5 out of 5 stars Oh, what a CD   August 6, 2008
  1 out of 2 found this review helpful

This is a real score for both fans of Franki Valli and for Rhino records. This best of gathers songs from all phases of the band's career and Valli's solo albums, from various labels and multiple decades. From those first memorable singles "Sherry" and "Big Girls Don't Cry" on Vee-Jay (a label that was an early US host of The Beatles) to Valli scoring a number one with the Grease Soundtrack theme song, you can follow pop styles and trends through Valli's falsetto.

While those coming to this CD via the success of the Jersey Boys Broadway show will be taken aback by the primitive sound of the early records, the production was still very pristine for the times. The horse-clops on "Walk Like a Man" or the chimes on "Dawn (Go Away)" show savvy, and the 70's comeback of "Who Loves You" or "Swearin' To God" hail the omnipotence of the disco era. Add some great liner notes, and you have the best Four Seasons comp available. Take a little stroll down the Jersey Boardwalk with Sherry, Candy, Ronnie, Dawn and Marrianne...and Franki Valli.

4 out of 5 stars Love Frankie Valli   August 3, 2008
Recently had the pleasure of seeing "Jersey Boys" on Broadway and left the theater remembering all of the songs of The Four Seasons which brought back so many memories of yesteryear and my coming of age. This CD has most of the hits. One of my favorites, "Silence is Golden" is not on here and very difficult to find but I enjoyed the songs which are featured.


5 out of 5 stars Great tunes!   July 21, 2008
I bought this CD to get the complete Four Seasons hit collection, and this is it!! We saw Jersey Boys recently, and it was great, but no comparison to the real deal...you won't be disappointed!


5 out of 5 stars Wonderful!   June 23, 2008
If you're a fan of Valli & the Seasons, you'll enjoy the reverie this CD provides. They're always the best!
