Bobby Darin sang spirituals with more power and soul than almost anyone. This beautiful black and white footage of him singing “I’m On My Way, Great God” is bound to send shivers up your spine. Absolutely stunning.
Bobby’s studio recording of “I’m On My Way” originally appeared on the now out-of-print “Earthy” LP, but a live version […]

Talk about super early Bobby Darin! I’m not sure what year this is, but based on the fact that Bobby is introducing Duane Eddy playing his 1960 single “Shazam!”, I’m theorizing it was just about that time.

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 […]
