Far too often, when people think of Bobby Darin, they think of him as a far more effective swinger than a balladeer. It was just this topic that I was arguing with a friend of mine about recently. He stated that Darin was a superb swinger, on a level with the best of all-times but it was his ballad singing that really kept him from the elite group of male singers of that style of music. I immediately thought of this tune and played it for my friend. It's a old Gershwin song sung to a fare-thee-well by Al Jolsen back in the late 20s. Darin sings it convincingly with extremely sympathetic support from Richard Wess. Just as Sinatra had Nelson Riddle to provide him his most consistently great charts, I would say that Richard Wess was the same sort of partner in Darin's musical efforts. I have no information on the band members but I can say that my friend was impressed by this performance. Even still, he wouldn't admit that Darin had the chops for singing the great ballads. What do you guys think?

You are so right on. He could do it all. Thanks for this up load. I haven't heard this song from Bobby.

Bobby Darin is the best singer as far as I am concerned. This man can sing rings around even the so called best of them. Just listen to the amazing tones of Bobby's voice as it hits you right between the ears. You have to be deaf not to hear the total richness of Bobby's ballad version, it's the best ever.

Fabulous version of an underrated song - I can't understand why this song hasn't been recorded more often

His version of after you've gone is actually pretty uptempo and dramatic. It's not really a tender ballad. Go listen to "the other half of me". It's an amazing Bobby Darin ballad. I think this song is an amazing ballad too. Can't image anyone singing it better. Or go listen to his version of 'my buddy'. There's probably more good slow songs by him.

I enjoy Darin's ballads quite a lot, actually. I love the Django version of this song to death, but that version's only instrumental. I've recently been looking for a good vocal cover of this song, and I've got to say, Bobby Darin's is one of the best. I'm going to listen to a few more of his ballads so I can get a good feel for them, but you've at least got someone on your side as far as this song goes.

I don't get how you guys can consider Darin's ballad work as somehow not up to the standards of his uptempo stuff. If you ever get a chance to hear him sing "Who's Afraid Of Virginia Wolf?", you'll see what I'm talking about. Or when he sings "When I Look In Your Eyes". Darin was as good as anyone who ever did it in those performances. However, I recognize that this stuff is purely subjective so my opinion is just that...my opinion. But still.....

Actually I gotta agree with your friend. For some reason I've never really been able to resonate with Darin's ballads the way I do with his uptempo numbers. Not that they're sub-par performances, but something about them is just not quite "there" for me. Probably the only Darin ballad I could say I "like" is "After You've Gone", but that's relative to all his ballads, not his repertoire in general.

Acrtually, this was recorded in December 1965, when Wess was finishing up his work on "JEANNIE"...
