Mr. Lonely: His Greatest Songs Today is a collection of previously recorded songs by Bobby Vinton for Curb Records. The first five tracks might be misleading to people of the baby-boomer generation, as they are not the singles that Vinton had during the 1960s and the year of 1974 but re-recordings that Vinton made for Curb. For this collection, five songs were taken from Vinton's self-explanatory album and four from his album Timeless. Re-recorded versions of "Mr. Lonely" and "Roses Are Red" make their first album appearance on this collection.
