I don’t want to get to corny here, but I can’t believe I am hearing for the first time in my entire 57 years, I am finally able to hear what the 4 Seasons sounded like live in the 60’s. I can’t thank you enough because you have no idea what this means to me, to finally hear this great American Band for the first time live in their early hit making years. I just subscribed to your channel and hoping there is more to come and if not, this alone is much appreciated. Thank you

Thank you so much for this posting. One fact about Frankie Valli, he did not have an ego being the lead singer. The band came first and the more you know about the Four Seasons, this becomes more clear. He is not just not a great singer but also a humble caring man that always put the band first. Even though Tommy Devito was robbing the band blind, Frankie still never forgot how Tommy took him off the street when they first started. The world needs more people like Frankie Valli who never forgot where he came from. Frankie, you keep going, you are great. Thanks for all you did.

@@anthonycolatrella2438 Thanks for clarifying this. I was always a Four Seasons fan, from the very beginning. In the early 70s I had a roommate who couldn't stand them, with his exception of the drumming, which he thought was spectacular. I would agree with that assessment on the drummer, but the whole group was spectacular in my opinion. I think some of the best drumming was done on their poorly charted 45 Betrayed / Toy Soldier. I have that single with the (cheap Philips paper) picture sleeve, which was fitting I guess for the styrene 45s.

@@michaelnyny I would have kicked your roommate out!!! the Seasons were spectacular without a doubt! Gaudio was a frustrated drummer I have heard him say and always tried to include great drum parts and the execution of the parts was consistently superb---mostly thanks to Buddy Saltzman; as long as Charlie Calello did the arranging, Saltzman was his first choice. He most likely did the drumming on those 2 songs you mentioned---I refer you to our SEASONS ON SATURDAY show on KZitem where we discuss the career and recordings of the 4Seasons---we did do an interview of Charlie Calello recently which was terrific! Lee Shapiro, their keyboardist from 1973-78 is one of our group--on one program we discussed the "Who Loves You" album---if you are a 4Season fan I am sure you will find the shows informative and entertaining--we have done 11 so far
