Editorial Reviews:

Amazon.com
New Jersey's favorite sons in the days before Bruce Springsteen, Frankie Valli & The Four Seasons were practically the only group from the doo-wop era to continue to thrive during (and after) the British Invasion. Aside from a natural facility for four-part harmony, the group had the added advantage of keyboardist Bob Gaudio (who wrote most of the group's hits) and producer Bob Crewe, who gave the songs a Spector-esque sheen. This disc collects the best Four Seasons stuff from 1962 to 1965, including "Sherry," "Big Girls Don't Cry" and "Dawn (Go Away)." It's an appealing package, but provides an incomplete picture of the group; Four Seasons fans should definitely check out Volume 2, which includes more complex later hits like "Let's Hang On" and "Working My Way Back To You." --Dan Epstein

5 out of 5 stars Frankie Valli Greatest Hits Vol. 1   April 14, 2008
Kmclain
This is a great CD! Loved it so much I had to buy Vol 2. You can listen to
all the songs before you purchase and they are fantastic. I'd highly
recommend this to anyone who loves these songs.



5 out of 5 stars an appealing package--part one   January 2, 2008
Matthew G. Sherwin
The Four Seasons scored a lot of hits when they had Frankie Valli with them; and this CD proves it. The quality of the sound is quite good; and there are numerous hits on this album.

"Sherry" starts the CD strong with a classic early `60s rock and roll flavor that young couples really loved. The melody still sounds good today and The Four Seasons sound perfect! They truly never sounded better. "Big Girls Don't Cry" is a song that sounds playful even though the lyrics are actually about a breakup; The Four Seasons harmonize flawlessly on this number. Moreover, listen for "Walk Like A Man;" this has The Four Seasons celebrating their masculinity and the beat works well as the guys sing in great falsetto!

"Candy Girl" is a cute number with a few interesting chord and tempo changes; and "Dawn (Go Away)" is another hit for this group. They handle the tempo changes like professionals and they never sing off key. I really like "Dawn (Go Away)."

"Ronnie" continues the classic Four Seasons' sound with terrific singing and harmonizing; and I love the drum on "Ronnie!" "Big Man In Town" again has the group celebrating their manhood and the album ends with "Don't Think Twice, It's All Right." They cover this Bob Dylan number so well with a mixture of falsetto and high tenor singing that truly impresses me. Awesome!

The Four Seasons with Frankie Valli were a formidable group with roots in doo-wop that carried them into the 1960s for quite a few major hits; and we are all better off because of their contributions to the world of music. I highly recommend this for fans of The Four Seasons in the days when Frankie Valli worked with them; and people who enjoy music from the early and mid 1960s may want this album as well.

Nurse Jan (USA)
After seeing Jersey Boys, I ordered Frankie Valli and the Four Seasons Greatest Hits, Vol. 1 and 2. Both are superb--their music has stood the test of time. Frankie has an amazing and instantly recognizable voice and the harmony is fabulous. Highly recommended.


5 out of 5 stars The Valli Boys   May 16, 2007
Earle Williams
A collection of 15 of the top hits by Frankie Valli and the Four Seasons, about the only American group to success during the British invasion of the mid-sixties, this CD is a wonderful trip into the past. Most of their Top 40 from 1962-1964 are here, except, alas, "Rag Doll." If you like the Four Seasons, you will love this CD.
