Sorry to report it as our aging rockers pass on. He was 82. Didn't die young-that's good.

Jay had a great voice, and they had a nice run.

I saw him on a PBS program a while back. It was from some years ago, but he was already advanced in years. Age had taken nothing away from his voice. RIP

“This Magic Moment”

Such a great song. I always saw the girl of my dreams in that song.

He didn’t age well. Good looking guy when he was younger.
