Roses Are Red is Bobby Vinton's third studio album, released in 1962. After Vinton's hit "Roses Are Red" reached No. 1, the eponymous album was released and made its way up to No. 5 on the Billboard 200. Shortly after the success of the song and album, Epic renewed Vinton's contract but changed his artist title from a bandleader to a solo artist. "Roses Are Red" is the first track on the album. Cover versions include "Sentimental Me", Cole Porter's "True Love", Roy Orbison's hit "Crying", "If I Give My Heart to You" and five country songs. Vinton's 1964 No. 1 hit "Mr. Lonely" was originally only an album track here; its release as a single was two years later when it appeared on Bobby Vinton's Greatest Hits.
