Default The Legendary Bobby Darin

Here is another well recorded CD, for its age. This (live) Hits Medley is fun to play loud.

Bobby was great! I'll have to pick this one up.

This may sound sacreligious, but have you ever given the soundtrack to Beyond The Sea with Kevin Spacey doing all of the vocals a listen?

He does a pretty damn good job, quite amazing actually.

Thanks, I will give it a try. When I was young I never cared much for him, but I found the Bio-Pic "Beyond the Sea" with Kevin Spacey to get me interested.

I have the Beyond the Sea soundtrack too. I agree that Spacey did a GREAT job both in the film and on the CD.

You are correct!

Spacey did a great job and this movie was really ignored by a lot of people which is too bad because it's entertaining both as a bio/pic and a musical.
