OFFICIAL FRANKIE VALLI & THE FOUR SEASONS FANS FACEBOOK PAGE

We have recently been informed that all Yahoo Groups will be closing down, including ValliSeasons and FrankieValliAndTheFourSeasons, and so Dean Egnator has set up a brand new Official ‘Frankie Valli & The Four Seasons Fans’ Facebook page to replace these two groups so that fans can keep in touch and be kept up to date.

Snapper Records Box Set

Ken Charmer and I are still working closely with Ian Crockett at Snapper Records in London on the massive 42 disk box set to include some of the Motown unreleased material which has been approved by Bob Gaudio. We have incurred some delays due to the Coronavirus as Motown Universal in the USA is closed until January and the box set is now scheduled for release in August 2021 which will tie in nicely with the UK tour which is scheduled for July next year – we are still keeping our fingers crossed that the tour will go ahead which we are told is still 50/50 at the moment. All contracts are in place and the transfers from the Four Seasons analogue tapes and collector sources are with the engineer. The Partnerships recent deal with Primary Wave re publishing doesn't impact the Box Set release process and shortly we expect re-mastering to start and the quality checking of final versions for the previously published draft CD listings will begin. We continue to review versions on the analogue tapes to ensure accuracy in terms of the original albums and singles mixes particularly those from the 1960s. An enquiry re the Sigma Sound tapes donated to Drexel University is being pursued re potentially unreleased tracks left on the Studio tapes in 1979 and we will advise further re any opportunity in due course. We also have the option of including new stereo re-mix masters of the Bachelors III Live concert [from 1974] which the engineer will review.
