Our Take

In a world of moody indie darlings and brooding alternative rockers, Bobby Darin is like a ray of sunshine bursting through the clouds. The Bobby Darin Story is a delightful romp through the iconic singer's greatest hits, a showcase of his astonishing talent and charisma.

From the infectious swing of "Mack the Knife" to the smooth crooning of "Beyond the Sea," Darin's versatility and charm shine through on every track. His voice is like velvet, effortlessly gliding through each note with a playful, cheeky twinkle in his eye. It's impossible not to be charmed by his infectious energy and charisma.

But it's not just Darin's vocals that make this album a timeless classic. The arrangements are slick and vibrant, with lush orchestrations and toe-tapping rhythms that will transport you straight to the glamorous world of 1960s Las Vegas. It's like a musical time capsule, capturing the essence of a bygone era with style and panache.

So grab a cocktail, kick back, and let Bobby Darin's smooth, suave sounds wash over you. The Bobby Darin Story is a musical journey you won't want to miss, a dazzling showcase of one of the greatest entertainers of all time. Cheers to Bobby Darin, the original king of cool.

About the artist

Bobby Darin

Bobby Darin, the ultimate triple threat in the world of music. Not only was he a talented singer, but he was also a songwriter and actor, making him a force to be reckoned with in the industry. With his smooth vocals and charismatic stage presence, Darin quickly rose to fame in the late 1950s and early 1960s. Born Walden Robert Cassotto, Darin adopted his stage name to distance himself from his Italian-American roots. This move was a clever one, as it allowed him to break into the mainstream music scene with ease. His breakout hit, "Splish Splash", was a catchy tune that showcased his unique blend of rock and roll with elements of jazz and swing. Darin's versatility as an artist was evident in his ability to effortlessly switch between genres. From the upbeat "Mack the Knife" to the heartfelt "Beyond the Sea", Darin proved he could tackle any musical style with ease. It's no wonder he earned a Grammy Award for Best New Artist in 1959. But Darin's talent wasn't just limited to music. He also made a name for himself in Hollywood, starring in films like "Come September" and "Pressure Point". His on-screen presence was just as captivating as his musical performances, solidifying his status as a true entertainment powerhouse. Unfortunately, Darin's life was cut short at the young age of 37 due to heart failure. But his legacy lives on through his timeless music and unforgettable performances. Bobby Darin may have left us too soon, but his impact on the music industry will never be forgotten.
