A Jewish father and an Italian mother gave birth to Jerry Blavat, an American performer and disc jockey. He significantly contributed to the radio’s promotion of oldies music.
Jerry’s myasthenia gravis issues and other medical issues led to his death on January 20, 2023.
Jerry Blavat’s age was 82. From 1965 to 1967, Philadelphia icon Blavat produced and hosted The Discophonic Scene, a dance program for “all my yon [sic] teens” that was comparable to American Bandstand (which debuted in Philadelphia a decade earlier).
The Geator with the Heater and “the big boss with the hot sauce,” is what Blavat referred to himself. Blavat’s autobiography, You Only Rock Once: My Life In Music, was published by Running Press in July 2011. After going through a third printing, it was released in 2014 as a paperback and an audiobook.
Blavat was chosen as the “Best Philly Icon” in a 2018 reader survey by Philadelphia magazine. Four of the late DJ’s daughters exist.
