Bobby Darin - 1956-1962 Singles [New CD] Rmst, With Book, Spain - Impo

2-CD SET

This 2-CD, 64-track set presents Darin’s 1956-62 singles. The singer started as a songwriter for Connie Francis, and recorded his own first million-seller “Splish Splash” in 1958. This was followed by “Mack the Knife” (which climbed to #1 in the Billboard pop and UK charts and stayed there for 26 weeks); “Dream Lover” (#2 Pop and #1 UK), and “Beyond the Sea” (#6 Pop and #8 UK), which brought him worldwide fame. All of the aforementioned hits are present on this collection, along with Darin’s other wonderful singles from that period, including both A and B sides.
