The good news coming from UK label Demon/Edsel just never seems to stop. First, they gift Bobby Darin fans with re-issues of the “Shadow of Your Smile/In a Broadway Bag” and “If I Were a Carpenter/Inside Out” 2-on-1 CDs… and now, they’re bringing us a 2-on-1 disc containing the “Bobby Darin Sings Doctor Dolittle” and […]

Holey moley, what a performance! Young Bobby Darin drives the crowd into a frenzy with a medley that begins with “Swing Low, Sweet Chariot” and builds to an incredible rave-up version of “When the Saints Go Marching In.” Just watch those hands and those snappin’ fingers as they guide the audience and drive the melody […]
