March 5, 2023 Record of the Day

It was D.J. Murray the K who co-wrote “Splish Splash,” one of Bobby Darin’s biggest hits. Credit was given to Jean Murray as to avoid any hint of payola. “Splish Splash” hit #3 on the Billboard chart in 1958. The original 45, released on ATCO Records, is worth no more than $25.00. However, the 78 RPM version can get you $125.00 today. Both are shown here.
