"Sinatra was,
to say the least, a formidable competitor in the pop market,
but Darin somehow managed to carve out his own niche establishing
himself as a consummate vocalist and performer. Although I'm
a fan of both of these icons, Darin arguably was looser on his
feet than Frank and certainly was a sassier singer as is evident
in his unrivaled version of 'Mack The Knife.'
What Bobby Darin
achieved in a seemingly short period of time did not come as
the result of a miracle but from the sheer talent that the singer
possessed."
