About this listen
There are great musicians and singers that transcend musical genera and boundaries. But how about someone who started with a very silly novelty rock and roll song, but ended up a night club act and a Las Vegas star that rivaled Frank Sinatra doing jazz standards while still appealing to young teens and adult audiences at the same time.
Big band swing and rock and roll were not just worlds apart, but the two had zero respect for each other. Yet Bobby Darin was able to do just that. He moved back and forth between swing and rock and roll. But big band swing and rock and roll had moved on...
But 70 years later his music lives on with a smash Broadway play that brings the nightclub experience to a new audience.
