"Happy Clients"
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Dear Frankie,
Thanks for bringing That’s
Italian to the McCallum Theatre. The
show sold beyond our expectations and the audience response has been
outstanding. The audience left the
auditorium thoroughly entertained.
This unique combination of
artists makes it work. Julie LaRosa
still delivers a song as well as anyone in the business.
Pete Barbutti is perfect as the comic relief for the evening, Dick
Contino got a standing ovation halfway through his set and your singing brought
a true “Sinatra” touch to the show.
The audience enjoyed the
singing, humor and camaraderie which showed how much fun you were all having on
stage.
Mitch Gershenfeld
Director of Presentations and
Theater Operations at The McCallum

Dear
Larry
The
presence of “That’s Italian” on the Centre East stage was truly a winner!
There is no substitute for talent, and the amazing show starring Pete
Barbutti, Dick Contino, Julius LaRosa and Frankie Randall is as good as it gets.
Vincent Falcone deserves the accolades he has received nationally.
I
loved working with this entire cast of true professionals and there was no
request refused in an effort to promote the show on T.V., radio or newspaper
interviews.
By
the last performance we were family and their sparking performance still has us
smiling weeks after the curtain closed.
Good
luck on this wonderful show.
Sincerely,
Phyllis
Cowen

Hello, Frankie:
Hooray! I received my CDs today. You can't imagine how quickly I
wanted to listen to them. We started listening to them when we sat down
to supper. We both thoroughly enjoyed them and listened to them until
they were finished, long after we finished eating. Our Bose system
really brings out all the sounds. My husband asked me if I had your
telephone number and I told him 'no-that your call came in restricted.'
He was going to call you that minute.
We loved hearing the difference in the two recordings. We listened to
the 'Then & Now' first and then the 'Right Now.' We knew all the
songs on the 'Right Now' and have to admit that on the 'Then & Now' there
were a few that we hadn't heard before. But that's not to say that they
weren't good because they were. We just weren't familiar with them.
We heard some Frank Sinatra recordings the other day that we had never heard
before. We have 'Dish' satellite and they now have Sinatra sirrius. We
listen to that quite a bit.
I looked at my Dean Martin DVDs and they are called 'The Best of the Dean
Martin Variety Show.' There are 11 different ones. The names of
the performers in that show are listed on the front of the cover, but unless
they don't list all of them, your name wasn't there. I was hoping
that I could have found a performance by you. It would have be fun to
see what you looked like then. We enjoyed the picture that you sent of
you and Dean. You must have been about 20 years old. Such a good
looking fellow!
We are driving out to our daughter's, who lives near Des Moines, Iowa,
tomorrow and will be listening to Frankie Randall in concert all the way.
This isn't Cyd's mother, but our other daughter. I want to have Cyd
listen to you as she is really good at knowing who is a good singer. It
always impresses me when she listens to someone and she knows right away even
if they are off a little bit. You should hear her when it
comes to American Idol.
I want to order the album "Here and Now.' Should I go through
PayPal again? Is that easier for you?
I sincerely am grateful for all your help in getting my CDs here so fast.
Even the mail delivery was quick. I am really impressed that
you took the time to call me and do all that you did.
Thank you so much for writing back to me also.
I am your new fan,
Shirley

Dear Mr. Randall,
I am the lady you talked to on the phone last week. Just wanted you to know
that I received my CD and that I am just overjoyed. My husband and I have
listened to it every night since we got it, it brings back so many memories
for us. My husband said that he had forgotten how many great songs there were
on it in addition to our favorites. Thanks again, look forward to seeing you
in 08 when you perform in Palm Springs again.
Sincerely,
Mary Jane Cleveland
P.S.
Also wanted to tell you how much your phone call meant to me. My husband just
couldn't believe that you took the time personally call me. We are your
biggest fans. May you have the Merriest of Christmas's and a very prosperous
and Happy New Year.
