 Baby Boomers do a lot of reminiscing about everything from "Venus" to "Bobby Sox to Stockings" when Frankie Avalon takes the stage! Avalon, who made the transition from "Teen-age Idol" to mature professional, has a career that now spans three generations of music, television and motion pictures. The Philadelphia youth started out as a musician..a trumpet player. Good enough to make a guest appearance as a trumpet player on The Perry Como and Jackie Gleason television shows, Frankie Avalon was on his way to stardom. A long string of Gold Record million-seller singles and albums, Frankie starred in the highly successful "Beach Party" film series. Dramatic roles in "The Dark," "The Alamo," and "Voyage To The Bottom Of The Sea" followed.
