Thanks, Parsongs. Missed this news. He was an innovator. I remember hearing ‘Popcorn’ for the first time and it was in school for an assembly, the background music as we were getting seated. Such unique sounds. Perrey and Kingsley’s ‘‘Disneyland’s Main Street Electrical Parade’ originally known as ‘Baroque Hoedown’ from the duo’s second album ‘Kaleidoscopic Vibrations’ is another example of the brilliant music that Kingsley helped create.
