This video clip features Frankie Valli & The Four Seasons singing “Silence Is Golden” at a 1992 recorded concert.

Time for some Friday Flashback Four Seasons trivia: “Silence Is Golden,” a song co-written by Bob Crewe and Bob Gaudio, was featured on the B-side of what Four Seasons big hit back in 1964?

In 1967, what British group’s rendition of “Silence Is Golden” peaked at #11 on the Billboard Hot 100 and remained at #1 on the UK Singles Chart for three weeks?

  1. The A-side big hit was Rag Doll. The group that had the hit with Silence Is Golden was The Tremeloes.
