Joe Long was a bassist for the Four Seasons, who played on their later hits including “Can’t Take My Eyes Off of You.”A New Jersey native like the rest of the Four Seasons, Long was classically trained and learned to play on a double bass.

He later switched to electric bass, and he played with other local bands before the Four Seasons called. It was 1965 when the Four Seasons needed a new bass player after original member Nick Massi left the band.

Long joined the band after the era of their first mega-hits, but he was there for popular songs including “Opus 17 (Don’t You Worry ‘Bout Me),” “Can’t Take My Eyes Off of You,” “C’mon Marianne” and “Who Loves You.” Long left the Four Seasons in 1975.
