Rising to prominence in the 1940s and 1950s, he became a familiar voice on records, radio and screen, delivering standards and showtunes with a smooth, approachable style. MacRae often performed material drawn from Broadway and Hollywood, and his recordings showcase a classic crooner approach informed by clear diction and tasteful phrasing. He remains associated with the golden era of American popular song and with an easygoing, melodic delivery that appealed to a wide audience.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis release pairs two original Gordon MacRae albums on a single CD: The Best Things In Life Are Free and Motion Picture Soundstage.
