"Happy 14½" is an EP by avant-garde band King Missile. It was released in 1992, shortly before the band's album "Happy Hour." The EP was intended for promotional use only, and not supposed to be sold; nonetheless, copies are sometimes available in "used" sections of record stores because some people who received the EP sold it anyway.cite web
