Bing & Satchmo is a 1960 studio album by Bing Crosby and Louis Armstrong that was arranged and conducted by Billy May. The album was recorded for Crosby's label, Project Records, and released by MGM. Crosby and Armstrong worked together many times before they recorded this album, appearing in films such as Pennies from Heaven (1936), Here Comes the Groom (1951), and High Society (1956). They made several radio broadcasts together between 1949 and 1951.

Exclusive discount for Prime members. Sample this album Artist (Sample). The success of HIGH SOCIETY, and a September 1959 Crosby TV special featuring Armstrong, became the impetus for this album, recorded in late June, early July 1960 for MGM Records and Crosby's own label Project Records. A handful of tracks appeared on two so-called 'greatest hits' packages of both Bing & Louis respectively in the early 1990s on the Curb label. This version contains the original cover artwork from the 1960 MGM.

Listen to the Bing Crosby and Louis Armstrong collection, Bing & Satchmo, right now. An enormous influence. The jazz trumpet star, who was friends with Crosby for nearly half a century, had an enormous influence on the singing style of the young singer from Tacoma, Washington. Highlights on the album include Armstrong jamming on Horace Silver’s composition ‘Preacher’, though there was little press fanfare for the record because, as Billboard reported in October 1960, when the album came out, Crosby was in England with his wife playing golf, and Armstrong was on a state visit to the Congo. Crosby said he had happy memories of Bing & Satchmo. As he put it: I never met anybody that didn’t love Louis that ever saw him work or ever has encountered him, had any connection or any business with hi. ny time I ever worked with Louis it was just a pleasure to be around.

New Orleans jazz was not only Armstrong's spiritual home, but it was also the venue for both singers' easiest and most playful lyricizing, replete with a raft of off-the-cuff lines (or seemingly off-the-cuff lines) and the easy give-and-take that came naturally to them, nearly (but never) stepping over each other's lines
