THE RESIDENTS - WARNING: UNINC. - LIVE AND EXPERIMENTAL RECORDINGS 1971-1972

  • the residents: warning: uninc. - live and experimental recordings 1971-1972
        (2022, 2lp, europe, new ralph too)
The last couple of years, we've seen quite a focus on The Residents' earlier years.
There was the "The W*** B*** Album" RSD release in 2018, followed by the "B*** S***" Album in 2019. Later the same year, the 3 CD set "A Nickle If Your Dick's This Big" presented both RSD album with some bonus material.
And now there is "Warning: Uninc", referring to the fact that the band's name was "The Residents Uninc." before they dropped the "Uninc.".

I ordered my copy (from a record shop in Ireland) yesterday, but much to my surprise and enjoyment, I received a vinyl rip of the album earlier today.
Parts of this 2 LP set could already be found as bonus material on the "A Nickle" set, and the Residents Wiki tells me that excerpts of '1-10 (With A Touch Of 11)' could already be found on the Preserved edition of "Meet The Residents", but it's just great to hear it all together.
Fun fact: the liner notes mention that '1-10 (With A Touch Of 11)' was inspired by Sun Ra.

Amazing ! Hard to imagine that this got recorded 50 years ago.
Can't wait for the actual album to arrive !
