Here's a Canadian Decca pressing of Bing Crosby's "When Irish Eyes Are Smiling" from 1956, capturing Der Bingle at the height of his interpretive powers during what many consider his golden period with the label. This collection finds Crosby diving deep into Irish traditional and popular songs, delivering them with that unmistakable warm baritone and effortless phrasing that made him the most influential vocalist of his generation. The album was part of Decca's strategic push into themed vocal collections during the mid-50s, and Crosby's Irish heritage made this a natural fit – his maternal grandfather was Irish, and he'd been incorporating Celtic melodies into his repertoire since his early days with Paul Whiteman's orchestra.
