16 Most Requested Songs is a midline-priced collection that spotlights many of
Bobby Vinton's best-known and most popular performances for Columbia Records, including "Blue Velvet," "Tell Me Why," "Take Good Care of My Baby," "Halfway to Paradise," "Blue on Blue," "L-O-N-E-L-Y," "Just as Much as Ever," "Mr. Lonely," and "Roses are Red (My Love)." Although it's far from a perfect retrospective of his career, it's still a nice sampler of familiar items, and it may satisfy the needs of some casual fans who only want the hits. ~ Stephen Thomas Erlewine
