First learned about Kinky when I was compiling a "midwest country" show for my radio show last year and heard "Rapid City, South Dakota". Fell in love with Kinky's songbook after listening to this song (aka the "first pro-choice" country song ever written). RIP Kinky, your wit and music is greatly missed.

Checking in from West Rapid. The weather is horrendous. Have a great day.

Wish I could find this full album online.
I have tickets to see Kinky in Dallas May 20th! Can't wait!!!
One of my favorite songs. I regret that I'm nearly deaf and it doesn't sound the same but I remember...
It's a work of loving art, Al.
Probably Know the Dwight Yocum version Better.
Rest well, Kinkster. This song is more relevant than ever. Your irreverent humor and smart-ass insights were appreciated more than you'd ever believe.
They ain't making Jews like Kinky anymore...😢
