bobby darin’s late - ’60s turn into folk - rock bohemianism was exceptional from the start, beginning with its apparent authenticity. for all his lingering rat pack - ishness, darin had solid countercultural credentials. he was a mentor (and early employer) to the byrds’ roger mcguinn. he’d put tim hardin’s “if i were a carpenter” in the top 10. he was also an ardent supporter of robert kennedy, and even met kennedy during a stop on his presidential campaign just before his death .
august 2, 1969 tim hardin' s recording of
simple song of freedom
enters billboard chart; will peak at # 50 .
inductee: walden robert cassotto a. k. a. bobby darin (vocals, guitar, piano, songwriter; born may 14, 1936, died december 20, 1973 )
bobby darin - earthy! this original 1963 u. s. mono lp is still sealed! mint: we never grade any item
mint
! if you see the word
mint
used often, beware! near mint minus (nm -): an item that has very little (if any) use .
it’s also a much better album. if cassotto showed that darin could rip off the “day tripper” riff just like acid rockers a decade his junior, commitment proved that he actually had something to contribute to the musical conversation of the day. you can still pick out some apparent influences: the softer side of creedence clearwater revival’s swampy blues; the dead’s mellifluous folk - rock; the gentle blues - pop of the later beatles albums. he also tapped into some of country music’s insurgent hippie movement that had only barely started making waves, including kris kristofferson, whose song “sugar man” he gave a gently propulsive, motown - inflected reading .
commitment is also a deeply funky record, on a level that’s hard to believe comes from the same guy who recorded some of the squarest, un - funkiest hits in pop history. the whole album is full of stoned grooves that find a sweet spot between rolling country rhythms and soul syncopation similar to what was coming out of muscle shoals at the time, but it takes it even further by mixing in the choogling boogie that was being explored further up the california coast. (four decades later, the tastemaking reissue label light in the attic would select commitment ’s opening track, “me and mr. hohner, ” for the second volume of its country funk compilations. )
bobby darin flirted with many musical personae and rocked them all. versatile and ambitious, he conquered the hearts of teens, parents, rock and rollers and frank sinatra devotees before he was 25 .
edward jenner, an english country doctor from gloucestershire, administers the world’s first vaccination as a preventive treatment for smallpox, a disease that had killed millions of people over the centuries. while still a medical student, jenner noticed that milkmaids who had contracted a disease called cowpox, which caused blistering on cow’s ...
darin’s career took an interesting turn in the mid - sixties when he began recording material by a new breed of songwriters. his insightful reading of tim hardin’s “if i were a carpenter” became a top ten hit in 1966. a couple albums of original material written in a more folk - oriented vein followed. subsequently, hardin had a minor hit in 1969 with his recording of the darin - penned “simple song of freedom. ”

as revolutionary and uncompromising as commitment was, it also marked the end of darin’s outsider period. after a particularly dispiriting show in puerto rico, he did the sensible thing and went back to being “bobby” darin, with the tux and the hairpiece and the set full of well - known hits, his folk - singer identity reduced to the occasional nod in the form of, say, a funky but unchallenging take on “midnight special. ” as much further out as he was willing to go in his embrace of the counterculture, it still turned out to be just a phase .
among showbiz people, the response was just as polarized and, at times, even more rancorous. cbs refused to let him perform “long line rider” from cassotto due to its barbed lyrics about the recently uncovered widespread abuse within the arkansas state prison system. the media reported industry rumors that he was hosting drug - fueled orgies up in the big sur woods. dick clark, a longtime friend and one of darin’s biggest supporters, seemed personally insulted by his bohemian turn—clark called him a “latter - day hippie” and urged him to give audiences the slick, familiar bobby darin show they expected .

the reaction to darin’s radical makeover was mixed. according to members of his band, darin was occasionally able to bring audiences around to his new material, but he was more often met with heckling from people who’d paid to see him sing “mack the knife, ” “splish splash, ” and other hits that he’d excised from his set list. on subsequent tours, they played to half - empty rooms .

born on this day in 1936, bobby darin managed to achieve the goal he shared with life magazine early in his career: “i’d like to be a legend by the time i’m 25. ” his legendary career was cut short, however, when he died of heart failure in 1973 at the age of 37 .

instead of caving in to the criticism and peer pressure, darin doubled down on his one - man rebellion. less than a year after bobby darin born walden robert cassotto, he followed it up with another self - produced, self - released album with the meaningful title commitment that showed how little the intensely acrimonious criticism thrown his way over the preceding months had affected him. commitment is even folkier, even funkier, and even more incorrigibly countercultural than cassotto .

darin followed that song with the similarly infectious “queen of the hop” (number nine) and “dream lover” (number two), which marked his peak as a teen idol. then, in august 1959, he took the world by surprise with “mack the knife. ” the song spent nine weeks at number one and sold two million copies. it also won a grammy for record of the year, while darin won the grammy for best new artist. “mack the knife” became his signature song and appeared on the album that’s all (1959), which reflected his courting of a more adult audience .

while maintaining a prolific recording career, darin subsequently launched a career in films. in 1960 he appeared in his first film, come september. he then appeared in too late blues (1961) and 1963’s captain newman, m. d. he received an oscar nomination for best supporting actor for his role in the latter film. in 1960 he married actress sandra dee, whom he had met while filming come september. they had one son before divorcing in 1967. he ultimately appeared in about ten films .

sadly, darin had a history of heart problems. they had begun when he suffered from rheumatic fever as a child. on december 11, 1973, he was admitted to cedars - sinai medical center in los angeles to get repairs to artificial heart valves that had previously been implanted. on december 20, he died during surgery. he was only 37 years old .
darin died in 1973 at the age of 37 from complications of a surgery to repair the same heart damage that helped inspire his retreat to big sur. by then, he was back in good standing with the showbiz industry. when he was inducted into the rock and roll hall of fame in 1990, the most rock ’n’ roll part of his career never came up .
“beyond the sea, ” a remake of a 1945 french hit called “la mer, ” had a swinging, big band–style arrangement, and darin began moving into the nightclub circuit. he set an attendance record at the copacabana nightclub in new york and began playing casinos in las vegas. his three 1960 singles—“clementine, ” “won’t you come home bill bailey” and “artificial flowers”—were all in a more adult vein .

after the zeitgeist - tilting emergence of the youth counterculture in the mid - ’60s, musicians of every stripe, from blues men to vegas nightclub acts, were expected to release a “groovy” album even if they had never shown any previous interest in psychedelia. some were sincere attempts to engage with a new generation on their level, but most were blatant attempts at cashing in on a lucrative trend, and almost all of them were just phases that didn’t last much longer than it took to cut a few lennon - mccartney compositions .
