Bobby Darin - Commitment - COMPACT DISCS [CD]
About This Item
- Details
- Genre: Folk
- Description: Bobby Darin was, by any definition, a superstar - a chart-topping, multimillion-selling, Grammy Award-winning singer-songwriter, a Golden Globe-winning actor, visionary entrepreneur, and committed political activist. Restless and daring, his refusal to be constrained by genre, resulting in an endless string of top 10 hits, including InchSplish Splash,Inch InchQueen of the Hop,Inch InchDream Lover,Inch InchBeyond the Sea,Inch and InchIf I Were a Carpenter.Inch While his public persona was all bright lights and glamour, Darin was driven and inspired by the generational shifts and social upheaval of the 1960s. Despite his weakened health, Darin devoted nearly all of his free time towards multiple causes, tirelessly campaigning for his friend Robert F. Kennedy until his assassination in June 1968, after which Darin withdrew from the spotlight and embarked on an unlikely personal journey. He swapped his crooner's tuxedo for folk singer denim, his toupee for an outlaw mustache, a Beverly Hills mansion for a secluded trailer at Pfeiffer Beach in Big Sur. Commitment is grittier and more audacious than Darin's previous work. From the counterculture anthem InchMe and My HohnerInch (with it's ironic reference to InchThe Star-Spangled BannerInch) and the soul-searching InchSausalitoInch to the wryly autobiographical InchDistractions (Part 1)Inch and the tense funk of InchLight Blue,Inch the album's experimentation and free-wheeling songcraft affirm Darin as a generational talent uniquely capable of crossing the borders of age and politics. Album Tracks 1. Me and Mr. Hohner 2. Sugar Man 3. Sausalito (The Governors Song) 4. Song for a Dollar 5. The Harvest 6. Distractions, Pt. 1 7. Water Color Canvas 8. Jive 9. Hey Magic Man 10.
