On the Happy Side was a long-playing vinyl album recorded by Bing Crosby for his own company, Project Records and issued by Warner Bros. Records (W1482) in 1962. The album is in a “sing along” style and Crosby over-dubbed his vocals on accompaniment recorded in London earlier in April 1962. The musical arrangements were by Bob Thompson, Jack Halloran and Peter Matz. The album has never been released in CD form.
Reception
Billboard said: “This is one of Bing’s best albums in some time. He sings a collection of old favorites in straight style, aided by good ork arrangements…Good songs, well sung, and plenty of time, should help this set sell."
