Radio, TV, record hops and appearances all over the Delaware Valley. Jerry still owns “Memories” in Margate, NJ.
Jerry works at various clubs most nights. While many refer to James Brown as “the hardest working man in show business,” the title should belong to Jerry Blavat.
In April of 1998 he was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. On Nov. 22, 2002 he was inducted into the Hall of Fame of The Broadcast Pioneers of Philadelphia.
Take the opportunity to dance and singing along to the music that was the “Soundtrack of our Lives.” at the legendary Sunnybrook Ballroom.
