HearAtLast Holdings Inc. (PINKSHEETS: HRAL) is pleased to welcome
aboard our new national spokesperson, Mr. Bobby Curtola. He was
recently compared to Justin Bieber in a recent Canadian magazine;
VueWeekly
(http://vueweekly.com/music/story/justin_beiber_vs._bobby_curtola/);
featuring their similarities from being Canadian and selling
millions of gold records around the globe.
Bobby's hit "Fortune Teller" was released in 1962 and went Gold
in Canada where a major US record deal was signed and Fortune
Teller went on to become a 2.5 million seller internationally.
Bobby was invited to tour with Dick Clark and his Cavalcade of
Stars. 1972 became a turning point for Bobby. He made the
transition from "teen idol" to the "highest paid entertainer" in
Canada. Ready for his debut in Las Vegas, Walter Kane, from the
Hughes Hotel chain, signed Bobby to a five year multi-million
dollar contract. This made him the first Canadian entertainer to
receive a long term contract in Las Vegas. Bobby continued a very
successful career in Vegas for over twenty years.
Bobby's list of awards and achievements are:
- One of the first Canadian artists to receive the RPM Gold Leaf
Award in 1966 for Top Male Vocalist (now known as the Juno
Award)
- Inducted into The RPM Magazine Canadian Music Industry Hall of
Fame by Walt Grealis

Content ruling (the beginning of the CRTC)
- One of the first artists to be a partner in his own publishing,
recording and concert promotion companies

1997

Those same teenagers that followed Mr. Curtola are today's prime
age for hearing aid use. After years of performing concerts live on
stage, Bobby himself recently became a hearing aid user. Like most
users, Bobby spent many years missing details, asking people to
repeat things, and constantly cupping an ear in effort to hear
louder or clearer. Now he claims it has enhanced his quality
dramatically; his only regret is that he did not do it sooner.
Bobby has been using the Neuro-Compensator and is a testimony to
the new technology as he commented... "as a musician, sound quality
means everything to me and these devices are amazingly natural.
It's changed my life. So much so, that my wife even got a set and
she is thrilled with them."
Bobby and the marketing team at HearAtLast are preparing to
commence a tour of radio stations, hearing clinics, and educational
seminars to promote awareness and acceptance of hearing loss. Bobby
has quickly become an ambassador in helping people of all ages take
the first step towards a new beginning, by taking a complimentary
hearing test at one of the HearAtLast state of the art hearing
clinics.
HearAtLast expects that this tour will lead to testing of
thousands of patients who have, for one reason or another, put off
having their hearing tested.
