Note. Due to a printing error, many of the tracks on the first
100 copies printed of Kitten On The Keys are out of order.
I deeply regret any confusion this may cause.

If the track listings on your copy of Kitten On The Keys
does not match the list on this page, please
send me your name and mailing address.
I will send you, free of charge, a new booklet
and tray card.
