Bobby Darin sings "Sally Was a Good Old Girl"

Like everything else he did, Bobby Darin's approach to country music was entirely unique. He could deliver a completely traditional reading of a song, or take it in a new and exciting direction. In the case of the Harlan Howard number "Sally Was A Good Old Girl," (from the 1963 Capitol album "You're the Reason I'm Living") he opted for the latter. This is country that swings, propelled by horns and infused with Bobby's righteously rhythmic vocal style. To hear Bobby swingin' country, click the link:
