Following the creative success of Dodgin' The Draft, The Caucasian Boys continued to record. However, their sessions were more sporadic, and equipment was not always available or used properly. Greased Tits was a compilation album of songs recorded between 1989 and 1991. Unfortunately, the album's title has no hidden meaning. It's merely a mispronounciation of "Greatest Hits." "I Can't Explain" was one of the band's favorite cover songs at this time. The version on GT is an alternate take of the song that appeared on Dodgin' The Draft. "Sonata In G For A Wet Blonde" was an acoustic instrumental recorded in Reid's apartment behind the bowling alley in 1989. The trio had spent the day making an informed decision on who their choice for Playmate of the Year 1989 was going to be, and performed an original song eventually named in her honor. "Running To Stand Still (Live In A Toilet Version)" was the first version of this song recorded. The band would go on to put it on several other albums, but it is clear this is an early version because no one actually nows the song. This was recorded in the Men's Restroom of the Carthahge Twin Cinema while Reid was employed as manager. The session was notable for very little, save the first recording of this song and the fact that Teel McDaniel (now Hooper) came in and used the bathroom while the band was recording. The other songs were all recorded at Todd Schweikhardt's house on Success street in Carthage. The album features Schweikhardt, as well as Darren "Mohammed D" McDonald on keyboards.
