Background notes
Archive material and source history
Jonas Friedman was born in New York City in 1941 and studied at Juilliard. In the mid-1960s, he joined the pop group The Laurie Project, where he worked with songwriter Bob Crewe. Together they recorded 'Can't Take My Eyes Off Of You' in 1967, which became a major hit.
That song's success overshadowed his other work, which included albums like 'Jonas Friedman' in 1968 and 'Friedman' in 1970. His catalog also contains songs like 'Emerald Bay' and 'Moving On,' but none matched the reach of that single.
His later career was quieter, though 'Can't Take My Eyes Off Of You' remained popular enough for a compilation album in 1977. The song has endured as his defining recording.
