- On July 4, 1987, Valli and The Four Seasons appeared live on an HBO TV special as part of an all-day benefit for Vietnam veterans titled "Welcome Home".They performed several of their hits, including "Can't Take My Eyes Off You", the signature song from The Deer Hunter (1978).

- We were looking for something new. It was very important to establish a sound, so that people heard a record on the radio and knew immediately that it was you.
- I do belong to Jersey. There's no doubt about that in my mind. They have been so loyal and so good to me, how could I possibly belong any place else?
