"Fancy Meeting You Here", recorded with Rosemary Clooney and Billy May's Orchestra, was Bing Crosby's ninth LP.

In its review, "Time" magazine called this album, "An infectious musical dialogue between two of the sassiest fancy talkers in the business. C. & C. give slick and witty readings to a selection of retreads — On a Slow Boat to China, You Came a Long Way from St. Louis — and introduce a punchy, potential hit named Calcutta. One of the most intriguing vocal entertainments since Noel Coward had his famous chat with Mary Martin."
