Mack The Knife

Mack The Knife (Weill, Blitzstein, Brecht) - Bobby Darin
c/w Was There A Call For Me (Harris, Holmes) 1959


Walden Robert Cassotto or Bobby Darin to you and I scored a UK and US No.1 with the Kurt Weill and Bertolt Brecht penned 'Mack The Knife'.

A teen idol and big band performer he died at only 37 years old in 1973, here he's performing the song made famous in 1956 by Louis Armstrong
