John Jefferson Scavella

A generation who grew up
on radio made Jeff the superstar
Disco Jockey of the 60s, 70s and
80s.“This Is The Out Island You
Ask For It Show” crooned Jeff
Scavella and it was unheard of to
touch that dial until he had spun
his last record on ZNS radio every
Saturday night at 11pm. Jeff hailed
from Hatchet Bay Eleuthera and
his bass voices over his “Lutra”
inflexes gave his voice the Howard
Stern touch to keep a generation
of Bahamians tuned into our
music as only Jeff could play –
“Whose Making Love to Your Old
Lady While You Was Out Making
Love” on the front half and fuse it
into “Everything I do the Monkey
Want Do.”
