What a delight it was discovering Bobby Darin's music as a child growing up in the '50s! Our parents had Frank Sinatra, and us kids had Bobby Darin

the more i go into his library the more my mind is blown. absolutely show-stopping

Really comforting, catchy and easy-going tunes. The swing stuff, that is. I'm not very fond of his folk-y, country side of his career. Either way, his voice is undeniably pleasant to listen to--and spans a wider range than you'd think at first glance.

Folk music fans should check out Darin's Commitment album! It was re-released on LP a few years ago, and copies should still be knocking about in shops and online. I'm shocked at how few listens it has on here.
