The Jets (Illinois band)

The Jets was a band from Pekin, Illinois, consisting of Mike Isenberg, Graham Walker, Greg Clemons, Greg Wilson, and Randy Kohtz. They were together from 1972 to 1980, and a small amount of their recordings are still available on Twin/Tone Records. After a few months together Greg Clemons and Randy Kohtz left the band and were replaced by bassist Thomas Walker who was with the band until early 1974. Gregg Clemons returned on bass. During this version of the band The Jets released the single "Be For Me" backed by "I Play For You". The record charted at No. 13 but the band crash-landed shortly after its release. The band reformed in Madison, Wisconsin in 1976 with the past lineup of Mike Isenberg, Graham Walker, Thomas Walker, and Greg Wilson. This lineup went on to record on the Twin/Tone label, releasing the single "Lover Boy" backed with "Paper Girl". Both songs also appeared on the Twin Tone album Big Hits of the Midwest Volume III. The band broke up in early 1980.

The Jets (Minnesota band)

The Jets are an American family band from Minneapolis, Minnesota, composed of brothers and sisters who specialize in pop, R&B, and dance music, particularly Latin freestyle.

The group officially formed in 1985 and the original lineup fizzled out by 1990. Several family members remained throughout the 1990s and unofficially revived the group in the mid-to-late 1990s as a gospel outfit including most of the original members.

Various record companies have released collections of songs from the group's popular period, while the modern incarnation of the group continues to perform at various small venues, primarily casinos and private corporate functions.

Background

The original band consisted of the eight oldest children of Maikolo "Mike" and Vaké Wolfgramm, who were originally from the South Pacific island kingdom of Tonga. The family has 17 children, 15 by birth and two, Eddie and Eugene, by adoption. They are members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (Mormons).

    Allowance (money)

    An allowance is an amount of money given or allotted usually at regular intervals for a specific purpose. In the context of children, parents may provide an allowance (British English: pocket money]) to their child for their miscellaneous personal spending. In the construction industry it may be an amount allocated to a specific item of work as part of an overall contract.

    The person providing the allowance is usually trying to control how or when money is spent by the recipient so that it meets the aims of the person providing the money. For example, an allowance by a parent might be motivated to teach the child money management and may be unconditional or be tied to completion of chores or achievement of specific grades.

    The person supplying the allowance usually specifies the purpose and may put controls in place to make sure that the money is spent for that purpose only. For example, a company employee may be given an allowance or per diem to provide for meals and travel when working away from home and may then be required to provide receipts as proof. Or they are provided with specific non-money tokens or vouchers that can be used only for a specific purpose such as a meal voucher.

    Crush On You

    by: The Jets

    Crush On You
    The Jets
    Written by Jerry Knight & Aaron Zigman
    From LP "The Jets"
    Chorus
    How did you know
    'Cause I never told
    You found out
    I got a crush on you
    No more charades
    My heart's been displayed
    You found out
    I got a crush on you
    You must have heard it from my best friend
    She's always talkin' when she should be listenin'
    Can't keep a secret to save her life
    But still I trusted her with all I felt inside
    I never knew a rumor could spread so fast
    'Cause now the word is out all over town
    That I'm longing for you
    chorus
    Maybe I was the one who left the trace
    Was there a message written on my face?
    Were mt emotions so easily read
    That you would know my thoughts before a word was said
    Was it my eyes
    That let you know you had control
    Because the way you move was so self-assured
    You knew I would surrender
    chorus
    Instrumental bridge
    chorus repeat to fade
    From: "daniel"
