Cousin Joe
I call you cousin because growing up in Peterstown and sharing the same Uncle Charlie and Aunt Tessie, that makes us automatic cousins. My mom Rose and I hope you are doing well!!! We’ve gone to see Jersey Boys with different members of the family on 3 separate occasions.
Just want you to know that before the show came to NY and when it was still on the west coast, I wrote to the director and reminded him that you were a “significant ” member of the group and to please give you the recognition that you earned and deserved !
Class Act Cousin and stay well !!

Joey – Henry Marcantonio and I were high school buddies at St Mary’s and ‘distant’ relatives(his cousin Pat married my cousin Bob). Henry introduced me to you and we partied at your place across from Spirito’s in 70/71?. My first celebrity encounter! Congratulations on all your contributions to the Four Seasons. Going to see JB in Raleigh, NC this Sunday 12 Jul 09. I’m sure the music will bring back great memories of my times in Peterstown/Berg/Bayway.

Uncle Joe, How exciting to see this website and know that others get to share in our joy. Our joy of knowing your history! You have lived in the background for a while now with true humility. Never have you asked for your share of the pot. I hope some day they will welcome you into the Hall of Fame and all of your family friends and devoted fans will be there to celebrate. Love you, Debbie

Saw JB last week. What a GREAT show!! Fortunate to have been around from their beginning, the Four Seasons were/are a true American icon. So many fantastic songs and the arrangements were spectacular. The sound of the original records is like listening to today’s technology; clean, full, just great. Does anybody know who the drummer(s) on those records were? That guy was fantastic! I remember when Joe Long became a member in the mid 60s, but never knew why Nick Massi left the band until seeing the show. Whatever…..Joe Long deserved to have been included in the groups induction into the R&R HOF. He was there long enough and played on many of their big hits. The Stones included Mick Taylor (very deservedly so) when he replaced founding member Brian Jones when they were inducted. Joe Long deserved the same treatment from the Four Seasons. ‘Nuf said!
