The epitome of class, talent, kindness and friendliness.From the first time I met
him at age 14 at the Raleigh Hotel he has never strayed from the “nice guy” he
is.He has always made me feelappreciated and proud to be associated with him as a fan.He has a way of making you feel special and
always seems grateful for his success.His soothing voice has always been able to calm my tears and ease my
anxieties. I have always been proud of
the fact the Bobby is such a devoted family man and I consider myself lucky to
be his fan and friend.

Linda Hassan
Wonderful !!!
Christina Greco
Still Top of the Pops.
Michael Yuill
COOL – always did always will.
Yvonne Bartle
“The consummate performer, and all round nice guy!”
Ian Dryden - England
An all round good bloke who went to a “School”, can “Sway” and do the “Cha Cha Cha”, and really, who can “Forget Him”!!
John S Harrison
One of the hot talents and great idols of the early
60’s. Bobby is still an idol to some of
his fans that loved him and bought his records in 1962. His voice and the songs he sings bring back
memories of those days on American Bandstand when we were young and
carefree. We still love you Bobby!
Cecilia Leary
The greatest and most talented well rounded entertainer, which is why he has been successful at performing from the 60’s to
the present. Bobby has continued to grow as not only a singer, but an entertainer who continues to make audiences happy
whether on land or sea. Bobby will continue to do what he was born for, entertain and make the audiences happy!
Maryann Simmons
Perhaps one of the most under rated entertainers in
the world today. Bobby has put his family first during his career, something unique in the industry, this you must
admire in Bobby the person. As an entertainer he is loyal to his fans, always has time to say hello and treats
them as friends. His entertaining capabilities are something else. When
you see him entertain he transports you into another world, a world of
happiness and enjoyment, which too few entertainers today can achieve.
Peter Minigle –Australia
Extremely gifted with a unique voice. There is NO ONE who could render a better
version of “Volare” or “Forget Him” (my 2 favorite songs of his) than
Bobby. In my book, these tunes can Never get “old” as I play both at least once a week.
I am still mystified by his talent today, having bought the “Now & Then” CD.
It is more than refreshing to know he continues to perform.
Dan Hughes
The living end (a real groovy guy).
Gary Wilson
In my eyes, not only the greatest entertainer in
the world but the most influential person in my life.When I met Bobby at the age of 13 I never
realized what an impact just knowing him and being a fan would have.
Because of Bobby….I have made many long lasting
friendships which I will treasure forever.
Because of Bobby….I have many happy fulfilling memories.
Because of Bobby….my daughter has decided to follow in his footsteps with a career in the music industry.
Knowing and admiring Bobby all these years has
enriched my life and made it so Extra Special. Thank You Bobby with all my heart.
Jeanne Alder
One of the finest entertainers of all-time and he
possesses one of the most distinctive voices in music which has given so much
pleasure to all his fans worldwide, including us guys in Australia. Plus he’s a “wonderful” human being and
giving to his fans! What more can you
say about the man! Twistin’ Australia Way, Your “Aussie” Connection
Tasso Matheas - Australia
A singer and performer who represents what was good
about the fifties and sixties to those fans, such as myself, who grew up
listening to his music. This includes his happiness, innocence and decency. And, of course, Bobby and his music represent a developing maturity and
awareness about life. After all, there is a big transition between “Kissin’ Time”, “Swingin’ School”, “Volare”, and
“Forget Him”. But that doesn’t make Bobby only a “nostalgia” act. Bobby’s suburb
musicianship, showmanship, and versatility have continued for over forty years,
making him on of the truly fine performers of high quality musical
entertainment. This is who Bobby Rydell is. This is who Bobby is to me.
Gary Schultz
Legendary!!!!!!
Joyce Takemori – Hawaii
THE HEART OF AMERICA’S ROCK AND ROLL.
Sandy Hewitt
“the best”
Bobby is the master entertainer,
Who brought “Wild One” to us all
As we watched him on Bandstand
And danced “The Cha-Cha-Cha”.
Bobby sang all through summer
About the “Wildwood Days”
As we drank our Pepsi Cola
And the nights began to “Sway”.
Bobby spun on our stereos
With that special Cameo rule
As we did our daily homework
And dreamed of “Swingin’ School”.
Bobby stared back from the movies
As Hugo took the silver screen
While we all loved Ann Margret
And hung on every scene.
Bobby was our hero and friend
As he told of “Kissin’ Time”
While we sat at McDonalds
As he made “Volare” rhyme.
Larry Hatfield
So down to earth when he meets his fans after his shows. I was lucky to meet him several times and he couldn’t have been nicer, taking pictures and signing
autographs. Thank you Bobby.
Laura Taormina
Simply the most talented male performer in show
business – always was – always will be…also the most personable…gives his heart
& soul in a performance and always takes time to meet & greet fans…no
airs about him.
A great family man…who moves me to tears when he
talks about his Italian American Family…in Philly in the 1950’s thru his great
family of today…Since I’m an Italian American of approx same age…with a large
family, I can relate & this makes me proud…His talents are immense…his
image is pristine… Bravo Bobby!!! You’re the best………
Michael A Panigrosso
The most gracious and personable performer I’ve come across in my years in the radio
business. Even if he were a plumber, milkman, or a barber like his “Uncle Pete’
Ricco in Wildwood” he’d still be the kind of guy anyone would enjoy meeting and
talking with. The fact that I continue to listen to and enjoy his many hits is merely ‘icing on the cake’.
Talent is one thing. The integrity & character of a man is yet
another, and the latter aspect is my impression of Mr. Ridarelli. All the best to a very nice fella and thank
you for the opportunity to comment.
Bob Mathers WQSR Radio Baltimore MD
Still normal cool and right on key with his music today as in the 50’s
and 60’s. My wife and I have seen him and Frankie Avalon in Vegas 4 times in the last 5 years. He
has met with us for pictures and autographs. He is a gentleman and great singer.
His music makes me feel young and as though I was still in 1960’s; the good old days. I appreciate his, as well
as Linda Hoffman’s sincerity for sending me pictures and information about our fan club.
BOBBY IS STILL REACHING FOR THE SKY WITH “VOLARE” AND “CHA CHA CHA”; MY FAVORITE SONGS.
Scott Russell
AN ENIGMA OF ROCK N’ ROLL
Louis Ierino
The greatest entertainer in the world.
Jimmy Diele
SWELL!!
Laura Pinto
A class act. In addition, BR is dashing, debonair, charismatic and dedicated to his
music.He proved his staying power by his tireless work as a multi talented entertainer.
Diane Lee from our WAEB radio station said on the air the other day after playing “Volare”, “Bobby Rydell is my man”.Diane hosted Bobby at Stabler Arena in Bethlehemfor
Camelot For Children Charity. BR is very popular in Bethlehem, PA and on the radio stations. WAEB is always playing him.
Jamie, my daughter, ice skated to “Wildwood Days” at the Lehigh Valley Ice Arena with great enthusiasm and the crowd loved the
song.I have always been a BR Fan, now and always.
Elaine Vasko
Many talents rolled up into one unique and wonderful package.
Carol Tengler
A wonderful loving family man and you can surely tell every one walks away from his performance with a smile. Bobby’s songs always stayed with us, playing
and singing along. We had love by the numbers “Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah”.I would love to meet you.
Marti
The ultimate entertainer of yesterday and today!He is the same down to earth “boy next door” today that he was 40 + years ago when I was truly entertained by him
for the first time.His talent is unequaled – he continues to WOW audiences of all ages today.I am proud to call him my friend.
Sandy Courtright
Unforgettable!
Patti Jamison
A very wholesome person. He cares about his fans and is a very family
devoted person.We need more people in
this world like Bobby Rydell.
Diane Mrackoski
I think Bobby Rydell is a wonderful
man! He is so good to his fans. We have seen him in Atlantic City Las Vegas and Westbury, Long
Island. Whenever we see him at Westbury he doesn't mind stopping to say hell-o, sign autographs or take pictures. Not
everyone we see there is like that and we really appreciate it. We love him and
his camaraderie with Frankie and Fabian is the best!!! He knows we're there
because we love him – he doesn't act like he's doing us a favor – he puts
his all into his show and we'll keep going as longg as he keeps coming to these places!!!
Joan Novatt
Someone who keeps me young.Someone who keeps
the friends and family who danced and sang to his music close.A person who really does care about his fan
club and fans who continuously support him.Bobby Rydell is the man.
Al Cohen
The most all round performer with a down to earth personality which makes
him not only a great performer but a wonderful human being.
Barbara J Mcmillan
Out of site.
GarWils4
The quinintessential man with many innate talents making him the quintessential entertainer.
Diane Mrackoski
A great person who really loves his fans and the music he sings. You can tell this by the way he takes the
time to stop and spend time with the fans to sign an autograph, take a picture
with them or just give them a hug! This is a man who appreciates his fans and we appreciate him for entertaining us with
his talent and great songs, in a world where the music is not the same anymore. From this Fan…Thanks Bobby!!
