Wow. I didn't realize he was who sang all those great songs. Gone too soon.

One of the greatest, if not the greatest singer in the genre.

Love you a d your songs heaven has all the great ones rest in peace

Saw John perform for the First time with my then Fiancé 1977 in Brooklyn. We hired Ricky Mango s Vand to play at our wedding at the Nsrraganzet inn on LI 1979. During a Break Rick came over with Johnny who actually stopped in to say hello and Congratulate us he actually Remembered us. He was Gracious enough to do a song for us with the Band. One of a kind voice. Later on My cousin and I formed a Band called The Li paramounts. And managed to play some gigs opening g for Johnny and the Bridge....

You represent the very best in doo wop lead singers, revered by by the entire "streetlights" culture...R.I.P. Johnny Maestro!

Arguably the greatest vocalist in the genre of doo wop!
