| - Bobby Darin Born Walden Robert Cassotto is an album by American singer Bobby Darin, released in 1968 on Darin's own label, Direction, just one month after the formation of the label was announced in the trade press. That article stated that "his first LP is controversial in the sense that it establishes a new image. The songs are built on Darin's feeling for people and his concern for a troubled society." Bobby Darin Born Walden Robert Cassotto is the first of only two albums containing all-Darin compositions (the other is the follow-up, Commitment), and was originally released in a gatefold sleeve containing the lyrics to the songs on the inside and some of Darin's poetry and musings on the back. 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. Other songs on the album dealt with issues such as the environment ("Questions"), the Vietnam War ("The Proper Gander"), capitalism ("Jingle Jangle Jungle") and organised religion ("Sunday"). The final song, "In Memoriam", featuring just Darin and an acoustic guitar, finds the singer/songwriter recounting the events of the funeral of Robert Kennedy. It is said that Darin was the last to leave the graveside, and it was Kennedy's death that was largely responsible for Darin starting the Direction label. The album was released on CD in 2007 by the Edsel label, and saw it paired with Bobby Darin Sings Doctor Dolittle. (en)
