Bobby Darin - If I Were A Carpenter

[@PeterMorris-b7h]

Great copy of a great song.The best is by the guy who wrote it and played guitar whilst singing it for a complete performance of sheer magic and compassion Tim Hardin.He should get the recognition he deserves

48th anniversary of Bobby Darin's sad passing just yesterday. He remains a timeless legend.

One of the very best versions of this song, sad loss of talent. RIP

Bear For the singer and writer of this song. Both died too young.

Smooth. He was born to sing this song. Kinda like the wind was meant to be a cool breeze.

[@kimmullins3098]

As powerful and memorable as I remember as a little girl.

[@micheleatlilacsrust5785]

"Would you still love me" @ 1:23 how beautifully he sang that line. As much as I love the recorded version he did of this song, this performance is absolutely sublime. What a talent.

Thanks Michele for tuning in.

On this day in 1966 {September 24th} Bobby Darin's "If I Were A Carpenter" entered Billboard's Hot Top 100 chart; eventually it peaked at #8 and spent 11 weeks on the Top 100...
It was the last of Bobby Darin's nine Top 10 records with one reaching #1, that being "Mack the Knife" for 9 weeks in 1959...
Three other covered versions have charted; The Four Tops {#20 in 1968}, Johnny Cash & June Carter {#36 in 1970}, and Bob Seger {#76 in 1972}...
Mr. Darin passed away on Dec. 20th, 1973...
