The Four Seasons' "Sherry", was originally called "Terry." The group loved it and performed it over the telephone for their producer, Bob Crewe, who liked everything about it but the name. After considering "Jackie" (after Jackie Kennedy), and "Peri" (after a record label Crewe had a stake in), the group changed the name of the song to "Sherry," after Cheri Spector, the daughter of one of Crewe's best friends, a DJ named Jack Spector. Bob Gaudio, who was the organist/singer with The Four Seasons, wrote this song and quickly became the group's primary songwriter. Previously a member of The Royal Teens (Short Shorts), he formed The Four Seasons with Frankie Valli the previous year. According to Gaudio, this song came to him very quickly, and he wrote it in less than 15 minutes. He says it took the group longer to decide upon a name for the song than it took him to write it.
