No, just on UK 45.

 

or spanish, french, german, whatever 45. Probably everywhere around the world except US of A.

Actually, it's the only Frankie Valli 45 I like, and I really love it.

 

Beggin' doesn't do much for me, I'm afraid.  The market must have dropped to the floor on Beggin'.  I sold two copies a year or 2 ago for almost $100 each, but the last copy I sold only brought $10.

Cheers.

:hatsoff2: HI ALL  In 1976 I was a member of the lighting crew working on the Kool & the Gang, F.B.I UK tour, It was on that tour I learnt many interesting facts about the band, and who they knew, like Ed Kiser and they loved the music that I had on tape including "burning sensation" it was on a gig to the free trade hall Manchester that the stage roadie, a guy called Donald ?, he was the voice on the open sesames!. about th e MOTOWN AUDITION DISCS, 12" PLATTER WITH 4 to 6 instrumental trax, that were given to group & solo artist to preform at auditions, he told me that MOTOWN kept a file with every instrumental of every song, I have no reason to doubt his word or his knowledge, this would mean that the "NIGHT" EXISISTS SOMEWHERE :g: DAVE K

Really?  They made some of the greatest pop music of the 60's, I love more or less everything of theirs I've ever heard, from Sherry, Big Girls Don't Cry and Rag Doll to I'm Gonna Change

:hatsoff2: HI ALL....I LIKE IT I LIKE IT, WELL DONE PETE.   All the 4 Seasons stuff & many of the SURF music especially the Beach Boys became hits because of the SOUL CLUBS of the day the TWISTED WHEEL CLUB,& the SOHO CLUBS including the Pink Flamingo & the TILES CLUB played this sort of music mixed in with R&B SOUL & UK group R&B STYLE,

I remember my brother coming home from the TILES after seeing JIMI HENDRIX, also he loved 8 96.8 KEITH, which was a huge MOD RECORD.  What was that 4 Seasons garage type instrumental that got played at BLETSOE, it was on a red label??? :rofl: DAVE K

:hatsoff2: HI ALL ...YES Wendall Parker it is many thanks, yes it is a bad dub agreed but it's got atmosphere? I have actually got a copy that I forgot all about, cheap as chips but as I say I like it, MANY THANKS DAVE K

Yeah, Pete, Frankie Valli and the Four Seasons had a lot of hits, but it just doesn't do much for me.  To each their own..
