Bing Crosby's Treasury - The Songs I Love is an LP set recorded in 1965[1] and issued by a mail-order firm, The Longines Symphonette Society, an educational service of the Longines-Wittnauer Watch Company.

Background

This was a six LP album comprising eighty-four tunes chosen by Bing Crosby, twelve of which he had recorded: the remaining tracks were orchestral. He also recorded a radio promotional disc on which, introduced by Frank Knight, he extolled the merits of the selected songs. On each side of all six LP's there was included one Crosby recording and with the set there was an additional free "souvenir" LP ("Bing Crosby's All Time Hit Parade") which consisted of four more Crosby recordings and eight orchestral tracks. All this, of course, was explained by Frank Knight in a spiel that gave full directions of how to obtain the set.

The Director of the Society, Mishel Piastro, described as "Dean of American conductors, famed violin virtuoso and leader of the sessions" seemed, implicitly, to be the conductor of the orchestra and such was assumed until several years later when the popular British conductor and arranger Geoff Love revealed that he had made the arrangements and orchestral recordings in England. Crosby over-dubbed his voice later at Coast Recorders, San Francisco.[2]

Many of the tracks were used again in 1968 and issued on a similar album also called Bing Crosby's Treasury - The Songs I Love. This time there were 36 tracks by Crosby.

Reception

Ralph Harding writing in the fanzine "The Crosby Collector" said: "All of the Bing numbers are exceptionally well done and I would be hard put to pick out a particular favourite and if pressed I suppose "When My Sugar Walks Down the Street" really stood out, probably because it's one of my favourite numbers. You will notice that the great majority of numbers are those already featured by Bing during his recording career. At the moment I don't possess individual master numbers, recording dates and other data but without a doubt Bing is in excellent voice. I appreciate that the album costs a lot of money but even if it means mortgaging the happy home, please don't miss out on this set. It is an excellent buy and I thoroughly recommend it."[3]
