Details:
Jens Bohlitz, born in 1965 in a small village in East Germany was considered a child prodigy by the time he was seven years old. He performed throughout Germany and was offered a position for entertaining in California in his late teens.

After many performances in California, he moved to Nashville, Tennessee where he had the opportunity to meet composer, Ray Gay, who originated from Cleveland, Ohio.

Their wives, Lucille (Rayâs) and Rebecca (Jenâs) became immediate friends and soon they were a foursome doing everything together.

With Jens being a previous concert pianist, Ray Gay had written a concerto and classical waltzes and Jens was just the right person to perform and arrange his compositions.

The end result being âMy Loveâs Concertoâ which Ray wrote for his wife, Lucille, and âReminisce,â a collection of waltzes.

Listen to these beautiful melodies and soon you will feel yourself waltzing with a loved one through the four waltzes.

Jens Bohlitz presently resides in East Germany and performs with his wife, Rebecca for four years. Check the website of: www.firstclass-duo.de to hear their music. Jens composes the music and Rebecca writes the lyrics in English.

Jensâ most recent credit is that he wrote the official âWorld Cupâ song for Hessen for the World Cup Games being played in Germany. He is also the producer of music for Relyon Records and may be reached at www.relyonrecords.de .

One 3/2/06, Ray Gay passed away and left many songs for the world to hear. They included the following on the NORMANDY RECORDS label:

Since 1948, Ray has had his music recorded on 78s, 45s, cassettes and cds. During the Korean War, he served in the Army with the Military Police from 1952-54 and also entertained troops in Japan and Korea with a musical group called the âGil-Raysâ. He loved telling stories about sharing the stage with Dick Contino (world-famous accordionist) and the late Marilyn Monroe where they met in Japan.

He also was the first American to introduce polkas/waltzes to the Japanese people. At Radio Station WJCR he had a weekly one-half hour show where he spoke in both English and Japanese.

He is best known for his hits of âPolka Music Oooh Boy,â âAre You The Girl?â âStand Up and Cheer,â a Cleveland Brownâs song, and âPolka-Re, Polka-Ra.â He also has written many country tunes, which may soon be available through CD Baby.

He was a member of ASCAP and has two publishing companies: Ray Gay Publishing, ASCAP and LuJean Publishing, BMI.

His wife, Lucille and son, Ray Gay, continue to promote his music. Music books are available for the two polka albums by contacting them at polkas@cox.net.
