By this time, their popularity had passed their initial peak in the US, but they remained a very popular band in the UK, and it is gratifying to see them perform here!!! This was a great year for them here, and for Top of the Pops!!! I wish we had this show here in the States!!!
Have just commented I’m lucky enough to see him again on July 2nd at the Royal Albert Hall over here in the UK and he’s 86! I can’t wait He and the original Four Seasons were my favourites in the 60s, particularly Frankie and Gerry Polci the drummer!👏👏👏😘🇬🇧
Hello dear!! I have seen your wonderful comment on my public channel, am so happy and impressed with your support on my career all this years Where are you from?
Well you're right, but they had a "second career" in the mid-70's that was almost as big as their 60's run with "December 1963", "Who Loves You", and Frankie had "My Eyes Adored You", "Grease", "Our Day Will Come", and "Swearin' To God", all of which charted no less than number 11.
5-3-22 Today.Happy 88th Birthday Frankie! Miss seeing you.Still have my 2020 and 2021 ticket.See you in July for my 12th time seeing you in concert.Can not wait ! You always put on the best show and your voice is still the same! My 1st concert was seeing you in 1975 and my eyes still adore you! Love You till forever!
I saw the Seasons live twice between 1966 and 1971. I have never seen a better show by a better band. I still have my autographed program. One of the best of all time bands.
I am so lucky to be able to see Frankie again on July 2nd at the Royal Albert Hall, no one can say he hasn’t stood the test of time! I think he’s 86, there’s not many out there who could be still performing at that age! I can’t wait to see him live again 👏👏👏👏👏👏😘😘😘😘😘🇬🇧
@DavidGreg 1184 I’m good thanks, we are on holiday in Egypt at the moment and still looking forward to seeing him again. Hope you are o.k. Best wishes🇬🇧
@DavidGreg 1184 Missed the message just before, you must notice the difference in weather between Norway and Miami 😂 we have been to Norway, it’s a beautiful country.
@DavidGreg 1184 Apologies for not replying earlier David, as I said we’re on holiday in Egypt and WiFi is very intermittent plus we have been busy on a couple of trips. I don’t mind continuing our chat but it would have to be on this forum as I don’t do any other type of social media.
Hello everyone one it’s his 90th Birthday today May 3,2024 ‘Wishing you a Blessed Healthy Happy Birthday Ever! I hope and pray you have more birthdays to come ! Stay well as always 🙏❤️
These jersey boys were the US biggest band, along with the beach boys in 62 and 1963 and would have exploded in popularity in 1964. But something took over music in early 1964 that relegated all American music to the back burner for the rest of the decade. Beatlemania and the British invasion. The world would never be the same again. So glad I lived thru it all.
Love this! Was fortunate enough to see the original 4 seasons 30 years ago!! Also, Frankie with the current lineup! Always an amazing musical experience.
Frankie Valli...lo escucho desde los años 60' y lejos de aburrirme cada vez siento mas bonita el color tan transparente de su voz melodiosa...bendiciones que aún vive ..gracias a Dios de poder siendo adulta seguir disfrutando de él y su música...gracias por compartirlo...desde Cuba ...muchas gracias 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉

Franky I love you baby. I'm a 42 year old rock and metal player. But your my favorite singer. Your the stud of all studs. I wish I could meet you. I'm a broke outa work loser. But I wanna see you live more than anything in life. That and to sing like you. I'd give anything to learn how to sing like the greatest singer of all. Time I've never left illinois. I'm from a very poor white family. 2 Hours from Chicago. It's dead no work. I'm a recovered opiate addict I did 2 years in prison for some bull crap. They called it burglary but nothing was broken into or stolen. There were lots of old Italian guys where I did my time. I took a job helping them to be around guys like my dearest Grandpa and his friends all living in summer place away from the one huge massive city that is northern illinois. A place on the woods and river all these fine working older mostly folks. Bbq, beer, brotts, guns, horseshoes. darts. And playing instruments and singing. Lots of older buildings and music, from the 50s, 60s, And much more. The 4 seasons were one of the most loved bands. My Grandparents made me try to sing your stuff. My falsetto is nothing great. Lol. Thank god I can play guitar. bass. and keys. Your music is the soundtrack of my childhood and life. Your voice is the most amazing thing. I really do pray, and ask to hear you sing up close in person I know you are really up there in the years. Any of us could die today/tomorrow. My health isnt the best at 42 Iook great. Clean non smoker. But with mystery gut pain hard to live with most often. few days a week and some bleed they cant find. Makes me dangerously Anemic sometimes. If I get a little mono. Etc. Also things like bein exposed to carbon monoxide, or other anything that affects my red blood cells. I'm not going to b e in the golden years like my musical super man here. My God his voice is real magic, and his lyrics are great. Walk like a man kills me.
Wow, thanks for posting! Great, clear video & fantastic to hear them when they were transitioning from the original group to the mid '70s comeback line-up. Though Joe Long didn't have much of a bass voice, huh?
They would repeat this medley when Frankie Valli and the Four Seasons "got back together" in '81. This was when the original plans of having the "retooled" Four Seasons, minus Frankie Valli, start acting as a separate group (with Frankie doing solo works, yet still maintaining co-ownership of the group with Bob Gaudio) didn't work out after the "Helicon" album flopped.
Music is crap too me today I pull out my old records and listen too good music that have meaning in the songs they sing by in my days and you actually can sing along and enjoy .❤️👍
Hard to believe this was TOTP. Never known anyone no matter how famous get to do a medley of past hits on there, you had to have a song, climbing the charts and that's all you got to perform, Beatles, Stones, Queen didn't matter absolutely amazing. Can't say I rated the backing vocals that highly but at least Frankie could still hit the notes back then.
It looks like Gaudio doubled the bass lines with his left hand, there is so little live video from when he played in the band, but this seems to show it more clearly than black and white TV recordings. Can anybody confirm if he indeed doubled the bass and why?
Joe Long-perfect example of how to perform behind a great singer, just love his smiles, expressions, into it , that grabs people musicians!!!! Lost a great bassist/person Being fired and not making a scene, just left. That’s sad to me. Professional
Was always curious when Bob stopped performing. Seems like this was his last stand on stage. Joe Long would stay till 75 at least through some Mike Douglas appearances.
Who's the guitar player who replaced Tommy Devito? Don't recognize him. The beginning of Frankie Vallie and a bunch of Seasons replacements, after Gaudio and Long left too.
Great line up with Bob Gaudio, Joe Long and Bob Grim backing Frankie up and sounding amazing!!

Damn really? The whole country hadn't a clue 😐😐😐😐
Great Music will never die period..
Bob Gaudio and Joe Long still performing with the Four Seasons in 1971 .
Love his music since. I was a teenager. I am 71 and still love it
Always fascinating to watch and hear Joe Long's bass playing. A great talent for sure! 😁
He always seems to be having a blast too.

Absolute talent here from one ☝️ of this country’s greatest bands, Frankie Valli and the Four Seasons.

Amazing voice!!!! Idk what but I’m speechless!

great group in great songs
This is fabulous! Something to look forward to other than taxes!

Una de las mejores voces de todos los tiempos

The best of the best in my growing up world--we copied them all we could !!!!!
I CAN'T WAİT

Great 😃👍😃
That's the best music and the whole world
I was fortunate enough to have seen them live in Miami in 1972-they were amazing in the small venue the hotel provided..
😱😱😱😱 fantástic 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
Hermosa su voz,inolvidable, 💘 te llevó bajó mí piel

This seems like a rare TOTP live performance.

Thank you so much for your love and support on my career all this year's and for taking your time to express it.
where are you watching from?
👏👏👏👏👏👏🇧🇷🤗
Big big big.
Who were the members?
Bob Gaudio on the stage?
Joe Long on bass next to Frankie
No Tommy DeVito.
Bob Grim on guitar. Bob Gaudio on keys. Joe Long on bass.
Devito I think left in1971
2:32 Bob Gaudio doesn't contact his keyboard. Why?
Not live
Watch the movie the Jersey boys that Clint Eastwood director awesome movie it's says it all of their life and Frankie up and downs in his life too.👍
Que "Bigodinho" miserável..rsrs..!
Frankie's voice never sounded better than at this point. Must be the mustache.
2024 ❤
Every clip I watch there´s someone new in the band; Next time name it the "Forty Seasons"
It looks like Gaudio doubled the bass lines with his left hand, there is so little live video from when he played in the band, but this seems to show it more clearly than black and white TV recordings. Can anybody confirm if he indeed doubled the bass and why?
Likely he wrote all the songs in this manner. Seems second nature to him. The bass players played his lines. He is a brilliant composer
@@ronaldzirin345 Yeah that's an interesting theory. Maybe so. It sounds cool to play that way in a band if you do it well.
@@ronaldzirin345 They always had great bass players. Joe Long was poetry in motion!
Joe Long-perfect example of how to perform behind a great singer, just love his smiles, expressions, into it , that grabs people musicians!!!!
Lost a great bassist/person
Being fired and not making a scene, just left.
That’s sad to me.
Professional
By this time Frankie hated singing falsetto. He drifted away from those kind of songs to songs where he could sing in his regular voice.
🎵
Was always curious when Bob stopped performing. Seems like this was his last stand on stage. Joe Long would stay till 75 at least through some Mike Douglas appearances.
👍
Which is the last song of the medley?
"Bye Bye Baby (Baby Goodbye)"
🇭🇺🇭🇺🇭🇺
Man this Greta Van Fleet kid is really versatile
Who's the guitar player who replaced Tommy Devito? Don't recognize him. The beginning of Frankie Vallie and a bunch of Seasons replacements, after Gaudio and Long left too.
This is Bob Grimm in the video. It took me ages to figure it out.
Never any Republican candidate had the support of boricuas like President Trump, a unique human being and a true patriot. God bless him.
infinite credulity☝🏼
After Godfather ... Frankie...
Same song, different style of music.
Did he really rock that hair.c
Frankie seemed to have toned it down quite a bit by the 1970’s. But performance is still great nonetheless. 👍
Do they think they’re fooling anyone with the lip syncing really?!?
here or now in 2024?
