Bing Crosby had enjoyed unprecedented success during the 1940s with his discography showing six No.

Decca Records built on this by issuing a number of 78rpm album sets, some featuring freshly recorded material and others utilizing Crosby's back catalogue.

Most of these 78rpm albums were reissued as 10" vinyl LP's in subsequent years.
