30 Big Hits of the 60's, Volume 2 is the fourteenth studio album by American singer Bobby Vee, and was released in April 1966 by Liberty Records.
Vee again covers hits from the 1960s with this album, including "(The Man Who Shot) Liberty Valance", "For Your Love", "Houston", "You're Sixteen", and "Call Me Irresponsible". Like 1964's Vol. 1, these are snippets of past hits from the era, with each song a medley combining two songs into one.
Although Volume 1 made it to the Cashbox albums chart in 1964, where it peaked at No. 95, Volume 2 failed to reach the charts.
Reception At the time of the album's release, Billboard praised Bobby Vee for "presenting and he does it in golden voice."
St. Petersburg Times raves "you'll enjoy the way he sings number.
Robert Reynolds called it a "Nice Album" and praised that "It showcases [Vee's] ability to sing almost any style of song."
The Post-Crescent mentions that Vee "takes on an enormous task and both singer and songs come through unscathed"
