Artist: Percy Dixon and His Merry Boys

LP: Scandal In Montego Bay

Song: "Kinsey Report"

[ listen ]

Here's an old Jamaican calypso ditty from 1964 about Alfred Kinsey and his revolutionary indoor-sports reports, "Sexual Behavior In the Human Male" (1948) and "Sexual Behavior In the Human Dame" (1953). The famed biologist is also known for creating the Kinsey Scale, where a rating of 0 means a person is exclusively heterosexual and a rating of 6 mans they're exclusively homosexual, with many people rating somewhere in between. The gentleman on the cover of this album, for example, is a Kinsey 5. Notes and photos from the back of the LP are included below.
