Like everything else he did, Bobby Darin’s approach to country music was entirely unique. He could deliver a completely traditional reading of a song, or take it in a new and exciting direction. In the case of the Harlan Howard number “Sally Was A Good Old Girl,” (from the 1963 Capitol album “You’re the Reason […]

This clip from the “Seeing is Believing” DVD demonstrates the incredible versatility of the one and only Mr. Bobby Darin. No one could get inside a song like Bobby, and no one could draw so much raw, real emotion from a lyric as Bobby could. His take on the Nat Adderley/Oscar Brown, Jr. tune “Work […]
