Bobby Darin

"Rare Performances"

This CD is a collection of LIVE bootleg performances of Mr. Darin. "Rare Performances"(TCD 101) contains three different excerpts of Darin performing in concert. The first songs are from around 1967. Although the audio is a little fuzzy because it was picked up from Darin's mircophone and the band is barely audible, this is a classic performance of BD. Included are "Don't Rain on My Parade", "Shadow of Your Smile","I've Got you Under My Skin" among others. Tracks 12-15 are from a live performance in Vegas and includes "Ace In the hole" and "The Curtain Falls".(NOT the versions on the Rhino box set) A live concert in London is featured in tracks 16-20 and includes the songs "About A Quarter Till Nine" and " I Wish I were In Love again". Kind of pricey at around 30 bucks,this cd was last seen available at STASH records in Nov.1995.
