Every Saturday we feature a Guest Spot, don't be shy! Tell us about a musical memory you have!
Frankie Valli and The Four Seasons - 'Let's Hang On' (1965)
This weeks Guest Spot is brought to us from Steve "Pogo" Patterson. Even when it's -15 degrees and billowing snow out on the ramp, he's in shorts! What song keeps him warm on those nasty days at the airport...?
Lookin' sharp there fellas |
We are always influenced by our parent's taste in music one way or another, and I am no exception.
Whenever I hear this song, I can only think of being driven to Staines Prep' School when I was about 8, in my dads' metallic green Ford Granada 3.0 Ghia. To be honest, any Frankie Valli song does it, but I always loved the intro to this song and I would always make my dad play it whenever I was in his car. There are some live clips on youtube but the sound quality is not brilliant.

ReplyYep, it's definitely a 'dad' song! For some reason this reminds me of two things - xmas (I don't know why) and Frankie & Benny's restaurants. Time for something Italian!
ReplyI love this song too Steve, although I must admit my version of the memory is dancing to the Barry Manilow version in our guest house in Blackpool - such fun!!
