| | The Seattle Times: Arts & Entertainment: The Red Krayola: the kolor of musik |
 | | Forty years ago, the manufacturer of Crayola crayons sent Thompson and his band mates, Steve Cunningham and Frederick Barthelme, a cease-and-desist order, insisting the Texas psychedelic rockers change the name of their group, The Red Crayola. |
 | | Though the first edition of the band broke up in the late '60s, The Red Krayola's reputation has done nothing but grow in the intervening years, thanks to its noisy experimentalism, acerbic humor and Thompson's guiding hand. |
 | | The band's most recent disc, "Introduction," was released in April, and though it presents a relatively kinder, gentler, even accessible Red Krayola, the antic spirit is alive and well. |
