On this day in Rock and Roll History - May 19 1958 Bobby Darin's "Splish Splash" was released by Atco Records. Darin co-wrote the song with DJ Murray the K (Kaufman), who bet that Darin could not write a song that began with the words, "Splish splash, I was takin' a bath", as suggested by Murray's mother, Jean Kaufman. It was the first recording made on an eight track recorder at Atlantic Records and would eventually reach #3 in America and #18 in Great Britain. | Johnny Rock and Roll Radio
