It premiered in Berlin in 1928. The song has become a popular standard. A moritat is a medieval version of the murder ballad performed by strolling minstrels, from mori meaning "deadly" and tat meaning "deed". In The Threepenny Opera, the moritat singer with his street organ introduces and closes the drama with the tale of the deadly Mackie Messer, or Mack the Knife, a character based on the dashing highwayman Macheath in John Gay's The Beggar's Opera. The Brecht-Weill version of the character was far more cruel and sinister, and has been transformed into a modern anti-hero. The opera opens with the moritat singer comparing Macheath (unfavorably) with a shark, and then telling tales of his robberies, murders, rapes, and arson. "Mack the Knife" was introduced to the U.S. hit parade by Louis Armstrong in 1954, but the song is most closely associated with Bobby Darin, who recorded his version at Fulton Studios on West 40th Street, NYC, December 19, 1958 (with Tom Dowd engineering the recording). In 1959 Darin's version reached number one on Billboard's Hot 100 and number six on the Black Singles chart, earned him a Grammy Award for Record of the Year. Dick Clark had advised Darin not to record the song because of the perception that, having come from an opera, it wouldn't appeal to the rock & roll audience. To this day, Clark recounts the story with good humor. Frank Sinatra, who recorded the song with Dean Martin, called Darin's the "definitive" version. On Radio 4's Desert Island Discs, pop mogul Simon Cowell named "Mack the Knife" the best song ever written. In 2003, the Darin version was ranked #251 on Rolling Stone's 500 Greatest Songs of All Time list. Ella Fitzgerald made a famous live recording in 1960 (released on Ella in Berlin: Mack the Knife) in which, after forgetting the lyrics after the first verse, she successfully improvised new lyrics in a performance that earned her a Grammy. Robbie Williams also recorded the song on his 2001 album Swing When You're Winning. Other notable versions of "Mack the Knife" include performances by Jimmie Dale Gilmore, Tony Bennett, Marianne Faithfull, Nick Cave, Emma Pask and James Morrison, Brian Setzer, Westlife, Merrill Osmond, Kenny Garrett, Kevin Spacey, and Michael Bublé. Swiss band The Young Gods radically reworked the song and gave it industrial flavour, while jazz legend Sonny Rollins recorded an instrumental version entitled simply "Moritat" in 1956. A 1959 instrumental performance by Bill Haley & His Comets was the final song the group recorded for Decca Records. Tito Puente has also recorded an instrumental version. Salsa musician Rubén Blades recorded an homage entitled "Pedro Navaja" and spanish singer Miguel Rios made a Big Band version called "Mackie el navaja" (Mack the Knife) in 1998. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mack_the_Knife Mack the Knife (nell'originale in lingua tedesca Die Moritat von Mackie Messer) è il titolo di una canzone con musiche del compositore Kurt Weill su testo Bertolt Brecht. Fu scritta nel 1928. Fu inserita solo l'anno successivo 1929 all'interno della commedia satirica L'opera da tre soldi (Die Dreigroschenoper). Nel 1954 il brano venne tradotto in lingua inglese da Marc Blitzstein e portato al successo da cantanti come Louis Armstrong e Bobby Darin, in una particolare cover in chiave swing. Nel 1960 Ella Fitzgerald, durante un concerto a Berlino, ad un certo punto della canzone dimenticò le parole del testo e fu costretta a improvvisare. La performance venne giudicata talmente riuscita da far guadagnare all'artista un Grammy Award. Il brano di Weill-Brecht è divenuto uno standard jazz/swing fino ad entrare stabilmente nel repertorio di Frank Sinatra, e tanto da essere interpretato da nomi come Tony Bennett, Marianne Faithfull, Sting, Nick Cave, Brian Setzer, Kenny Garrett, Robbie Williams e Michael Bublé. Il brano è stato registrato anche dal sassofonista Sonny Rollins nel 1956 nell' LP Saxophone Colossus, col titolo di Moritat. http://it.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mack_the_Knife (Less)
