Corky's Debt to His Father is a solo LP release by Red Krayola leader Mayo Thompson.[2] Recorded in 1970 it was released on the small independent label Texas Revolution but barely distributed at the time; some copies were made available in the 1970s via mail order. The album was out of print for a number of years, during which time one song - 'Horses' - was rerecorded by Pere Ubu; Thompson was a member of the group at the time. The album was re-released in the mid-eighties on the English label Glass. It was later reissued again, on vinyl and CD, through Drag City.
