The Hit Singles Collection

CD Details

Bobby Darin was a remarkably versatile performer who constantly reinvented his sound throughout his career. After breaking through with energetic rock and roll hits like “Splish Splash,” “Queen of the Hop,” and “Dream Lover” in the late 1950s, he shifted direction toward sophisticated pop standards, famously winning a Grammy with his rendition of “Mack the Knife” and scoring with the French-influenced “Beyond the Sea.” Throughout the early 1960s, Darin continued to surprise audiences by tackling everything from American standards like “Clementine” and “Bill Bailey, Won’t You Please Come Home” to folk-influenced material and Nashville-influenced pop songs, proving he was far more than a one-style artist.

This CD from Elektra/Wea collects 20 of his most successful recordings across multiple genres and decades. The album features all the major hits mentioned above plus deeper cuts that showcase his range as a vocalist and interpreter of songs. You can own this collection of Bobby Darin’s greatest moments on CD at a used price.
