Jay and the Americans have always been a top favorite of mine since the early 70’s and its nice to see three of the original members sill involved. The majority of older singing groups you are lucky to have one original member if that. Example check out the Vogues, not one original member and have the gull to share stories of “back in the day”. Rest In Peace Jay Black and condolences 💐 to your family.
Jay 3 ALWAYS pays tribute to Jay Black in EVERY SHOW..... He's a class act . He idolized Jay Black his wrhole life. Truth of the matter is, the original members bought David into the group after Jay Traynor screwed up. Then after all the hits PRODUCED BY SANDY, they went their separate ways and three original members Sandy ,Marty and Howie, they are carrying on the sound. . Get over it. They are doing a great job. Go see them
@@captainpete2993 oh , is that so ?? He idolized Jay Black ???? Then he could’ve had the respect enough not to steal his band and his name. !! Sorry , I’m not going for that sob story !! 😠😠😠😠😠
hi i wrote i found 3 i looked on your page its only this one ? dont know if there was more ? my health life goten worse room i found to rent conditions are very very bad so need more cheering u did great job i love there outfits never saw them before so if there are more could u please post would really appriciate more than u could imagine thank u please let me know thank u
jay didnt steal the name sandy is the one who started the group & when jay black filed bankrupsy sandy hired this jay who was singing there songs in his own band for yrs &jay number 3 i love his voice !!! he can hold the notes fantastic peformer !!! more passion then the others!!
@@merlemunque1876 The point is, because of legal issues they got to use the name and the Americans. This guy is a far cry from Jay "David Blatt" Black or John "Jay" Traynor. He is not good! AND the original band was Sandy Deanne, Kenny Vance and Howard Kane. Jay was still singing at 79 and sounded better than this guy.
@@billferron5865 That has no bearing on the fact that he was and will always be the original Jay Black and he will always be Jay and the Americans, not these fools; 🙄😆 How dare they try to even sing his songs or make themselves appear to be anywhere NEAR his greatness ????? 😡😡😡😡😡😡😡
This guy sounds great! And by the way Jay Black had a gambling addiction and owed the IRS $500,000.00 and filed bankruptcy which we all pay for. Wikipedia

Well if Jay Black hadn't been an idiot and lost the name, he'd still be there. Fortunately the ORIGINAL Americans saved his ass and bought the name so there isn't an imposter band doing the rounds

Sandy keeping it going. What a great production.!!
I agree, only one Jay, not this one.
I knew immediately it wasn't Jay. The voice quality and distinctive sound was not there. Didn't even have to look at him.
It still has the same so 2:05 2:07 und ,😊❤ My aunty Ruby listened ever Day AND I Love The song to God loves
There's only one Jay Black and the Americans !! He can never fill Jay's shoes.

Jay Traynor was the original Jay.
@@billferron5865 And who doesn’t know that what are you telling that to me for? I think we should just end this conversation, thank you🤨
@@kattrakee You need anger control management. Jay Black wasn't a nice guy and was not appreciative of his fans. Jay Traynor was.
You're no Jay Black! Pity.

Jay Black at 65 still sounded better than this guy. Not even close in comparison.

This is NOT Jay and the Americans, it is the cover band, not even close
The three old guys were in the original band. Yow, two of them played at my high school in 1964,

This newest Jay does sound quite a bit like Jay Black though.
Maybe they could just call the group "The Americans".
SAD...............NOT EVEN CLOSE
ARE YOU SERIOUS???

Nope
NOT THE SAME without THE VOICE.
Jay and The Americans without Jay Black is mediocre at best & this new "Jay" isn't that good. 😐👎
Without Jay Black
you’re just a Milque-toast wannabe tribute garage band ;
Sorry , it’s true !!!!😏
Well if Jay Black hadn't been an idiot and lost the name, he'd still be there. Fortunately the ORIGINAL Americans saved his ass and bought the name so there isn't an imposter band doing the rounds
Quit calling this Jay and the Americans.
PU
Imposter
Awful
David Blatt was no better!
Ron West ,
You are SO wrong 😡😡😡😡😡
@@kattrakee he was AWFUL later on!
WRONG... 😡😡😡😡
He was ALWAYS EXCELLENT.
You must be tone-deaf, and decidedly STUPID 😡😡😡😡😡
@Ron West : you are absolutely WRONG. 😡😡😡😡
David Blatt was EXCELLENT.You’re obviously tone- deaf and stupid 😡😡😡
