More of Bobby's Greatest Hits is Bobby Vinton's second compilation of tracks from singles from 1964–1966.[1] Nine of the ten tracks previously charted on the Billboard Hot 100, the lone exception being "Careless" which "bubbled under" (although it reached #82 on the competing Cashbox charts). The hits "Clinging Vine", "What Color (Is a Man)", "Dum-De-Da" and "Tears" (previously a hit for Ken Dodd) make their album debut on this compilation.
