  • 1965-66.....#3 U.S. Billboard Hot 100, #1 U.S. Cash Box Top 100, #4 UK Singles Chart, #3 Canada, #8 New Zealand
    Original Ed Sullivan Show live performance video edited and AI remastered with stereo sound.
    "Let's Hang On!" is a song composed by Bob Crewe, Sandy Linzer, and Denny Randell that was popularized by The Four Seasons in 1965. The single reached the No. 3 position in the Billboard Hot 100 singles chart, the group's highest placement since "Rag Doll" hit the top spot in July 1964.
    This was the last Four Seasons hit to feature bass singer/bassist Nick Massi. The same month "Let's Hang On!" was released, Massi left the group and was temporarily replaced by the band's arranger Charles Calello before Joe Long came in as Massi's full-time replacement.
    The popularity of "Let's Hang On!" has been attributed to the inclusion of several devices into the recording: a two-line introduction (sung by lead singer Frankie Valli), the use of two fuzz guitars (one guitarist playing low notes, another playing high notes on a fuzz bass), a chorus loaded with hooks and sung in falsetto, and backing vocals giving counterpoint with Valli's lead vocal. It re-established the group's presence in the Top Ten (of the Hot 100) as The Four Seasons were in a flurry of activity, recording albums both as The Four Seasons and as supporting musicians for Valli's rekindled "solo" career. In the UK, the song was a No. 4 hit for the group.
    Billboard described the song as having a "hard-driving dance rhythm." Cash Box described it as a "hard-rockin’ fast-moving rhythmic ode about a lucky fella who is mighty pleased that he’s fortunate enough to have met the girl of his dreams."
    The single's B-side, "On Broadway Tonight", was the theme of a CBS-TV variety series (1964-1965) hosted by Rudy Vallee.

    Always a pleasure to see any version of this song performed. Would like to know where the mics are for the backup singers though.

    These groups had lefthanded bass players: Beatles, Herman's Hermits, Four Seasons. Am I forgetting any others?

      Great info and didn’t know that about Herman’s Hermits. I thought it was only the Beatles and The Four Seasons. Joe Long has shared a story in meeting Paul McCartney and Paul telling him, Joe you are the second greatest left hand bass player. Of course Paul being the first.
