When Columbia Records released the double-LP Bing Crosby in Hollywood in the fall of 1967 as the flagship album in its Hall of Fame reissue series, it was the first comprehensive collection of Crosby recordings from the company's vaults. Crosby recorded for Columbia as singer with the Paul Whiteman Orchestra from 1928 to 1930, and his recordings for Brunswick Records from late 1931 to mid-1934 ended up in Columbia's possession when the Brunswick catalog was divided up and sold off. Columbia had attempted a few compilations in the late 1940s and '50s, but nothing like this: compiler/annotator Miles Krueger assembled a 32-track selection of commercial recordings made in connection with Crosby's early films, among them some of his biggest hits of the early 1930s. The scholarly approach was a precursor to the kind of reissues that started to be done in the CD era. Collectables Records has chosen to reissue the set in two separate volumes, which diminishes its value slightly, at least if you don't buy both of them. The first disc ends halfway through the tracks from 1933's Too Much Harmony, rendering Kreuger's note about "I Guess It Had to Be That Way," a song cut from the film, incomprehensible, since it isn't actually on this disc; it's the first track on Vol. 2. Similarly, the date range in the title, 1930-1934, is now inaccurate, as is Kreuger's statement that, "This album contains, without exception, every recording [Crosby] made commercially from all the feature films in which he appeared, from his modest screen debut in The King of Jazz, in 1930, through his eminent screen stardom in She Loves Me Not, in 1934." That's what you'll have if you buy both volumes; here, you get exactly half of it. ~ William Ruhlmann Producer: Miles Kreuger Musical Guests The Mills Brothers   Compilation Appearances Greatest Hits Genius Of Bix Beiderbecke Christmas Favorites Hits Of Rodgers & Hart Music Of Harry Warren Nothing Like The Sun Vol. 1-30's Complete Capitol Singles Collection Vol. 2-Songs That Got Us Through WWII Complete Gershwin Songbooks Complete Rodgers & Hart Songbo Rodgers & Hart Songbook 1946 Changing The Tune Let The Good Times Roll 1938-1954 Priceless Jazz Male Singers-Best Of The Big B Deep In A Dream Over The Rainbow Birth Of The Blues Ultimate Christmas Vol. 2-Christmas Cocktails Complete Johnny Mercer Songboo Ultimate Collection G.I.
