This Is Darin is an album by Bobby Darin, released in 1960. It was on the Billboard charts for 50 weeks and peaked at number six, his highest charting album. It also reached number four in the United Kingdom. Richard Wess arranged and conducted the material for the album.
Music critic J.T. Griffith wrote in his Allmusic review, "This Is Darin showcases his confident phrasing with some moments of humor and a few trademark 'hut hut's (six in the first song!)... Gone is the bobby-sock rock of 'Splish Splash' and even the crossover appeal of 'Mack the Knife.' In its place is a more mature Bobby Darin aiming for adult—not pop—credibility... This Is Darin is highly recommended if you have long since tired of the Swingers soundtrack and want to discover Darin's more traditional fare."[1]
