 Frankie Valli - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Jersey Boys Blog is the Broadway musical story of Frankie Valli and The Four Seasons.
Valli is best remembered for his falsetto vocals, once prompting comedian Jackie Mason, referring to Walk Like A Man, to exclaim, "Sing like a man, Frankie!" Another singer who has been compared with Valli is Lou Christie.
Valli has been the lead singer from then until the present time, occasionally releasing singles under his own name, notably the theme song from the film version of Grease, written by Barry Gibb, which was a #1 hit.

 Biography
But it wasn't just records and the radio that Frankie listened to.
It was a track Frankie recorded when the group was at Motown but there was no belief or interest from the label in issuing it.
It was claimed that Frankie was born in 1937 which would have made him 25 in 1962 when the Seasons hit the big time with "Sherry", and so one might think that shaving 3 years off his age was a pointless exercise anyway.
