With the way that much music is going today, I would like to hear your opinion on the sampling of Bing's music. That is to say, taking parts of his songs and using them to generate entirely new songs.
The reason I ask is because many young people today are bombarded with an inordinate amount of music and, for some, it may be hard to be exposed to Bing. If Bing were samled and used in new music, it may help expose him more to the newer generation. Do you believe that it would be right to mix his music in with a new generation's style?

Hey there y'all! I am with Passion Impact, a 501(c)3 non-profit, and we were just given a Bing Crosby memorabilia item. A loving fan knitted a sweater for him in 1960 in honor of his Pittsburgh Pirates baseball team making it to the World Series. The sweater is in mint condition and there are documents that prove its legitimacy.
We are unsure as to its value and are looking to y'all to help us appraise it. In addition, we are looking for the best place to sell/auction it so that it doesn't wind up in a pawn shop.
Thank you for your help. Long live Crosby's music
Stefan
The documents that prove its legitimacy are from Kathryn Crosby with her signature.
