Frankie Valli

Just posted a 12" Promo vinyl of "Swearin' To God" (10:32 Version) on Ebay for serious collectors. Posting will end this Saturday, January 21'st, 2012.

How much could I expect to pay for this. I saw it years ago on eBay once, but it was offered at $200...I thought that was too high but I have found myself wishing over and over I had bought it. Does anyone know who had offered it so I might contact them and see if it is still available?

correct me if i'm wrong. isn't the dj promo copy of swearin' to god 16:00 mins. long ? why wasn't this released to the public ? will it ever be released on CD ? it was a big hit in 1975. the lp version was 10:09, a 12" single was 10:15, etc. i've been searching for this difficult hard to find item for many years. i hope they'll release this on CD in several versions just like other artists.****

Julian, the answer to your problem is here almost a year after your comment... brand new, all of Valli's disco era LPs have been issued on cd from the label collectors choice. "in my eyes" is prob my fave ballad of valli's too.

I just bought all of em, its 2 lp's per disc, 3 cd's if you wanna get em all - 6 albums in total (i did cause im a valli fan)...they are real and true from the master tapes and sound 10000000xs better than the original vinyl, which some of those lps were pressed badly.

Also, on the "closeup" lp (which is the one your after), "swearin to god" is the full 10:35 as on the 12"...while on the original release they did an early fade out at 9:55.

I have try everything to get a song in the album swearin to god by the name " In my eyes" not my eyes adore you, not can't take my eyes off of you. simply " In my eyes" a beautiful song i've search everywhere , and i can't get it anywhere, i'm willing to buy it or the album but i can't even get that . If you have the answer to my problem let me know please thank you.

I use to have a commercial release version of the 12" which sadly i have lost. Also to add to the debate Tom Moulton has stated in the new edition of KEEP ON magazine ( uk based ) that Swearin To God by Frankie Valli was the first available 12".

I agree with this statement, as I also was of the dj's from Eddie Rivera's record pool.

ANOTHER NOTE ON THIS RECORD....AFTER SPEAKING TO AN ORIGINAL MEMBER OF "THE NEW YORK RECORD POOL" AND A FEW OTHER PEOPLE WHO WERE THERE AT THE START OF THE 12" ERA....SOME HAVE STATED THAT THIS WAS THE VERY FIRST 12" PROMO......
