Jerry Kay and the Galaxies were from Morrow, about 25 miles NE of Cincinnati. The band were students at Little Miami HS in Morrow. Jerry Kay was lead singer, his full name was Jerry Kay Wells. The other members were Gaylord Poe on lead guitar, Buster Rose on organ, Terry Irwin on bass, and Bobby West on drums.

The band recorded a 45 in Cincinnati, which includes two sides of plaintive teen garage, the A side has some interesting chord changes. The band won a Batlle of the Bands contest in Cincinnati which led to the feature posted above from the March 9, 1968 Cincinnati Enquirer. 

That's all we have for now...
