My father, the legend in the red shirt, was a musician in the 70’s and achieved limited local success in/around Philly, Atlantic City, and Newport, RI. Until recently, I assumed that this was just a candid shot of bandmates. While going through old pictures, a friend asked if was Freddie Prinze Sr. and Tony Orlando. They were likely in the same 1970’s Atlantic City clubs scene, but while I can see resemblance’s, I am still not convinced that these weren’t just some random guys who played a gig or two with dad. Can anyone confirm?

Knock three times…
Nope, those so called famous people vyed for a spot to hang out with your dad
That’s Abe Froman, the Sausage King of Chicago.
Can’t speak to who the others are, but I wish I could have partied with your dad.
Did we save Tony Orlando’s house?
Does he have a yellow ribbon in his pocket?
Paul from the diamond center?
Not them
Guy on the left has one heck of a Charles Bronson impression.
Sheriff Lobo?
Was your dad the reincarnated Mark Twain?
Temu Tony & AliExpress Freddie.
Sorry, those are just randos.
This is Freddie Prinze senior. And he died really young so this is what he look like at the end of his life. I don’t know who these guys are but I don’t think one of them is Freddie. Edit: Maybe the guy in the middle? Hard to tell.
My comment and reply to this is a picture of Tony Orlando with Freddy Prinze.

I’m not sure who anyone is in this picture, but I believe you know what your dad looks like so that’s nice
The guy on the left is Paul Bufano. I don’t know if this is going to help you out at all, but he was also a frequent guest on the Colgate Comedy Hour. He did panels with Paul Julian, the guy who did the voice of the Road Runner. “Beep-beep.”
Tony Orlando and Dad
Badges, we don’t need no stinkin badges.
It’s confirmed, Chase from Good Mythical Morning is indeed a time traveler.
those legendary moist aches and the sharp styling on the suits show exactly why seventies nightlife photography Carrie’s so much timeless energy
The Captain sans Tennille
The Bowtie Bunch was only moderately famous.
Vitto and Tony Gabagool
That’s not Tony, wrong nose.
