About This Item
Double vinyl LP pressing. To celebrate their 50th Anniversary, The Residents undertook a secret, one-off performance in their hometown of San Francisco. Joined on stage by a hand-picked cast of guest artists, the group and their friends performed a dream setlist of classics from the band's back catalogue, including songs never performed live before. Featuring guest vocalists, a girls' chorus, spoken word pieces, a solo piano recital, orchestral and choral arrangements, rock freakouts, mariachi interludes and, of course, The Residents themselves, we present a recording of a show that will live long in the memories of all who were there. Showcasing the classics 'Santa Dog', 'Constantinople, 'Hello Skinny' and an incredible selection of material spanning the group's five decades, this is The Residents as we've never head them before, and never will again.
