The best thing that ever came out
of Florida, the Pink Lincolns have been around, off-again-on-again, in one form
or another, since the early 1980s. The core seems to be their amazing vocalist
Chris Barrows and all around musician Dorsey Martin, who has been at one time
or another the Pink Lincolns guitarist, drummer or bassist. They have done several
albums of their brand of snotty punk rock, most on Stiff Pole Records, all of
which are highly recommended.
Releases:
This little one sided, without
a cover, two song single was given away free to help promote the "Headache"
album. Two of the highlights from their album, this record, only 300 of which
were pressed, is one of the hardest to find of all the Pink Lincoln's considerable

Their classic first album,
with their patented snot faced punk rock sound, our version is a re-release
for the German market, but with a different cover. Unfortunately, the pressing
plant screwed up and pressed the record with the labels slated for the "Headache"
album, even though they had the correct labels for this album. A sticker was
added to the label explaining the mix up. Only 300 of this record were ever
pressed by MT, all on pink vinyl, making it the hardest to find of the three
different versions of this album (a third pressing, both as a CD and LP, with
yet another cover, was released later by Stiff Pole Records).
