Darin was so immensely talented--incredible!! (If you only heard the audio you would never know it was an imitation of Durante--that's how spot on his vocal was!!)
Much though Darrin was too square for my tasts, I have to give it to you. Darrin shone here (possibly due to Durantes presence?) With natural laughter puring through rather than staged laughter, and YES! That Durante impression was a winner. With Mt being short sighted, and before the camera zoomed in, I just accepted it as Durante in overly trendy tight bottomed pegged pants more along to teddy boys than musical hall heroes. Yeh, excellent episode of this show, and an exceptional performance from Darrin with Durante.
This is priceless watching the two of them playing off each other in this skit. Even Jimmy Durante was in ore of Bobby 'Drain's multi-talent and enjoyed working with him. The greats of the Hollywood show business world were in ore of Bobby and his total unique talents, knowing awesome talent when they saw it in front of them. Everyone who had a show on air wanted Bobby on their show, they got him. The most unique,versatile, multi-talented, singer, song writer, actor, producer, music publisher, impressionist, comedian, multi instrumentalist and more. Most of all, a great father to his son, Dodd who was the love of his life. "Dad taught me many life long lessons knowing full well his own life was running short and he needed to install wisdom in me before it was too late to do so", Dodd has said. Unique one of a kind human being the likes of the world will never see again. Bobby Darin rest in peace……… loved and remembered forever more.
+EDITH SYMMANS Bobby Darin died far too early. If he had lived, he would have been alongside Tony Bennett as joint Number One talents. As for Jimmy Durante, people still do impressions of him today.......another much-missed giant.
This still gives me a thrill after all these years….. I remember watching this with my mother and younger brothers….. They were the days of fantastic shows and safer times in life….. Sadly no more….. Bobby's multi-talents still out shines singers of today by far…… Bobby Darin and Jimmy Durante at their best…… REST IN PEACE BOBBY DARIN AND JIMMY DURANTE LOVED & REMEMBERED Thanks for this Jan I live looking in on all your clips, sweet memories of days gone by.
Oh my gosh....I remember this on our old black & white TV! (3 channels....that was it!) Back in the days when most shows were live. So many good memories of home! There will never be another Jimmy Durante.....ever!
He was also a great songwriter! He started his career as a song writer for Connie Francis! Bobby Darin wrote and co-wrote a bunch of his own hits like Splish Splash. A great multi talented entertainer who also had success in the movies! He left us way too soon in 1973.
Wow, a lot going on here, multitalented Bobby Darin. Darin was spot on with his impersonation in the opening, I actually thought is was Jimmy Durante and didn't realize it until Jimmy came out on stage. Durante was one of the Greatest among Vaudeville Performers, and Darin too was outstanding at vaudeville even though he came along years later, he performed vaudeville routines with some of the greats like Bob Hope, Bing Crosby, Jimmy Durante, George Burns, Dean Martin, and many others and was right up to parr with them. He was younger than them and sadly died before most of them.
These six minutes are funnier than any current comedy I've seen! Let's say current goes back 15 years, I wish talent like this could come back! Actually funny, wholesome comedy!!
Thank you, thank you, a great show, oh how I miss those days. Bobby Darin flirted with my girlfriend when he was doing a show in Detroit back in the 50s.
Sadly, many folks today don't realize what fabulous talent used to exist. Darin was not only a singer, but an Academy Award nominated actor, producer, song writer, played multiple musical instruments, and did impressions of celebrities.
Fabulous! Many thanks to Jan Hammer for posting this entertainment the way I remember entertainment. Here are two very talented Italians working to help us forget our troubles, relax and laugh it up!
Wow! What a treat! Two of my long long long-time favorite guys together! Thanx so so much, Jan, for sharing! This clip is especially special to me, as it was from a show on 25 years of cancer research, and I'm currently in remission with AML. Thanx again, Jan, you brightened my day. RIP, Jimmy and Bobby, and thanx for the magic, music, and memories.
Bob, I am a 1952 model too. I just loved this music. Too bad we don't have this now a days. Thanks to the people who take the time to share this with others .
Always fantastic to see these clips LOL 😂 ''Wait a minute, wait a minute'' ''Walking around with a face eleven 11miles long !!'' ''I'm kind of a Splish Splash myself'' Absolutely fantastic !!!😂
Really entertaining to see a prime smoothie square like Darrin let loose and be the butt of the joke, made all the more special by the countlessly imitated "Schnozel" Durante. With Durante as ever living up to his catch phrase song that it all comes from the heart, right from the start. Very much giggle-fodder as they both take the mick out of themselves. Classic stuff that'll live forever so long as there are people with breath to laugh and love.
A genuine period-piece, and yet... TIMELESS. **JAN HAMMER Thanks for checking in with us and for sharing your thoughts. @@Jan Hammer You're welcome... ...and y'know, there's a celebrated fusion keyboardist and soundtrack composer with your name... Addendum: It happens fast, but the intro to the bit is by Burt Lancaster. (How effing cool is that?)
When Burt Lancaster introduced just Jimmy Durante, I wondered why not Bobby Darin also. Then I saw just (Jimmy?) and continued to wonder. But then the real Durante appeared and in close up Bobby Darin was revealed to have impersonated Durante -- PERFECTLY! A WoW moment for sure.

Darin's imitation is spot-on! And Durante's rendition of "Splish Splash" is priceless!
Jimmy Durante - priceless! Great entertainer and human being! Bobby Darin's impersonation at the start was amazing. Two of the greatest of all time.

Sadly Jimmy suffered a stroke before his scheduled 2/10/1973 live Birthday appearance in Chicago. Patti Page filled in for him. ♣
in awe

Wow, Old fashioned entertains that were worth watching. What do we have nowadays?
He was also a great songwriter! He started his career as a song writer for Connie Francis! Bobby Darin wrote and co-wrote a bunch of his own hits like Splish Splash. A great multi talented entertainer who also had success in the movies! He left us way too soon in 1973.
Their is no talented singers ,actors and musicians today Like These Two Guys!!!!
Outstanding! Two great talents.
that was lovely; they really had fun; I miss both of them so; I guess they're kicking some ass in the heavenly choir--
Thanks Suzanne for checking out my site and for sharing your thoughts.
thank you for finding this priceless little gem--
Hilarious to watch Jimmy singing Bobby's song Splish Splash followed by Bobby doing Jimmy's Inka dinka doo. Goodnight Mrs Calabash wherever you are.

Actually, it IS back through film, You Tube and Spotify!
Thank you, thank you, a great show, oh how I miss those days. Bobby Darin flirted with my girlfriend when he was doing a show in Detroit back in the 50s.
I wish we had talent like this again 🙂
Sadly, many folks today don't realize what fabulous talent used to exist. Darin was not only a singer, but an Academy Award nominated actor, producer, song writer, played multiple musical instruments, and did impressions of celebrities.
And a pretty darn good dancer!!
How great. Loved both Jimmy Durante and Bobby Darin. Great impersonation by Bobby Darin. I can't believe both are gone. All we have today is trash.
Fabulous! Many thanks to Jan Hammer for posting this entertainment the way I remember entertainment. Here are two very talented Italians working to help us forget our troubles, relax and laugh it up!
It doesn't get any better than this. what the hell ever happened to this country?
tonight , we began to heal our nation ......rebuke the creed of greed , everything is on the line , Vote Blue
Bill Hyder -you can say that again!!!
@Songs Mirth - you are what is wrong with America, moron !

We kicked God out of America...it was all downhill from there. President Trump is our last chance for redemption.

Jimmy durante outlived bobby darrin. Bobby died so early. Rip both😭
Bobby Should have played Jimmy in the never made biography. Sinatra as Clayton. Danny Thomas as Jackson.
W.O.W.
Frank Sinatra ends his rendition of Mack The Knife paying tribute to Satchmo, Ella & Bobby Darin.
Love it to death
😎😂😊👍

Durante was a terrific singer......don't believe me?
ask Tony Bennett....."I wish I could sing like jimmy Durante"........
what song does Bobby darin sing?
Samuel Caballero
“Mack The Knife!”
I’m old enough to remember Durante but to be honest I never found him funny or entertaining
