Groupe Doo
Wop puis Pop/ Rock US de New York.
Though they
had a bunch of hits across the 1960s, Jay & the Americans were a throwback to a
previous era with their doo wop-influenced vocals, neatly groomed, short-haired
appearance, and mix of pop/rock with operatic schmaltz. Built around the
neck-bulging upper-register vocals of David Blatt (aka Jay Black), their biggest
hits -- "She Cried," "Cara Mia" (which you could just imagine Carmine Ragusa
singing on Laverne & Shirley), "Come a Little Bit Closer," and "Let's Lock the
Door (And Throw Away the Key)" -- came off as sort of hit parade versions of
West Side Story. The group also relied on outside songwriters for their material,
drifting into MOR covers of oldies by the end of the '60s, and were generally a
sort of textbook of unhipness during a time when self-contained rock bands were
becoming the norm.
In a sense, Jay & the Americans were the original "oldies" act -- organized at
the transition of the 1950s into the 1960s, the group sounded like a throwback
to that earlier decade, at a time when harmony vocal groups -- at least those
without some guitar wattage accompanying them -- were already becoming old hat.
Yet, somehow, they competed with the likes of the Beach Boys, Jan & Dean, and the
Four Seasons, among homegrown rivals, and remained a major presence on radio
even during the British Invasion, and lasted long enough to meet up -- like a
glider catching a brisk, sustaining wind -- with the oldies boom at the tail end
of the decade. They seemed out of place for most of the 1960s with their short
hair, neat clothes, and dedication to schmaltzy pop, but by the end of the
decade were perfectly positioned for the so-called rock & roll revival.
The group actually coalesced out of the Mystics, a Brooklyn-based harmony vocal
group (best remembered for "Hushabye"), which had taken on John Traynor (aka Jay
Traynor) as lead singer at the very end of the 1950s. Traynor chanced to cross
paths with Sandy Yaguda (aka Sandy Deane) and Kenny Rosenberg (aka Kenny Vance),
who were part of a vocal trio working behind a female singer on a Clay
Cole-sponsored tour at the time. Traynor got together with Vance and another
friend, Howie Kerschenbaum (aka Howie Kane), after leaving the
Mystics in 1960, and they started singing together, with Sandy Deane joining
to make it a quartet. It was on the strength of their demo of an old Five
Keys number, "Wisdom of a Fool," that they were signed by producers/songwriters Jerry
Leiber and Mike Stoller to a contract -- Leiber & Stoller gave the group a name, the
Americans, and got them a recording contract with United Artists, the newest in
a wave of record labels spawned by movie companies, and eager to grab a piece of
the rock & roll action of the period.
A recording of the Bernstein-Sondheim song "Tonight" from West Side Story -- a
United Artists film release, in which the parent company had an interest in the
publishing as well as in publicizing the movie -- came out both better and
different from the way it was expected, featuring Traynor out in front as lead
singer rather than an ensemble vocal at its center. Leiber & Stoller decided
that the group would be better off with a lead singer's name in front and, after
some attempts to turn the name into a joke, settled on Traynor's lifelong
nickname "Jay" as the front name -- hence, Jay & the Americans were born.
Released in the summer of 1961, "Tonight" performed well in New York City --
where the group was based, in the borough of Queens (later made famous by Archie
Bunker and Kevin James' sitcom The King of Queens) -- and a few other cities and
regions, but never charted nationally. Its sales were limited to around 40,000
copies, and were overshadowed by those of a rival instrumental recording by the
piano duo of Ferrante & Teicher (also on United Artists), who scored much bigger.
It was once they broke away from tie-ins with current movies and chose some
fresh, unique material that the group's fortunes took off, with their second
release, "She Cried." Originally a B-side, this was the record that broke the
group nationally -- six months after the single was released with "Dawning" as
its A-side (and did absolutely nothing), a DJ in San Francisco flipped it over
and began playing "She Cried," which started working its way east, hitting
number one successively in a dozen major cities from the West Coast to the East
Coast over the next few weeks and months, and number five nationally.
The group lost momentum after this unexpected break, however, when a trio of
attempted follow-ups, including their version of a Ben
E. King song, "Yes," spread between a pair of singles, failed to perform
nearly as well. Their future hit a seeming crisis point, however, when Traynor angrily
left the quartet after a fight with Sandy Deane. Suddenly, the group was without
a lead singer -- while Traynor went off to a professional liaison with Phil
Spector that didn't take, and a few solo sides that never sold, the Americans found
a replacement in one David Blatt, who'd sung lead with a group called the
Empires and, after some coaxing, came aboard as "Jay" Black. A "new" Jay & the
Americans was spawned that year, expanded to a quintet with the addition
of Blatt's longtime friend, guitarist Marty Kupersmith (aka Marty Sanders) --
with his addition, incidentally, the Americans, with whatever "Jay" was fronting
them, were starting to look a lot like the
Coasters and the
Drifters, both vocal groups associated with Leiber & Stoller who kept their
own respective guitar players on tap. The resemblance wouldn't end there, where the
Drifters were concerned.
The new group's first two singles disappeared without a trace in early 1963, but
in July of that year, they roared back up the charts with a single called "Only
in America" -- Leiber & Stoller had intended it for the
Drifters, but with the civil rights movement raising everyone's
consciousness, and the streets of urban and southern America getting too hot to
handle, it was impossible for a Black vocal group to release so seemingly
optimistic an ode to the U.S.A., even if it was laced with irony; the risk that
the irony would be missed was too great. But in the hands of Jay & the Americans,
who didn't seem topical or serious, it just worked, and got the group back onto
the radio and to number 25 on the charts. Alas, their next record, "Come Dance
with Me," didn't do nearly as well in the fall of 1963. But in the summer of
1964 -- right in the middle of the British Invasion, with American acts dropping
from the charts like flies in the winter time -- they were back in the Top Ten
with "Come a Little Bit Closer." The product of what seemed like an unfinished
session, the Wes Farrell-authored record, produced by Artie Ripp, was released
without Black's knowledge and roared to number three, their biggest hit since "She
Cried." They followed it up with "Let's Lock the Door (And Throw Away the Key),"
an adenoidal romantic anthem (also authored by Farrell) that peaked at number
11. They tried for a chart hat trick with Farrell's "Think of the Good Times,"
but it fell short.
And then came "Cara Mia" -- if Roy
Orbison hit a defining moment with "Only the Lonely," and Del
Shannon had his with "Runaway," then Jay Black's was "Cara Mia." And he had
to fight to get it released -- one of those odd pop/rock songs displaying an
operatic intensity (like "Only the Lonely" or "Runaway"), it just wasn't what
the group seemed to be about, completely different from their recent hits. It
was finally released after a performance on The Tonight Show yielded thousands
of cards and letters requesting it -- as a B-side, which was flipped over. The
resulting number four hit in mid-1965 maintained the group's stubbornly high
profile, amid the likes of the Beatles, the Rolling Stones, et al. The follow-up
single, "Some Enchanted Evening," reached number 13 in the fall of 1965. The
hits slackened off somewhat in 1966 and 1967, as "Sunday and Me," released late
in 1965, peaked at number 18. They still had an audience, however, especially in
New York City, where a lot of kids loved the fact that the girl who ran their
national fan club had her mailing address -- her house in Whitestone, Queens, no
less (those were such innocent times) -- listed on their albums, and that it was
right there in the city.
They wouldn't chart another hit that high for three years -- their version of Roy
Orbison's "Crying" reached number 25, but nothing else made the Top 50 --
but there was still plenty of work, doing commercials and touring. There were
also some interesting LPs: Jay and the Americans (1965), Sunday and Me (1966), Livin'
Above Your Head (1966), and Try Some of This (1967). The group's sound did
somewhat cross over folk-rock and sunshine pop -- "(He's) Raining in My Sunshine"
from Try Some of This even displayed some elements of psychedelia. "Livin' Above
Your Head," authored by Sanders, Vance, and Black, was a much bigger European
hit for the Walker Brothers, considerably better than the group's own single,
which peaked at number 76. They also crossed paths with a pair of young
musicians from the New York area, Walter Becker and Donald Fagen, who became
regular session players and increasingly prominent in the group's work. By that
time, the quintet was also using more than one producer on many of their
records, including Leiber & Stoller, Gerry
Granahan, Jeff Barry, and Arnold Goland, and just as many arrangers --
needless to say, consistency wasn't a hallmark of their sound during this period,
and their chart positions suffered for it, especially as they tried to sound up
to date à la 1966-1967.
Jay & the Americans returned to the charts late in 1968 and the first half of
1969, when they adopted a new strategy. Instead of trying to assimilate
psychedelia and other contemporary sounds, they turned back to the songs that
they'd known in the 1950s and early 1960s. The resulting album, Sands of Time,
was accompanied by "This Magic Moment," a number six hit (selling twice as many
copies as the
Drifters' original single). Two more singles, "Hushabye" (harking back to the
Mystics, Jay Traynor's group) and "When You Dance," lit up the airwaves. By
that time, American popular culture had splintered into competing and often
seemingly opposing camps -- psychedelic music (especially in England) was
generating offshoots like art rock and progressive rock, while artists
associated with acid rock were delving more deeply into such forms as blues and
jazz, and somewhere in the midst of all of it arena rock was starting to
coalesce. Meanwhile, some listeners, either those in their thirties who'd never
quite gotten used to musicians using (and endorsing) drugs, or the resulting
music, or younger ones who just didn't know what to make of all the noise -- and
the fighting in the streets, and the open political warfare on the airwaves --
were turning backward to a simpler time and its music.
Jay & the Americans found that audience, and never lost it. Sands
of Time was a confirmed hit as an LP, and was followed up with Wax
Museum, which wasn't as well executed but yielded a hit in the form of the Phil
Spector co-authored "Walkin' in the Rain." The group was back on track, but
for some reason, at this point, United Artists Records tightened up on their
recording budgets and became careless with the group's recordings and the way
they were treating the members. By the early '70s, the quintet had parted
company with UA, after ten years of success. By then, each member had a good
idea of what he wanted to do, and mostly it didn't involve Jay
& the Americans as they'd been known.
In the split, Jay
Black kept the group name -- which, after a court settlement with Jay
Traynor carved out a way for each to make a living through their status as
one of the group's "Jays" -- and kept recording into the 1970s and beyond. Marty
Sanders began writing songs (and enjoyed a recent hit, in collaboration with Joan
Jett, on "Bad Reputation" from the movie Shrek) in addition to playing and
recording, and Sandy
Deane became a producer, while Kenny
Vance became a recording artist in his own right. In the 1980s, an archival
live album of concert recordings from the tail end of their history, augmented
with some Jay
Black solo sides and outtakes of both lineups, delighted fans and won the
group some new admirers. In 1990, Come
a Little Bit Closer: The Best of Jay & the Americans from EMI (successor
company to United Artists) solidified their chart legacy in a coherent fashion.
And BGO's reissues of their LPs on CD in the 21st century have resulted in there
being more Jay
& the Americans material in print at once than at virtually any time in
history. John
Traynor, the original "Jay,"
died of liver cancer in Tampa, Florida in January 2014; he was 70 years old.
