Jay Boy was a record label established as part of President Records in the United Kingdom, primarily to release records in Britain from American sources.[1] It was formed in 1968 and released records until 1976.

The first release on the label was "You Can't Do That" by Doris Willingham, later known as Doris Duke.[2] In all, the label released 116 singles.[3] Its most successful releases in the UK were originally issued in the US on the TK label, including "Rock Your Baby" by George McCrae, a British no. 1 hit in 1974, and several other hits by both McCrae and KC and the Sunshine Band.
