Bobby Darin

BIOGRAPHY

Bobby Darin was, by any definition, a superstar – a chart-topping, multimillion-selling, Grammy Award-winning singer-songwriter, a Golden Globe-winning actor, visionary entrepreneur, and committed political activist. Now, in commemoration of the fiftieth anniversary of his tragic 1973 passing from heart disease at just 37 years old, the Bobby Darin Estate is proud to officially relaunch Direction Records, the groundbreaking label founded by Darin in 1968. Distributed by Secretly Distribution, the Direction Records collection kicks off with the release of five classic albums recorded between 1966 and 1967 and newly reverted to the Bobby Darin Estate, all available on digital platforms for the first time on July 14. The new releases include: Bobby Darin Sings The Shadow Of Your Smile (1966), In A Broadway Bag (1966), If I Were A Carpenter (1966), Inside Out (1967), and Bobby Darin Sings Doctor Doolittle (1967). A special trailer heralding the return of Direction Records is streaming now at the official Bobby Darin YouTube channel.
