Back in the mid-80's, a little 45 EP wandered its way into KGNU. It was by Floyd Pink and the O.K. Chorale. It featured low-fi country twang songs with a very dry wit. Frankly, hilarious. It was an instant hit on KGNU.

Being a 7" piece of vinyl, it was prone, like all others, to fall through the many cracks at KGNU. Years later, I went looking for it. No luck. For 10 years, I would occasionally scan the large rack of 7" vinyl to see if it resurfaced. In the 90's and 00's, I started searching the world wide interwebs, assuming that someone would have posted this little gem. Not only no luck, but nary a mention of the group's existence at all.

One day earlier this year, I was on the air for my Friday afternoon show and noticed one of the Honky Tonk DJ's getting ready for her show. I said Hi. She said Hi. Later, as I walked out of the air studio to go back into the main CD library, I saw something sitting in the middle of the floor in the hall. It was Floyd Pink staring up at me as though no time had passed. Turns out Celeste, the Honky Tonk DJ, found it in the country stacks and accidentally dropped it in the hall. My heart raced as I dropped the needle on this lost gem and introduced it to my listeners.

Here now, for your listening pleasure, is Floyd Pink and the O.K. Chorale.
