Yes, Tommy DeVito on lead guitar. Thanks. When they were the 4 Lovers, Tommy's brother Nick DeVito was in the group too as the bassist, until he left in 1958 to be replaced by another Nick --- Massi. 🙂
Big Man's World is an original song, an album cut, from the Seasons' 5th album (Mar 1964) that I claim was a major inspiration for Uptown Girl, style-wise (not the lyrics). I gave an explanation as to why I believe that. I'd sure like to ask Joel if my observation is correct.
During the 60s, besides the Stones and Beatles, the 4 Seasons really did some "magic" to me, hard to describe, their songs just moved me in a major way. BMW was not on the radio since it was an LP cut, but it was on the after-school TV show "Hall Of Fun" in rotation.
Many other songs during the 60s did 'things' to my heart too, but those 3 groups did it the most.
