Hi. Bing’s four sons were to inherit money from their dad in their mid-sixties, not in their “80s …… Bing’s commercially recorded titles number well into the 2,000s, not the 1,700s……. The official Crosby website is http://www.bingcrosby.com…. Bing was certainly a pioneering Jazz singer, according to the most esteemed jazz vocal critics-historians of all time: Gary Giddins, Will Friedwald, Nat Hentoff, Dave Dexter, etc….. Other small glitches in this piece, but these are the ones that jumped out at me. Thanks – Arne Fogel, host, “BING’S BASEMENT†& “THE BING SHIFTâ€. Bingcrosby.com, Kbem-FM Jazz88.
Thank you, Arne, for your comment. The text will be revised to make those corrections. Thank you again for taking the time to help make New World Encyclopedia a valuable information resource.
