@icabod31 Wow! I'm a huge fan of Jaye P's... her voice is one of my all time favorites. Have all her albums and singles.. just love her! Is there an address I can write to her at? I'd love to get an autograph or just have an opportunity to tell her how much her music means to me. Thanks - Matt
@icabod31 wanted this comment to go to @kingslydaddy, but perhaps you, icabod31, may be able to get it to him.
Jaye P. sang at my Senior Prom in 1952 at the Mission Beach Ballroom in San Diego. She was the vocalist with the Frank De Vol Orchestra.
In 1962, I met a gent by name of Chuck Kelly who sang with Paula Kelly and the Modernaires (no relation to Paula, simply name coincidence). Chuck told me that he was married to Jaye P. - didn't tell me what years, however. Will continue new post.
@icabod31 also @kingslydaddy .....I assume Chuck was married to Jaye P. AFTER kingslydaddy - at least would hope so. At the time I met Chuck, he was married to Bev Kelly ....a very good jazz singer. They're now divorced ....stuff happens. Bev went on to become a psychologist and Chuck became a mystery novel writer with a couple of successful books. I am still in contact with Chuck and Bev, but I am no longer in contact with Jaye P. She's pretty much a recluse, I hear.
@icabod31 Appears as if I was a tad confused!! Comes with the territory at 78 years of age! OK ...so YOU'RE Mike Baiano! Was Chuck Kelly lying to me when he said he was married to Mary Margaret (Jaye P.)? I'm easy, actually, and I believed Chuck. So now, inquiring minds want to know your side. I'll give Chuck a call after I receive your response. Doesn't matter really, Chuck's a great guy and I'm sure you are, too. You in the biz? majskyking at g mail dot com Give me a shout on email.
Talk about re-inventing yourself for a new generation. Could you imagine that lady in the picture having every other word bleeped out on The Gong Show?
Thanks for the post. As I have been going over the posts of Jaye P., it is surprises me the variety of style she could do well. I can see as I watched as a kid why Merv Griffin use to have her on all the time.
if you check out the game show 'make the connection'-the panelists must make the connection between the 2 guests-one episode was hoagy carmichael and the man who owned the piano that he composed 'stardust' on...it's here on youtube
Fairly recently a gentlemen had actual video of Jaye P. singing this song with her brothers on some variety show. Unfortunately due to copyright laws that clip was taken down. I had the original 45 rpm in mint condition so decided to post it! Glad you enjoyed!
@wholesomesweetness86 .......I saw this video on Youtube and had downloaded it, but that laptop had a blue screen of death and I lost the video. BUT...I still have he audio of that performance on my IPod! I really liked it. Great vocal and harmonies by Jaye P and her brothers. She looked FANTASTIC, too and smiled throughout the performance. I wish it could be put back up. I mean, it was over 50 years ago...to hell with copyrights !!!
C'mon, folks ... nice song from way back. Ya know ... when your mom and dad were young and you had a babysitter. No? Hello? Testing! Is this thing on? Anybody here?
stunningly beautiful family-voiced harmony!
