Just imagine this phone call: A.D. Amorosi on the line with The Geator.

Don’t cry for Jerry Blavat, the Geator, who, along with Christy Springfield and Charlie Bennett, get yanked from WPEN when the station goes sports talk in October. (Rumor: They only went oldies in 2004 because they needed to perfect their lousy signal.) Blavat is set to rerelease all of his Discophonic Scene footage onto DVD. DS was the TV show he hosted starting in 1965, starring not only a young Geator in his own clothing line and performances by the dancing-girl Geatorettes, but interviews between Blavat and Sonny & Cher, Marvin Gaye, Aretha Franklin and a hundred more. “It’s the Blavat TV years, priceless stuff that myself and my lawyer, Alan Arrow, (Jagger, Liza) are getting together for European release,” says Blavat. Next up: Could Jerry be hooking up with Little Steven for SIRIUS satellite radio?

This post is so full of crazy miracles we don’t know where to start.
