4 stars A Different Darin
In his final years, Bobby recorded some of his own compositions, mainly folk, blues and ballads. There are also, some live recordings at the Troubador in L.A. Interesting album.

5 stars Shedding Light on a Little-Known Period of Darin's Career
For the most part, Bobby Darin's recordings of the late '60's remain almost unknown to most listeners. Unless you collect vinyl, most of Darin's work from these years is inaccessible, recorded at a time when Darin was attempting to run his own label (Direction Records). The singles recorded for Direction (and the two albums) made little impact, and most reviewers today dismiss these recordings as an ill-advised foray into the folk-protest music of the day. This release may go some way to setting that record straight. "Songs From Big Sur" is composed of some of Darin's Direction singles, unreleased masters, and some (nowhere near all) album tracks from the two Direction albums ("Bobby Daring Born Walden Robert Cossotto" and "Commitment"). In addition, there are a handful of earlier tracks originally recorded for Atlantic (in 1967), and the CD concludes with live recordings from 1969 at LA's Troubador. While most of this material appears on CD for the first time, there is some duplication of content (3 or 4 tracks) with Varese Sarabande's earlier "Very Best of Bobby Darin," a release which chronicled the years 1966 to 1969. This CD testifies to Darin's astonishing versatility. The material couldn't be further from "Mack the Knife," yet Darin's performances in this genre are as committed and authentic as anyone's. Audiences may not have wanted to accept Darin without the tuxedo, the swing, and the swagger, but "Songs from Big Sur" makes it abundantly clear that there was nothing inferior or second-rate to what Darin was doing at this time. Maybe the late '60's "Bob Darin" (as he was calling himself at the time) will finally get his due. This is an essential CD for any Darin fan. And, hopefully, we may still get the Direction albums complete on CD at some point in the future.

VH1 Presents The Corrs Live In Dublin CD  (2002)

Big Sur album
CD $6.39  4.3 stars Top 500 Audio Samples
This audio document of The Corrs' Dublin homecoming concert has pretty much everything fans of Irish pop could wish for, including an appearance from Bono in his earthly incarnation, fresh from an audience with President George W. Bush. It's to the band's credit that the charismatic singer fails to steal the show, despite creditable efforts via an anthemized version of Ryan Adams' beautifully downtempo "When the Stars Go Blue," and a great, leering rendition of Lee Hazlewood and Nancy Sinatra's "Summer Wine." Somewhat more mysteriously, Rolling Stone Ron Wood also turns up on what sounds dangerously close to a lounge version of Jimi Hendrix's "Little Wing," but this minor faux pas is redeemed by the Irish folk medley "Joy of Life/Trout in the Bath" which arguably features more full-on Irishness than the Dublin production of RIVERDANCE. There's also a lovely rendition of Neil Young's "Only Love Can Break Your Heart" that's ...

Big Sur CD music
CD $7.59  4.4 stars Top 100 Audio Samples Definitive Album
A surprise best-seller when it was first released, this mostly improvised pairing of singer/keyboardist/producer Al Kooper with two major guitar heroes of the day sounds fascinating all these years later precisely because of the distance of time--nobody makes records like this any more. The material runs the gamut from folk pop (covers of Donovan and Dylan), to blues ("Albert's Shuffle," "You Don't Love Me"), to heady jams ("His Holy Modal Majesty"), to big-band jazz ("Harvey's Tune"). All the tunes make effective templates for the kind off-the-cuff music-making that in less capable hands might have resulted in simple noodling. In fact, although Bloomfield and Stills don't play together on any of the cuts (Bloomfield played on one side of the original LP, Stills on the other), all three principals get off lots of good licks and producer Kooper has some interesting tricks up his sleeve, as in the over-the-top phasing he lavishes on "You Don't Love Me." The only real disappointment here is that Stills, a far better singer than Kooper, never opens his mouth. Those familiar with the Live Adventures album these two recorded at the Fillmore West know how brilliant they could be on stage, and here's another gem, recorded ...

Alexis Korner Kornerstoned: Anthology 1958-1983 CD  (2004) (Import) United Kingdom

Big Sur album
CD $25.19
While MUSICALLY RICH...AND FAMOUS documents the second half of British blues godfather Alexis Korner's career, KORNERSTONED adopts a more comprehensive approach, following the pioneering singer/guitarist from the very beginning of his musical life, all the way through every subsequent phase of his development. So we get not only his mid-1960s work with burgeoning blues-rock giants like Paul Rodgers and Steve Marriott, but also his `50s skiffle recordings (basically the British version of jug-band music) with the Ken Colyer band and his own skiffle group, and even an early acoustic guitar duel with famed fingerpicker Davey Graham on "3/4 A.D." Over the course of its two ...
