Norman Jay MBE (born Norman Bernard Joseph on 6 November 1957) is a British club, radio and sound system DJ. He first came to prominence playing unlicensed "warehouse" parties in the early 1980s, and through his involvement with the then-pirate radio station Kiss FM. He is commonly attributed as having coined the phrase "rare groove".

He is a life long fan of Tottenham Hotspur football club.

In October 2019, his autobiography "Mister Good Times" was released by Dialogue Books. The audiobook version was published by Hachette Audio and was narrated by David Monteith
