As soon as Mali played that Thai song I started remembering the Four Seasons and Frankie Valli and went through 7 variations of it
I didn’t know the song so I used Sound Hound to find out who produced it. But there were something like 7 productions I could choose from. I must have spent two hours looking for the one that came closest to capturing the Four Seasons sound.
And then, last night Mali did it again. At the Secret Garden where a woman I had never met joined up with us. And this woman exceeded all expectations I had of her. Putting up a great show while playing up to my Nikon.
I couldn’t stop remembering the Four Seasons.
And why shouldn’t I? Frankie Vali and the Four Seasons had made “Sherry” the number one song in the U.s. And that was way back in 1962 when I was just 15 years old. How could I ever forget the Four Seasons vibe. Because back then I heard at least one female voice joining an all male chorus.
It must have been two or three weeks ago that I really started remembering the four seasons. At Nymphoz Ray started playing several selections from “Grease”.
I really had no clue just how instrumental Franki Valli has been to music. Until recently. He had pioneered a unique sound with his high falsetto voice. Which had made him and the Four Seasons hugely popular in the 1960’s. But I had never figured he had done the opening song to Grease, which I thought was spectacular the first time I had heard it. But being in a 2025 world tour at 91 years old? This man is beyond the comprehension of we mere mortals.
I can’t be sure, but I really think the woman singing the song Uey played had been inspired by Frankie Valli
Most dedicated musicians pay a lot of attention to great music. And I don’t care where in the world they come from.
But I don’t think this is the case with Body Slam. Who have their own unique style I”ve never heard anywhere else.
