Vinny Vella is like a lot of famous New Yorkers. He's a Living Landmark. Mr. Vella should be officially bestowed that honor reserved for great people who are everything New Yorkers are all about!

@OdysseyNews

Actually the producers don't upload the shows. I just happened to be there that night working the sound board and taped this from the control room. Best heard with head phones. But I'm not sure I know if he archives his shows either.
