Welcome to my latest blog. I have been working on this blog since August 2010, and have been exposed to many types of music, and many types of artists. But you have to go back to when I was growing up to get a complete picture of the music that I was exposed to during my life. There have been many eras, many changes in musical styles and trends and I have either tried to adapt to current trends, or possibly more likely, to veer off on my own and check out music that suits my taste, be it popular or not.

| The legendary Stone Pony in Asbury Park, where many of a Jersey artist, be it obscure or well-known, has played. |
During the past few years, I tried to do something special to celebrate each anniversary of this blog, and this year I decided to come up with something different. I am a Jersey boy, through and through, and many of the artists who have hit it big---or haven't---have crossed my path. So I set out on an extensive project to determine the bands, artists and even personal friends, who have made music that I've listened to. The one constant is that all of these artists have come from New Jersey---either born and raised or have spent their careers, including pre-career and post-career in the Garden State.
While the number of artists from here pale in comparison to those from, say, New York, Philadelphia or Los Angeles (that would be a nightmare to compile), making a list of Jersey-oriented artists was just enough to make this research fun.
Keep in mind that this is not a definitive listing, only ones that I have determined, based on the top 100 lists that I have compiled since 1964, going to the present day. Tabulations are based on giving point values to my top 100 (and beyond in some cases) year-end lists.
One of the challenges of doing this project is determining who is eligible to make the list. While bands like Bon Jovi have formed and remained based in New Jersey are no brainers, I have found that some artists weren't from Jersey at all, but perhaps set up shop here for a few years, such as The Isley Brothers. They are included here. There are bands that many do not think of being from here but are listed because either the front man/woman or at least two members of the band were originally from here. Some were born here and quickly moved away, and some settled here after the successes long dried up, but they count.
Below are the artists that ranked from #100 to #81. This is not necessarily a ranking of my favorites, but rather an accumulation of points from the years from my lists from 1964 through July 11, 2021; thus artists that have been around for longer periods of time will naturally rank higher.
For each artist, I show the following:
Jersey Connection: Pretty much the reason why I included this artist, whether they were born and raised, or spent some time before, during or after their success here.
Years Considered: This is not necessarily the years they were successful, or the years they were active in music, instead the years represented here are those whose songs made my year-end lists or had significant songs then. Note that 1964 is the starting point, and that some of these artists were around before that, but only songs from 1964 onward were considered.
Top Billboard Hits: This a list of some of the artists' biggest hits on the Billboard Hot 100. For those artists that didn't make the big chart, but did on the genre chart, such as alternative or country, positions are listed there.
Blog Hits: These songs made my Scenes 'n' Soundwaves 100 list, starting with my launch in August, 2010, the bigger songs are listed here.
Personal Year-End: These are the biggest songs that ranked on my year-end lists that I had been making since 1964.
So, without further adieu, here we go!
100. The Angels
Years Considered: 1964
Top Billboard Hits: "My Boyfriend's Back" (1963, #1); "Till" (1961, #14)
Personal Year-End: "Wow Wow We", #139, 1964
You could probably call this classic girl group "Jersey Girls" as they were pretty much the female answer to the Four Seasons. In fact, in the movie "Jersey Boys", based on the successful Broadway musical, the group was featured. Since I only considered songs from 1964 on, that meant I had to leave out their big #1 hit, "My Boyfriend's Back" from the year before, otherwise, they'd rank much higher. They never charted again after "Wow Wow We", and had to change their name to The Halos because of legal issues with the name "The Angels". The band's original lead singer, Linda Jansen died in 2019 at the age of 79.
99. Whirling Dervishes
Jersey Connection: Band based in Westfield.
Years Considered: 1992
Personal Year-End: "Death of the Party", #68, 1992
One of a handful of bands that originated in my home county of Union, The Whirling Dervishes were popular on the Jersey Shore circuit. They were supported by shore alternative station FM 106.3 (WHTG-FM). The members of the band were all from Westfield and went to either Westfield High or Union Catholic. One of the members (not sure which one) dated a girl, also from Westfield that I had later dated, in the early 90's. Aside from "Death of the Party", which I heard on WHTG-FM in the summer of '92, the band is also noted for their take on "You're A Mean One Mr. Grinch", which got as high as #4 on my Christmas Top 100 and on my holiday list from 1999-2018; that version was played on many rock stations, in contrast to the Thurl Ravenscroft original present on the adult contemporary ones.
98. Lauryn Hill
Jersey Connection: Born in Newark, raised in South Orange
Years Considered: 1998
Top Billboard Hits: "Doo Wop (That Thing)" (1998, #1); "Ex-Factor" (1998, #21)
Personal Year-End: "Doo Wop (That Thing)", #64, 1998
While this Jersey native has acted (originally with Whoopi Goldberg in Sister Act 2: Back in the Habit), it was hip-hop that she became a big star. She was part of the Fugees, with Wyclef Jean in the mid-90's, one of the hottest acts in that genre. But it was her solo debut, "Doo Woop (That Thing)" that captivated me, especially the video. The song was a mix of 90's hip-hop and 60's soul, a genre that is one of my favorites. The video showed a split screen of a street festival from 1967 and one from 1997. She was equally adept at both singing and rapping. She won Best New Artist at the 1998 Grammy. Dissatisfied with the music industry, she dropped off the scene around 2002.
97. Blackfoot
Years Considered: 1979
Top Billboard Hits: "Highway Song" (1979, #26); "Train, Train" (1979, #38), "Fly Away" (1981, #42)
Personal Year-End: "Highway Song", #92, 1979
While the band is more associated with the Southern Rock genre, based in Jacksonville, FL and many of the members went in and out of fellow southerners Lynyrd Skynyrd, for a while in the early to mid seventies many of the members lived in Stanhope, Budd Lake and Hackettstown and frequently played clubs in that area. Their name comes from the fact that most of the members had Native American ancestry. Their "Highway Song" does echo "Free Bird" with the guitar jam the last half of the song. The band tried to change their sound for the MTV era in the early eighties, but their popularity declined. With many members, the band, which split a few times, have been together again since 2004.
96. Joey Powers
Jersey Connection: Singer spent many years in New Jersey after his chart success; also managed musicians that would become Bon Jovi
Years Considered: 1964
Top Billboard Hits: "Midnight Mary" (1964, #10)
Personal Year-End: "Midnight Mary", #124, 1964
Born Joseph Ruggiero, he was originally from Washington State but soon moved east. He was a "one hit wonder" with "Midnight Mary", released in late 1963 and scored top 10 just before the British invasion, which probably explains why he never had another hit. But he later moved to New Jersey, running a booking agency in Hazlet, a recording studio in West Orange (Jethro Tull, and Aerosmith, among others, used the studio). He was also the manager for the Jersey band Phantom's Opera, which included three future members of Bon Jovi--Richie Sambora, Tico Torres, and Alex John Such. More recently, he became an ordained minister based in Keyport.
95. Sea of Otters
Jersey Connection: Band originally based at the Jersey Shore; later originated in Jersey City
Years Considered: 2020
Blog Hits: "I Tend to Offend" (2020, #15)
Personal Year-End: "I Tend to Offend", #67, 2020
The band originated in the 1990's and played many of the clubs at the Jersey Shore. While they disbanded for a time, a revised lineup reunited around 2010, centered around their Jersey City home. In 2015, they released a self-title album which contained some of their vintage songs that they had performed back in the day. Headed by Nick Ciavatta, they still perform in their home city, and Nick also heads up Friggin' Fabulous Productions, which stages local acts from the Jersey City scene, both with online performances, and the occasional live "Groove on Grove" shows.
94. The Parlaments/Parlament/Funkadelic
Jersey Connection: Band originated in Plainfield
Years Considered: 1967, 1976-1978
Billboard Hits: "I Wanna Testify" (1967, #20); "Tear the Roof off the Sucker" (1976, #15); "One Nation Under a Groove", (1978, #28)
Personal Year-End: "I Wanna Testify", #157, 1967
Another band that originated in my home county of Union, the band was headed by George Clinton. Their hit, "I Wanna Testify" was pure 60's combo of soul and doo wop. By the 1970's, Clinton evolved the band into two units, Parlament and Funkadelic as well as their sound to funk. Both bands had R&B success in the 1970's, that carried over to pop by 1976 with Parlament's album Mothership Connection. Both units had major hits during the late 1970's, but disbanded in the early 1980's.

93. Karen Wallo
Jersey Connection: Singer is from Bound Brook; plays gigs in Central and South Jersey
Years Considered: 2020
Blog Hits: "Rain Away My Sorrow" (2020, #10)
Personal Year-End: "Rain Away My Sorrow", #60, 2020
Born Karen Deering, she was raised in Bound Brook. I got to know her as a Facebook friend, and from mutual friends who I had known back in the 1970's. She played in several bands that performed around the state, such as Burn the House Down, and her current band, Jersey Cowgirls, who are active and playing gigs in South Jersey. I had asked her if she had any albums out; turns out she cut an album back in 2009 We're In This Together. I jumped on the song "Rain Away My Sorrow" and put it on my blog playlist which reached top ten in 2020. I hope to catch Jersey Cowgirls soon, as well as get a new album from her or the band.
92. The Ad Libs
Jersey Connection: Group is from Bayonne.
Years Considered: 1965
Billboard Hits: "The Boy From New York City" (1965, #8)
Personal Year-End: "The Boy From New York City", #169, 1965
This soul/doo-wop group formed in Bayonne, were originally known at The Creators, in 1964. This was their only big hit, a follow-up only reached #100. The group only had one more R&B entry in 1969 but stayed together until 1982, a year after their hit song was covered by Manhattan Transfer and hit #7.
91. Fiona
Jersey Connection: Born and raised in Phillipsburg
Years Considered: 1985-1989
Billboard Hits: "Talk to Me" (1985, #64); "Everything You Do (You're Sexing Me)" (with Kip Winger) (1989, #52)
Not to be confused with Fiona Apple, Fiona Flanigan was an aspiring rock singer and actress whose star was clearly on the rise in the 1980's. Her first chart hit, "Talk To Me" landed on the Hot 100 as well as Billboard's Mainstream Rock chart. She was an actress as well, most notably opposite Bob Dylan in Hearts of Fire, for which she also sings some tracks from it. However, the movie was widely panned. In 1992 she formed a short-lived band under her first name, but left the music industry to go to college at UCLA. She returned to record an album in 2011. These days, she raises her two children. Fiona is the daughter of Irish immigrants.
90. 7 Minds
Jersey Connection: Band based at the Jersey Shore
Years Considered: 2000
Personal Year-End: "Seaside Tony", #43, 2000
I don't really know much about this band, other than they are based at the Jersey Shore, and, like the Whirling Dervishes at #99, got a lot of airplay on WHTG-FM, "Modern Rock at the Jersey Shore". They are known for their anthem "Seaside Tony", about an Italian from "North Bayonne" who hits all the shore nightclubs, all decked out in chains, etc. This was well before the MTV reality series Jersey Shore, which pretty much focused on that scene. The song was cut in 1999, but it was the summer of 2000, when I returned to the shore scene (after a four-year layoff) that this was played on the radio all summer. It was sort of the "last hurrah" for WHTG-FM as new owners Press Communications bought the station in November of 2000, it was still alternative but played national acts as opposed to local ones. 7 Minds released an updated version of "Seaside Tony" in 2012 called "The Deuce" which is more EDM-oriented as opposed to the rock sound of the original.
89. Tytillidie
Jersey Connection: Grew up in Sayreville, his mother was a classmate at Roselle Park H.S.
Years Considered: 2021
Blog Hits: "Doomsday", (2021, #9)
Tytillidie is the stage name of aspiring hip-hop artist Tyler Jones. He was recommended via a post from his mom, Joanne Oehler, who I had went to school with (along with her sister Linda Samolewicz). He is one of several artists who I found out about from posts from parents and friends. He has released two albums thus far, including this year's EP, Nocturnal. He recently graduated from Penn State and is presently out in Hollywood on an internship with the PGA. Sounds like this guy is going places in several directions. Good luck to him!
88. Bryan Hansen Band
Jersey Connection: Band based in New Jersey, played the major venues and festivals in the state.
Years Considered: 2021
Blog Hits: "Waiting For Tomorrow", (2021, #8)
Per their website, The Bryan Hansen band is an Triple-A band that melds rock, R&B, soul and funk, and are influenced by everyone from Stevie Wonder to Dave Matthews, John Mayer and Al Green. Hansen released a solo album in 2013 but was soon joined by William Blakey and Cwan Merritt. They have released three albums thus far.
The band came to my attention during last year's holiday season when they, along with featured vocalist Kim Boyko released a video of a new version of "Christmas Wrapping", originally done in 1981 by The Waitresses. In the wake of that, I added their 2020 single "Waiting For Tomorrow" which reached my top 10 earlier this year.
87. Halsey
Jersey Connection: Artist is from Edison.
Years Considered: 2015-2020
Billboard Hits: "Without Me" (#1, 2018); "Bad at Love" (#5, 2017); "Closer" (with the Chainsmokers), (#8, 2016)
Blog Hits: "You Should Be Sad", (#36, 2020); "Closer" (with The Chainsmokers) (#38, 2016); "Without Me" (#76, 2018).
Personal Year-End: "You Should Be Sad", #95, 2020.
Born Ashley Nicolette Frangipane, Halsey is one of the current successes in the Garden State, and has encompassed many genres. Her first EP came out in 2014, after gaining exposure via the Internet. Her first three albums went to either #1 or #2. While she has battled some controversies as well as health issues, she has pushed through them all. A niece of one of my Roselle Park friends is one of her backup musicians for her live performances. Her fourth album is due on August 27.
86. Dionne Farris
Years Considered: 1995
Billboard Hits: "I Know" (#4, 1995)
Personal Year-End: "I Know", #36, 1995
This artist from New Jersey could do it all: Pop, rock, funk, hip-hop, you name it. And that's just music. Born in Plainfield ( that seems to be the town to be from to have success!), her parents named her Dionne after another Jersey talent, Dionne Warwick. She grew up in Mercer County and took dance lessons in Hamilton Twp at the age of 3 and was a big fan of Diana Ross growing up, attending a concern of hers at the age of 8.
She studied photography at Mercer County Community College and participated in a local pageant, singing Whitney Houston's---Warwick's cousin--"Saving All My Love For You". Her breakthrough was singing on hip-hop band Arrested Development's hit "Tennessee" and two other songs from that group's debut, however she was never officially part of the band. Her first solo single, "I Know" was a massive hit, reaching #1 on Billboard's Mainstream Top 40 chart for 10 weeks. Local rock station WDHA also played the song. She was a musical guest on Saturday Night Live and performed that song. Although she performed songs on three soundtrack albums, The Promised Land, The Ghost of Mississippi and The Truth About Cats and Dogs, unfortunately, her album follow-up didn't see the light of day until 2007. She released three albums in the 2010's, the last being Dionne Dionne in 2014.
85. Lenny Welch
Jersey Connection: Artist raised in Asbury Park; went to Asbury Park High School
Years Considered: 1965
Billboard Hits: "Since I Fell For You" (#4, 1963); "Ebb Tide" (#25, 1964); "Breaking Up is Hard to Do" (#34, 1970)
Personal Year-End: "Darling Take Me Back", #153, 1965
Welch was a singer squarely in the pop arena and had songs on the Easy Listening (now Adult Contemporary) chart in addition to the ones listed above. When the hits stopped coming, he left the music business and continued his education. While he didn't initially finish high school, he went back for night classes and received his G.E.D., while driving a cab during the day. His last big hit, a cover of Neil Sedaka's "Breaking Up is Hard to Do" was a slowed down version of the original, possibly inspiring Sedaka to re-record it himself at that tempo (which hit top 10 in 1976). Welch has also sung on commercials for Coca-Cola, Subaru, M&M's and Oreos.
84. Patti Smith
Jersey Connection: Artist grew up in Pitman and Deptford Township; collaborated with Bruce Springsteen on "Because the Night"
Years Considered: 1978-1979
Billboard Hits: "Because the Night" (#13, 1978); "Frederick" (#90, 1979)
Personal Year-End: "Because the Night", #88, 1978
Often called the "Punk Poet", Smith, who had gone to Glassboro State College (now Rowan University), moved to New York City in 1967 and eventually became part of the developing punk rock scene there in the mid 1970's at places like CBGB's. She was even briefly considered for the lead singer spot in Blue Oyster Cult. She formed a band, The Patti Smith Group, and released her first album, Horses, in 1976. It was her third album, Easter that hit paydirt, with the Springsteen collaboration "Because the Night" becoming a big hit. The following year, she dented the charts with "Frederick", named after Fred Smith, whom she had just married. Together they had a son, Jackson, who would marry another musical icon--The White Stripes' Meg White. Patti put her music career on semi-hold to raise her son, releasing only one album in the 1980's. However, Fred died of a heart attack in 1994, and her friend Michael Stipe of R.E.M. urged her to go back to recording. She responded with Gone Again, a tribute to the late Kurt Cobain. Smith has recorded many albums since, the most recent being 2012's Banga.
83. John Eddie
Jersey Connection: Moved to New Jersey in the 1970's, owns clubs in the state, E-Street Band featured on his debut album.
Years Considered: 1986
Billboard Hits: "Jungle Boy" (#52, 1986);
Personal Year-End: "Jungle Boy", #21, 1986
This artist was born in Richmond VA, but moved to New Jersey in the 1970's and was part of the club scene here. His first recording was singing backup vocals on Bryan Adam's hit "Somebody". His signature song (and only big hit), "Jungle Boy" was first recorded with his band The Front Street Runners in 1984 and got airplay on Trenton Top 40 station WPST. He was signed to Columbia records, but instead of the Front Street Runners, Columbia made him use Bruce Springteen's E-Street Band to back him up on his eponymous debut album. The re-recorded version of "Jungle Boy" hit the Hot 100 and also #17 on the Mainstream Rock chart. His follow-up, The Cold Hard Truth in 1989 didn't do as well and was dropped by Columbia. He continued to record albums thru 2012's Same Old Brand New Me. He is still active in the business, having a song in the Zac Efron film, At Any Price, and is collaborating with Priscilla Presley in an animated project about Elvis Presley's incursions as a U.S. spy. Eddie also owns at least a couple of clubs in the state, one in Wildwood. And although I couldn't find an official confirmation, some of my friends told me he has (or had) one in the Belleville area as well.
82. Dean Friedman
Jersey Connection: Born and raised in Paramus.
Years Considered: 1977-1978
Billboard Hits: "Ariel" (#26, 1977);
Personal Year-End: "Ariel", #30, 1977
This talented singer-songwriter grew up in Paramus, which also happened to be the backdrop for his big hit, "Ariel" which takes place at the Paramus Park mall. The song was a big hit in the summer of 1977.
While "Ariel" was his only U.S. chart hit, he had an international hit the following year with "Lucky Stars" which was a duet with Denise Marsa. He has done music in other venues including television work, and films. He has also done virtual reality and other technical works as well.
A friend of mine, Stephen Harris, named his daughter Ariel after Dean's hit song.
81. Janis Ian
Jersey Connection: Born in Farmingdale, attended East Orange H.S.
Years Considered: 1967, 1975
Billboard Hits: "At Seventeen" (#3, 1975); "Society's Child (Baby I've Been Thinking)", (#14, 1967)
Personal Year-End: "Society's Child", #67, 1967; "At Seventeen", #148, 1975.
This talented artist started learning piano at the age of 2, and quickly developed a repertoire as a singer and songwriter. Her debut single "Society's Child" was ahead of it's time, with its theme about an interracial romance that was frowned upon by her parents, teachers and others. In fact, the song was banned by several radio stations. It was originally released in 1965 but Atlantic Records turned it down. It was released again the following year but didn't make any noise. Finally, the third time was the charm as it became a hit in the summer of 1967. It wasn't until 1975 that she had another hit, "At Seventeen", about dealing with popularity (and lack of it) in high school, told from an older person's viewpoint. Janis made history as one of the musical guests on the very first Saturday Night Live, broadcast in October, 1975 on the heels of her big hit.
Janis still records, and this year (2021) released her 23rd album, Hope.
******************************************************************************************************
AND CURRENTLY: During my "Jersey Countdown", it will be still business as usual regarding my currents playlist. And the battle continues between ScreenAge's "Going Back" and Middle Kids' "Questions" as the former regains the top position from the latter (which had taken honors from "Going Back" last week. Both songs are strong and with a powerful message. This makes it the eleventh week that a female-led band has resided in the top spot, and nine of them have been from Emily MacMahon and company. But also strong is the Screeners' own "Questions" which is still bulleting (but holding at #3), and could conceivably take the top spot next week. If it does, it will rewrite a few more blog records that this extraordinary band has attained. Again, if you get a chance, catch ScreenAge on tour. It was posted on "Roselle Park Loves Arts" Facebook page that this band will be making a return to that September 25 festival "by popular demand"! See, I'm not the only one in this band's corner! And if I sound like a broken record talking about them each week, so be it. This youthful band is breathing new life into a genre that seems to have been pushed aside the last decade or so.
Elsewhere in the top 20, there isn't much change. Like a race with all winners, with the exception of the previously-peaked "Sacrifice" and "Think Again", the top 19 are all gaining, most with bullets but are either holding steady or moving up one position, with the exception of Saint Motel's latest, "It's All Happening" (27-19). While it effectively blocks other songs from entering the upper regions, these songs are worthy of multiple listens and I am not tired of them. It's nice to have gluts of excellent songs these days.
PARTY LIKE IT'S 1986: Six debuts this week, with two of them with "1986" in the title, but neither of them reflects any of the mid-80's sound (but hey, it was a good year, especially it you were a Mets fan!). The top debut is the return of a blog favorite, Nick Waterhouse, with "B. Santa Ana 1986". The Los Angeles singer, songwriter and producer was a force on the blog between 2017 and 2020, going 8-for-8 in top 20 placements, and that includes three #1's, one of which, "Straight Love Affair" was my #1 song for 2018. The artist just released his fifth album, Promenade Blue and is now on tour. The song is his usual style of retro, keyboard-oriented jazz/pop and it never seems to be tiring. His music is always a breath of fresh air in contract to much of the music out there. The song enters at #54. His East Coast tour starts next month and will be at the City Winery in New York on August 17.
Some other strong debuts include the new single from Kings of Leon, "Echoing". I've always loved this band's sound, and this one is no exception. While I was unable to push the band's previous song higher than #32, it deserved to be higher. I still love Caleb Followill's voice....Milky Chance returns with "Colorado". The German band follows its first blog top 20 ("Don't Let Me Down", with Jack Johnson), with a very strong, soulfully done lightly guitar-driven pop/rock rhythmic song that should be their best yet
With "Day at the Beach" still in the top 10, here comes David F. Porfirio yet again. He had been promoting his "1986" instrumental much of the past few months. While I thought this was a new album, it turned out to be a single instead. While he must have had a reason to call the song "1986", the song is in his usual modern-day guitar-and-drum style and is an original, that's just different enough from his prior songs to score his sixth top 20 in the row.
Winding up the debuts are the latest from Imagine Dragons, "Weekend" and a return of a seminal British new-wave band, The Stranglers, with the rather mellow (for them), "The Lines".
