Recorded and released originally in 1976 Plum Records has reissued BORN WITH A SMILE to accommodate the growing demand for Bobby's music.
At the time of this recording Bobby had endured the Teen Idol period and had weathered several musical changes including the British Invasion, the Soul Explosion and the Psychedelic Trip. In 1976 a new type of music called Disco was emerging and that influence is evident in these recordings. "Tomorrow is Today" is an early Billy Joel composition and "It's Getting Better" is from the super songwriting team of Barry Mann & Cynthia Weil. Two of Bobby's biggest hits, "Wild One" and "Sway" are re-done to a disco beat. "Wild One" has been done twice in the album, in two separate arrangements that are incredible! This album is a must-have for any Bobby Rydell fan!
