Bobby Darin Born Walden Robert Cassotto is an album by American singer Bobby Darin, released in 1968.
Contents
Darin's birth name was Walden Robert Cassotto. The album did not chart, although "Long Line Rider", which was about the corruption in Arkansas prison farms uncovered by Tom Murton, reached number 79 on the singles charts. It was released by Darin's own Direction label.
Reception
Music critic JT Griffith wrote in his Allmusic review "The least-essential record to casual fans. But possibly the most important Darin record for those who wish to better understand the man's love for music and his quest for artistic truth... An overlooked masterpiece painted in bold, personal strokes."
