Frankie Valli live at Hard Rock, Atlantic City 2024- Full Show

[@ColinParker-w3u]

As someone who has spent his life in the music business, nearly 60 years now. I can say with certainty as a huge 4 Seasons fan, that Frankie is definitely using backing tracks & is lip syncing. However, as a show for his legions of fans just having him up there on stage is enough. And he deserves the utmost respect for what he has achieved in the past. I love the guy & I hope he's around for more years yet. However don't be misled, this is a 'performance' NOT a live display of Frankie's prowess, & I say that with all the love in the world for his many achievements.

[@gnlout7403]

He's obviously not singing. The fact some seem to think he is is stunning to me

[@PeterCamberwick]

One day he's gonna fall down or drop the mic or something and that voice is gonna just keep right on going. Then people will say, "You don't understand. even when his mouth is nowhere near the mic, you can hear him just the same. That's how powerful his voice is.". LOL

[@Clodhopping]

Sorry fans, he's miming to a vocal track. The mic has a switch to allow him to speak between songs or even between lines. It's a digitally enhanced pre-recorded vocal that he's been using for years. Too much evidence online of him fluffing lines or letting his real voice appear by accident - it sounds horrific. The band and the 4 backing singers are performing live - kept in sync with a click track. At least only he's promised it's his last tour.

[@sek795]

And, how do you know this cynical person? 😡

[@deadrockstar49]

@@sek795 The differences in timbre between speaking and singing voice is one giveaway. The ennunciation of the prerecorded vocal tracks is crisp and clear as you would expect studio recorded track to be, while his speaking voice is thin and sounds old and tired, lacking energy and is obviously the voice of a man his age. The distance he holds the mic away from his mouth as he "sings" is inconsistent with the sound being produced as well - you can't get that "punchy. in-your-face" kind of vocal sound when that kind of mic is held 2 feet away from the mouth. SOURCE: I'm a touring theatre professional for the past 40 years and work with pre-recorded backing tracks FREQUENTLY with many different artists and shows. It's simply the way things are done these days. It's not a knock on anyone, it's just the way it is.

[@asr53]

first time I saw the 4 Seasons was 1971 and then many times over the years (plus the years he toured as a solo artist). Their catalogue of great songs ranks up there with the best musical acts ever. Watching KZbin concert clips of McCartney (82), Mike Love (83)/Beach Boys, Rod Stewart (79) and countless other older artists show how age changes vocal abilities. For someone to wonder how Frankie at 90 sounds like he's 60 isn't a troll, but a legitimate question. We all know many artists in concert that use backing tracks, enhanced vocals, computer aides and even some lip syncing. That's what it is these days. That being said, thank you Frankie for so many years of music. Rest in peace former 4 Seasons Tommy DeVito (died 2020), Joe Long (2021), Nick Massi (2000), Don Ciccone (2016) and producer/writer of many of their great tunes Bob Crewe (2014).

Ive seen Frankie 4 times in my life. In 1974 I was a 15 yr old kid who went to hear that great falsetto but he never sang it. I was so disapointed, found out later that he was practically deaf. Thankfully I grew up, and saw him again in 1987 knowing the falsetto was gone ,but i enjoyed the show and wasnt dissapointed. saw him again in 1995 and i thought it was his best show id seen, in 2004 by some quirk of fate and some smooth talking from my new wife I got a VIP ticket to a sold out show in Reno, show was the best i had seen yet, as he belted a few falsetto notes,but the highlight was getting a photo and a brief conversation with him after the show. I just saw this video and he did as great a job as anyone could have a falsetto at 90 years old. I wish I could see him once more after this video before he finally retires or god retires him. Honestly im amazed he is better now then he was in 1974, i guess like a fine wine he just gets better with age. God bless Frankie Valli

I have mixed feelings about what people say about him not singing. He talks just like he sings, and as a musician myself, I sometimes think he is, other times I wonder, but at ninety, he can still walk up and down the stage and do it. Hey, Tony Bennett still has his voice, but I believe he is suffering from dementia now, I know others who still have their voice. Some lose a lot as they get older, but many are fortunate to keep their voice. Excuse my language, but who the fuck cares, I know with my severe degenerative disc disease and without pain meds, at sixty, I can't walk up and down a stage and travel like Frankie does, so God bless him and stop knocking him about if he is singing or not. I think he is, and he sang at his wedding to his younger bride. They also put a new album out just a couple of years ago, so what do the people who constantly bring up if he is singing or not think, he is lip syncing on a new album? Come on, listen, that's him, I don't care what anyone says. I wish at some point during one of his shows he would stop the band and say, for those who wonder, and just hit a high note or sing a line or two of something, I sure would if I were famous and constantly had the world and media breaking my stones.

[@stephenhanft1226]

Thank you so very much for your post and being the voice of reason here. Much appreciated. I don't believe that he lip-syncs. I believe he is singing at his shows.

He makes thousands of people happy who attend his shows and that should be all that matters.

The overwhelming majority of the people who attend his concerts are his real fans, have a wonderful time, don't believe he lip-sync's and would never come to a concert video's comments section to attack and disrespect him. Those people are the extreme minority. Please remember that. I always delete their comments who have the audacity to reply on my thread. The others I simply ignore and don't take them seriously. They're not real Frankie Valli fans. Also. especially, pay no attention to Frenite. He peddles his lip-sync lies in replies to everyone. I don't believe him and neither should you.

[@Frenite]

@@stephenhanft1226 I’ve been a fan of Frankie Valli my whole life and even had the chance to meet him five years ago. He is absolutely a music legend, but the truth is that he has been lip syncing for 25 years. I know it’s something you don’t want to hear or believe, but it’s the truth. I used to be in denial and try to find ways to justify the fact that he’s somehow singing live. After long and careful examination, I came to the conclusion that he does lip sync. If you look at his performances over the last 25 years, every note sounds identical. That was not the case prior to 1998. There’s even more recent videos of his lips barely moving and being off with his vocals. Additionally, I tried to ask his former backing group, “The Modern Gentlemen”, if he lip synced, and they said they couldn’t talk about it. If he sang completely live, it would be easy to deny that accusation, right? If you have some evidence that shows otherwise, I’d love to see it. I simply don’t understand how you can explain away that every performance over the last 25 years sounds identical. I’m not attacking or disrespecting him, rather I’m simply stating a fact. I’ve talked to many Frankie Valli aficionados and they also know this sad truth. You don’t have to delete and censor everyone who challenges your view. I suggest you try to keep an open mind and look at the evidence yourself.

You are correct. Frankie is not lip-syncing. Please ignore all of Frenite's comments. He is the king of the negative lip-syncing trolls and his channel's comments section is toxic.

I’m a fan of Frankie and respect his talent. But this is ridiculous. Does anyone in the audience actually think he’s singing live? Whoever the promoter is of this farce should be ashamed him (or her) self. He can barely walk, let alone sing. Is he having financial problems that would necessitate doing these shows?
