Bobby Darin Tribute Record released today!

"Yo! Bobby," the Waverly Seven's 2-disc tribute to the legendary Bobby Darin, is out today on Anzic Records. This New York jazz outfit has put together 24 tracks of pure brilliance, saluting the great Mr. Darin with kickin' interpretations of "Splish Splash," "The Good Life," "I Wanna Be Around," "The More I See You," and "Some of These Days" (to name-drop a few). Clearly, these young jazz musicians know their Darin, because they also offer up versions of several lesser known Darin classics, including "I Guess I'm Good for Nothing But the Blues," "Work Song," and "Black Coffee." It's taken decades, but at last, the jazz world is giving Bobby his due. Love it!

You can get Waverly Seven's "Yo! Bobby" on the DarinLand.com site.
