| dbo:abstract | Earthy! is an album of folk songs by American singer Bobby Darin, released in 1963, and arranged by Walter Raim. The album was reissued on CD in 2002 with Darin's release Golden Folk Hits. Earthy! was recorded on July 24, 28, 30 and 31, 1962, and was Darin's first album of folk material, although he had recorded and performed songs in the genre before, from "Timber", recorded at his first professional recording session, through to his self-penned "Jailer Bring Me Water". Darin had also performed "I'm Just a Country Boy" on his 1960 UK TV special. Darin had told columnist Hedda Hopper in December 1961 that "I believe there's a field for folk songs now and will do some of them." When Darin recorded the album less than a year later, he chose his material from a wide range of sources, including spirituals, songs by the current crop of folk singer-songwriters, the jazz number "Work Song", a country song by Hank Williams, a faux sea shanty, and a number of traditional songs from around the world. Darin incorporated some of the songs into his live act around this time, including adding a folk section into his Las Vegas shows. "Work Song" and "I'm on My Way Great God" were both recorded live in Las Vegas in November 1963 and included on The Curtain Falls: Live at the Flamingo posthumous release in 2000. A 1971 live version of Work Song was issued as a bonus track on the 2005 reissue of the Live at the Desert Inn album. Bobby also sang songs recorded for Earthy! on a number of TV appearances, including The Judy Garland Show and The Dinah Shore Chevy Show. Earthy! was due to be released in February 1963, but was pushed back until the middle of the year due to the success of the "You're the Reason I'm Living" single and the decision to build an album around that to capitalise on that success.
