Frankie Valli Way and Snapper Box Set Release

Frankie and Jackie at the dedication of Frankie Valli Way- Stephen Crane Village Newark NJ. Stephen Crane Village was a low income housing project in Newark where Frankie lived from the age of 6 until his early 30s but he also worked there as a janitor for a time , one of several jobs he took to support himself and his family.

Last week, the city of Newark, NJ and the NJ Hall of Fame unveiled the brand new street “Frankie Valli Way” – a dedication to the legacy  of the legend himself, Frankie Valli.  “It’s something to remember forever it’s just one of the greatest moments of my life, I can’t believe they named a street after me,” Valli said. “It’s been a wonderful day really, and there is so much sentiment in Stephen Crane Village for me, right up until I became successful I lived here…my mother lived here and died here.”

The long awaited Snapper Box set is all set to be delivered on 2 June - you can order your copy here:

Working Our Way Back To You Box Set

This Box Set was delayed due to production difficulties but all the boxes have now been made up ready for dispatch.   Ian Crockett at Snapper Records has asked me to pass on his profuse apologies for the delay in the “Working Our Way Back To You” box set.   He said “Although myself and the team would have liked the box set out sooner we were keen to check everything to ensure it was absolutely right.  This set includes 44 CD’s, 3 books and also a vinyl copy of Genuine Imitation Life Gazette and at £350 this is worth every penny and well worth waiting for, I am confident you will not be disappointed”. 

USA fans if they prefer can order the box set via Amazon:
