Jerry Blavat's rockin' life story pulses with celebrity names, infamous episodes and "offers readers an insider's view into the golden era of rock and roll and pop music and entertainment" raves Publishers Weekly . The long-awaited autobiography of entertainment icon Jerry Blavat, You Only Rock Once is the wildly entertaining and unfiltered story of the man whose career began at the age of 13 on the TV dance show Bandstand and became a music legend. Lifelong friendships with the likes of Sammy Davis Jr. and Frank Sinatra, a controversial relationship with Philadelphia Mafia boss Angelo Bruno that resulted in a decade-long FBI investigation, and much more colors this amazing journey from the early 60s through today. Now, some 50 years after his first radio gig, Blavat puts it all in perspective in this uniquely American tale of a "little cockroach kid" borne out of the immigrant experience who lived the American Dream. "synopsis" may belong to another edition of this title. Jerry Blavat was one of the early rock-and-roll deejays who revolutionized the profession and invented the “Oldies” format. He had national success in the ’60s as host of the popular CBS-TV dance show The Discophonic Scene, but is best known as a high-energy oldies deejay on the air and at live events throughout the Middle Atlantic region. With a successful nightclub outside Atlantic City, NJ (Memories); regular radio shows on 88.5 FM WXPN in Philadelphia, 92.1 FM WVLT in South Jersey, and 98.3 FM WTKU in Atlantic City; and scores of sold-out live dance events every year, Blavat is as popular as ever. He lives in Philadelphia, PA. Please visit him at geator.net. Publishers Weekly “This soulful memoir by a “little cockroach kid from South Philadelphia” offers readers an insider’s view into the golden era of rock and roll and pop music and entertainment.” Publishers Weekly , 7/15/11 “Writing a narrative that teems with zest and hipness, Blavat invites readers to accompany him on the inside track through the early days of doo wop and R&B to his national stature as an influential figure on the pop scene. This soulful memoir. offers readers an insider’s view into the golden era of rock and roll and pop music and entertainment.” Philadelphia Daily News "Trust us, it's a page turner. chock-full of family drama, music, business dirt, celebrity encounters, mob connections an even some juicy sex." Photos and Phone Books. YOU ONLY ROCK ONCE: MY LIFE IN MUSIC – JERRY BLAVAT – *** 1/2. Jerry Blavat, the Geator With the Heater, the Boss With the Hot Sauce, was a huge part of my youth and the face of the music that I, and all my friends, listened to in our teens and early twenties. Then, as now, we weren’t always big fans of Blavat himself but we did embrace the songs he played. We also attended his record hops at places like Wagner’s, Chez Vous and memories in Margate. No question about it, Jerry Blavat was an integral part of growing up in Philly. In his autobiography, Blavat traces his start from dancing on American Bandstand, his relationship with the host of the show, Bob Horn and later, Dick Clark. There are some interesting stories about his entry into the music business but most of the book consists of The Geator reminiscing about his relationship with many of the great stars of the sixties and seventies, Frank Sinatra, Sammy Davis and Don Rickles to name a few. If there was ever a book devoted to “name-dropping” this would be the one. Blavat also feels it is important that we are aware of just about every sexual encounter that he has had since he was fourteen and he spends much of the book recounting those bedroom exploits. Blavat’s friendship with local mob boss Angelo Bruno brought him years of government harassment but he continued to remain loyal to his friends despite the interference from the law. You Only Rock Once is certainly a book devoted to self-praise but it’s still has enough of interest to those who grew up in this area in that era to enjoy the many memories that are brought to life. I would give this *** ½ stars. You Only Rock Once : My Life in Music. Although people always remember the music of their youth, they often forget who introduced them to it.

  • Tyrone & the Nu-Ports
    This article reproduced with permission from “Echoes of the Past” magazine, Issue # 88 (2009). © 2009, Classic Urban Harmony LLC. All Rights reserved. Feel Like A Million: The Story of Tyrone & the Nu-Ports by Charlie Horner With contribution from Pamela Horner Tyrone Herbert Johnson was born in Camden, NJ, on October 18, 1942. While he never lived to see his 43rd birthday, Tyrone accomplished more in his life than most people ever dream of. Tyrone and his vocal group, the Nu- Ports, had only two records under their own name; one a local and one a national hit. But the group was immensely popular in Philadelphia and surrounding areas, leading to work in the Catskills and eventually to an engagement in New York City’s famed Carnegie Hall. Tyrone and the Nu-Ports burst onto the scene like a burning meteor in the early 1960’s, be- fore any members of the group were even twenty-years-old. Within two years, the groups’ career had been extinguished, victim of a tragic accident. But for those of us who knew Tyrone and his group, or even for those who were familiar with their records, Tyrone & the Nu-Ports will forever be remembered. South Jersey during the 1950’s was a heterogeneous mix of inner city (Camden), working class communities and farmland. It also was home to a number of well-known Afri- can-American night spots, particularly in Lawnside (just east of Camden) and in the coastal resort of Atlantic City. At the time there was no Atlantic City Expressway, so the main routes connecting Philadelphia and Atlantic City were the White Horse and Black Horse Pikes.

  • SAINT NICHOLAS of TOLENTINE CHURCH a Centennial Celebration St
    1912 100th ANNIVERSARY 2012 SAINT NICHOLAS OF TOLENTINE CHURCH A Centennial Celebration St. Nicholas of Tolentine 910 Watkins Street, Philadelphia, Pa. 19148 215 463-1326 100th Anniversary Year (1912–2012) To the Familiy and Friends of St. Nicholas of Tolentine Church, Celebrating 100 years as a Parish Church is quite an accomplishment. What we are celebrating is not a building, but a people who have been and are still dedi- cated to a particular building that represents who we are as a Catholic Community. The good people of St. Nicholas Church, past and present, have a marvelous record of com- mitment to their Church. From the time of the Italian Immigrants who settled in South Phila- delphia in the late 1800s until today, the values of faith, family and tradition have been the driving force of this Parish Community. That is why our Centennial Committee chose these important values as the theme for our 100th Anniversary Year. The immigrants who migrated from Italy realized and understood how important these values were for them as newly arrived people and strangers in a foreign land. Faith, fam- ily and tradition kept them united and secure as they encountered the many difficulties and problems they found in their new land. Although they missed their towns and villages and the families they left behind in Italy, their experience here in America was made somewhat easier because they found support and community as a member of their Church—San Nicola di Tolentino at 9th and Watkins Streets. This Commemorative Book provides you with a vivid history in words and pictures of their experience; one that details how faith, family and tradi- tion made a dramatic impact on the lives of so many people who were and are still a part of this Church Community.
