Free Music Notes for Legendary Bobby Darin
Free Music Review: Just a Memory
Hit: 3 Stars
The CD brought back memories. We saw Bobby perform at Lake Tahoe long ago, so I'll play it when I feel nostalgic.Free Music Review: Kind of disappointed
Hit: 2 Stars
This is tabbed the "Legendary" Bobby Darin, but it doesn't live up to such a lofty title. I must say that I bought this for a couple of his classic songs, especially Mack the Knife.
I should have paid more attention to the track listing because some of the more-known songs are Live versions in which he half-sings them, half-talks to the crowd. So if you're looking for the original versions of the songs, please look elsewhere.
That said, it is interesting to hear Darin in a sort of Vegas-lounge act setting. It gives you a definite feeling of the 60's rat-pack-era.
Overall though, I don't think it's worth the price and therefore I feel a tiny bit disappointed. It's not bad, but it's definitely not what I was hoping for. It won't make it into heavy rotation in my cd collection. Two stars.
