US/UK singles discography
NOTE: Peak Chart Positions are from the Billboard Hot 100 chart. The UK chart positions of three singles are noted ("You're Ready Now", "Sleeping Man" and "The Night") because of their uniqueness in The 4 Seasons/Frankie Valli history. Their chart positions come from the book Guinness British Hit Singles by Paul Gambaccini, Tim Rice and Jo Rice (sixth edition 1987).
