This generous double-disc collection gathers some 27 recordings from early in Crosby's career, spanning a number of hits and material that ranges from ballads ("White Cliffs of Dover") and standards ("Sweet Georgia Brown," "Pennies from Heaven") to loping swing ("Swinging on a Star," "New San Antonio Rose," "Shoo Shoo Baby") and a few patriotic numbers ("Yankee Doodle Boy," "Song of Freedom," "Get on the Road to Victory"). Not the definitive Crosby collection, but a fine introduction to his career and, given the vintage radio recordings herein, an often fascinating historical document as well. --Jerry McCulley« less

"While this is a wonderful collection, the main reason I bought it was for "I love you truly." However, it was not actually on the cd. (it was listed, but not there) The tracks are listed slightly out of order and there is an extra song. The collection is wonderful, I was just disappointed to find the song missing."
