Limited 180gm vinyl LP pressing of this 1960 collaboration between the music greats, proposed and financed by Bing Crosby himself. Crosby wanted everything to be perfect, and looked for a well balanced and cohesive album instead of a collection of separate songs with roughly arranged duets. The talented Billy May was called in to do the arrangements, and Johnny Mercer acted as a kind of producer, adding supplementary lyrics to nearly all of the songs and even singing a single uncredited line on 'Lazy River'. Mercer's new lyrics gave unity to the album as a whole, creating the impression of a whole stage show rather than a compilation of individual performances. The album marked Louis Armstrong's only collaboration ever with Billy May.
