Give some credit to those who wrote out the strings' parts. The violins sounded just like they did on the original recording

[dellrays]

the credit should go to T.J. Labinsky &

Henry Deluca & there tech's

[dellrays]

one more thing he was never kicked out of the passions... and i'm glad he's back with the group...i've been replaced by jimmy the original lead singer not a wannabe.

[dellrays]

just a quick note to all you guys who got the wrong information about jimmy gallagher having a serious drug addiction. i've been singing with jimmy for almost all my life. and he is as clean. he has never had a drug addiction that's a fact! who ever is passing that crap around was misinformed. i sang with the passions for many years. also grew up with jimmy. ( believe little of what you see & nothing of what you hear)....lou

Who are the five sharks...Or do you mean the FIVE SHARPS (stormy weather?)

[1959passions]

Eddie get your story correct before you make a statement...Do the math 1960 should ring a bell.

[rakeuiff]

@dellrays If you are singing with him then you know that two of these guys are Steve Horn and Frank Mancusco neither sang with The Passions, Lou never sang with The Original Passions but with a later version. So this is more miss information on your part , I understand doo wop shows are uptight for original members , but me a Steve Horn were in the 7th grade when Just to Be with You was a hit. and Ithink it sad that Bruce passed them off as them..

I will be drumming for Jimmy Gallagher on January 28 2011 at the Coral Springs Center For The Arts in Coral Springs FL. Google the venue if you'd like tickets. Also appearing will be George Galfo's Mystics, Shep's Limelites, Ernie Valens (cousin of Ritchie), Brian Best as Buddy Holly, and The Interludes. If you go, stop by after the show and say hello!.....Joe

Saw Jimmy and the Passions on August 9. They are great! Superb! Unbelievable! May Jimmy and the group go on for a long, long time! Jimmy's voice was as soft and strong as ever!

@dellrays I think Jimmy Gallagher is one of the greatest singers that ever lived. I have tried to get current info on him and also where he is appearing. Can you tell me this?
