In the 1970s he had a few more hits such as "My Melody of Love" which was partially sung in Polish and the cover of Brian Hyland's "Sealed With A Kiss".
In the course of his career, Vinton has sold over 75 million records, and is still performing, on tour and at the Bobby Vinton Blue Velvet Theatre in Branson, Missouri.
