Music critic Andrew Hamilton wrote in his Allmusic review on the 1994 CD reissue "Somebody tried to remake Darin into a young Dean Martin and failed. Only the most ardent Bobby Darin fans should consider purchasing this CD."[1]

gollark: It's weird, since people's *hands* aren't getting bigger.
gollark: Alternatively, at least a nuclear-powered watch, so I can avoid the hassle of changing the battery every 7 years.
gollark: RTG-powered phones really *would* be convenient.
gollark: Which for some EXTREMELY ANNOYING reason, rarely let you replace the battery without problems.
gollark: No, I mean in phones.
