and humming along with the classics. So sit back, relax, and let Bing Crosby serenade you with his timeless tunes – you won't be disappointed.

About the artist

Bing Crosby

Ah, Bing Crosby, the legendary crooner whose smooth vocals have serenaded generations of music lovers. With a career spanning over five decades, Crosby has solidified his place in music history as one of the greatest entertainers of all time. Born Harry Lillis Crosby Jr. in Tacoma, Washington in 1903, Bing got his start in showbiz as a member of the vaudeville act The Rhythm Boys before making a name for himself as a solo artist. His deep, velvety voice and laid-back charm quickly endeared him to audiences around the world. Crosby's golden era came in the 1940s and 50s, with hits like "White Christmas" and "Pennies from Heaven" cementing his status as a household name. But it wasn't just his chart-topping singles that set him apart – Bing was also a talented actor, starring in numerous films and winning an Academy Award for his role in Going My Way. Despite his immense success, Crosby remained humble and down-to-earth, earning a reputation as a true gentleman of the industry. His collaborations with artists like Frank Sinatra and Louis Armstrong showcased his versatility and musical prowess, solidifying his place as a true icon. And let's not forget Crosby's trademark style – from his dapper suits to his ever-present pipe, Bing had a look that was as timeless as his music. So here's to Bing Crosby, a true music legend whose legacy will continue to inspire generations to come.
