Jerry Jaye

Jerry Jaye (born October 19, 1937 in Manila, Arkansas) is an American country/rockabilly singer.

After his return he started a band with bassist Tommy Baker and drummer Carl Frye, who began playing the local Arkansas circuits.

In 1966, the group traveled to Memphis, Tennessee, and recorded a single, "My Girl Josephine" (a hit for Fats Domino the previous decade).

The single was initially released in a press run of 500; Jaye shopped the disc to local radio stations, and as the tune began getting airplay, Jaye signed a contract with Hi Records for national distribution.

In 1975, Jaye signed with Columbia Records, first releasing a cover of Tommy Edwards's "It's All in the Game".
