Life is indeed full of little surprises and... this... is one of them. The good folks at DELTA LEISURE deserve a lot of credit for releasing a most interesting package of DARIN goodies. Included are some of his early work on the (American) Decca label - SILLY WILLY, ROCK ISLAND LINE; rarities from his days as a teenage idol - MIGHTY MIGHTY MAN, NOW WE'RE ONE ; the flip side to MACK THE KNIFE (MTK), his beautiful rendition of WAS THERE A CALL FOR ME; forgotten hits - WHILE I'M GONE, PLAIN JANE; "B" sides - JUDY, DON'T BE MOODY, LOST LOVE; selections from his early albums - SOFTLY, AS IN A MORNING SUNRISE, SHE NEEDS ME; the BIG hits - BEYOND THE SEA, MTK! In a nutshell, a 2CD set over which DARIN fans will drool and a welcome introduction to a magnificient talent for those who came in late!
