A Reggae label, owned by Dennis Harris and distributed by D. L. International. Western Kingston issued several singles in Britain in 1976, numbering them in the WK-500s. The catalogue number of Pat Francis's 'Rasta Protest', WK-506, suggests that there ought to be at least five others, but Googling has supplied only two: 'Clean Up Woman' by Samantha Rose (WK-504), and the Merry Makers' 'Untouchable Special' (WK-505). Thanks to Mark Griffiths for bringing the label to my attention and for supplying whatever information this page contains; thanks also to Charlie Chalk of the 45cat site for the use of his scan here. The Pat Francis record had mid-blue-and-white labels rather than green-and-white, but all the singles had large spindle holes after the usual West Indian fashion.
