You mean Perry Coma?

I'd say Perry Como was just as relaxed, if not more so, but not as

> Has there ever been a more relaxed singer than Bing Crosby? Listening to this jazzy
> 160-song set, which features Der Bingle effortlessly swinging through the Great American
> Songbook with energetic and inventive keyboard whiz Buddy Cole and his trio, leads
> one to conclude that the answer is no. The great majority of these sides have never
> been released, and the sound quality and quality of Crosby's performances, from "The
> Nearness of You" to "Try a Little Tenderness," are impressively high throughout.
> Outstanding. (7 CDs, $119.)
