Welch followed up "French Kiss" with 1979's "Three Hearts", an album that replicated the rock/disco fusion of "French Kiss". It peaked at #20 (earning a RIAA gold certification) and spawned the hit "Precious Love" (#19), while the follow-up single "Church" (#73) also charted. From 1980 to 1981, he hosted "Hollywood Heartbeat", an early music video program. His subsequent solo albums into the early 1980s ("The Other One," "Man Overboard," "Bob Welch," and "Eye Contact") were not successful and his career declined.
