The Bing Crosby Internet Museum to which you provide a link was closed down a year ago.
There are two possible fan sites of interest – The Bing Magazine site http://www.bingmagazine.co.uk/
and Crosby Fan World at http://crosbyfanworld.boardhost.com/
In addition there is a more or less complete discography at http://www.jazzdiscography.com/Artists/Crosby/crosby.html

Hi. Bing’s four sons were to inherit money from their dad in their mid-sixties, not in their “80s”……… Bing’s commercially recorded titles number well into the 2,000s, not the 1,700s……. The official Crosby website is http://www.bingcrosby.com…. Bing was certainly a pioneering Jazz singer, according to the most esteemed jazz vocal critics-historians of all time: Gary Giddins, Will Friedwald, Nat Hentoff, Dave Dexter, etc….. Other small glitches in this piece, but these are the ones that jumped out at me. Thanks – Arne Fogel, host, “BING’S BASEMENT” & “THE BING SHIFT”. Bingcrosby.com, Kbem-FM Jazz88.
