JERSEY BOY - FRANKI VALLI

Not many rock and roll performers have a rebirth in their



eighties. Franki Valli of the Four Seasons fame does. The Jersey Boys emergence has catapulted Frankie into some real dollars, big time. Reports reveal he gets over $500,000 a month. That will allow Frank to buy his chalet in France!




Frankie and crew have been at it for decades. I was a teenager in love in 1961 to the tune of "Sherry" and "Big Girls Don Cry." Later he told us to "Walk Like A Man." So many hits .. so many memories.




I saw Frankie perform twice: The South Shore Music Circus in 1974 and in Hartford around 1993. Valli's falsetto voice seems unique in the framework of pop music.




You can tune in The Four Seasons on YouTube for the asking. I think they may have a PBS appearance coming up?




Now, hold onto your hat! How old do you thing Frankie Valli really is? 82 years young and going strong.


Frankie is truly amazing!
