December 1963 (Oh, What a night)
Pascal C.
Today, I went to a disc store and buy an album "The Dance Album", and
I'm really sure that the version of the song is not the same than the
version that I usually heard at the radio.
So my question is do you know wath is the album where I could find the
original version of "December 1963 (Oh, what a night)" ?
Thank you, and by the way, sorry for my bad english, I am french.

DECEMBER 1963 (OH WHAT A NIGHT)
Oh, what a night, late December back in '63
What a very special time for me as I remember what a night!
Oh what a night, you know I didn't even know her name
But I was never gonna be the same, what a lady, what a night!
Oh, I got a funny feeling when she walked in the room
And I, as I recall it ended much too soon
Oh what a night, hypnotizing, mesmerizing me
She was everything I dreamed she'd be, sweet surrender, what a night!
I felt a rush like a rolling bolt of thunder
Straining my head around and taking my body under
(Oh what a night!)
Oh, I got a funny feeling when she walked in the room
And I, as I recall it ended much too soon
Oh what a night! Doo dit doo dit dit doo dit doo dit dit
Oh what a night, why'd it take so long to see the light?
Seemed so wrong, but now it seems so right, what a lady, what a night!
I felt a rush like a rolling bolt of thunder
Straining my head around and taking my body under
(Oh what a night!)
I felt a rush like a rolling bolt of thunder
Straining my head around and taking my body under
Oh what a night! Doo dit doo dit dit doo dit doo dit dit

"December, 1963 (Oh, What a Night)" was a #1 hit for The 4 Seasons in 1976.
In 1994 they released a dance remix version of it which peaked at #14.
Sounds like you got that version.
The 1976 version was on the album "Who Loves You" by The 4 Seasons
(Warner 2900). I don't know if it's still available or not but I'm sure
you'll find compilation albums with the song.

I think Ken was only trying to say that the Rhino compilation contains a
copy of the original 1976 version as opposed to the 1994 dance remix. I
don't think he meant to imply that the 1988 Rhino compilation was actually
the first release of the song.

that they almost always use the original version of a song, I was just
letting you know where to find it on a single disc with all of the other
Four Seasons bigger hits. This disc also has hits by Frankie Valli solo
and The Wonder Who. Most all the Seasons hits were in the sixties,
except
for the song in question which entered the charts in late December 1975
& peaked at #1 in 1976 for 3 weeks.
