The Catalogue Tapes Volume 5
Kensington Girl/Kingston Girl
VARIATIONS ON A THEME
As we were working these tapes we would make lists of people who didn’t
write their own songs and might need a new song to fill out an album.
We would match artists and styles to the songs in the catalogue.
In the background at one of these brainstorming sessions as Bob Marley
was playing on the radio, a light bulb went on. We all smacked our heads
and thought...”We could have had a V-8.” Then another lightbulb went on: Reggae. Out of all the genres of music we were playing with, we did not have
a reggae tune. Greg, Ray and I put our heads together and it made a loud clunk like coconuts banging together and Kensington became Kingston.
Greg started to sing the song with a Jamaican accent. We recorded it for
posterity. I was rummaging through old tapes and found this version hidden with some other oddities. We decided to add this ‘bonus track’ to this album.
Yes, it’s totally fine to laugh at Greg doing this version of the song.
We all did. We hope you enjoy it, too.

After sorting through all the tapes it looks like we are going to have 9, yes count them 9 volumes in the 1969 through 1984 catalogue of Greg Stier''s songs. Collect them all! Trade them with your friends!
When we get to volume 9 we''ll be posting a list of the songs in chronological order so you can make an iTunes playlist to hear them that way if you wish.
