The Cast Recording Of The Broadway Show Jersey Boys Has Just Been Certified Platinum By The Recording Industry Association Of America For The Original Cast Recording Sales
Broadway's Cast Recording Achieves Platinum Status
Decades after their chart-topping pop successes, Frankie Valli and The Four Seasons are making records again. The cast recording of Jersey Boys, the Broadway musical retelling of Valli and the Seasons' rise to fame, has just been certified platinum by the Recording Industry Association of America. These days it is rare for a Broadway cast album to sell a million copies so soon after its release, so this is quite an achievement for Jersey Boys.
The Grammy-winning recording, which features the talents of John Lloyd Young, J. Robert Spencer, Daniel Reichard, and Christian Hoff, has a slew of tunes made famous by Frankie Valli and The Four Seasons, including such hits as "Oh, What a Night," "Sherry," "Walk Like A Man," "Big Girls Don't Cry," and "Can't Take My Eyes Off Of You".
