Overview

After the success with "There Must Be a Way", his only song to reach the Billboard Hot 100 singles chart, peaking at No. 93, and "All the Time", which reached No. 19 on the Easy Listening chart, [1] he recorded the album, There Must Be a Way. It peaked at No. 191 on the Billboard Top LPs chart during a three-week stay on the chart. [2]

The album features two Roselli songs, and hits from years before, like the Dean Martin hit song, "In the Chapel in the Moonlight" and a more orchestral version of Johnnie Ray's hit "Walkin' My Baby Back Home". "Oh! What It Seemed to Be" was released as a single and reached No. 35 on the Easy Listening chart in 1968. [3] The single stayed on the chart for three weeks. [4]

Critical reception

Billboard wrote "Featuring his hit single, "There Must Be a Way", Roselli's open, full tones score throughout this highly commercial LP of standards and todays popular tunes. 'There Goes My Everything' and 'Get Out of My Heart' have the right country feeling." [5]
