Drive-In Movie Time: Bobby Vinton Sings Great Motion Picture Themes is Bobby Vinton's twelfth studio album, released by Epic Records in August 1965.[2] Consisting entirely of songs from films, it was recorded and released to capitalize on Vinton's latest single at the time, "Theme from 'Harlow' (Lonely Girl)". All of the songs are from films that were released during the 1950s and 1960s.[3]
Critical reception
[edit]Billboard magazine believed that "Although the material has been recorded by many vocalists, Vinton adds his own unique delivery bringing freshness to each selection," adding: "'Theme From a Summer Place' and 'Moon River' fit the successful Vinton style perfectly."[1]
