The Residents Radio Special


The Residents Radio Special is a promotional cassette created by Ralph Records in 1977 to promote The Residents' catalogue of 7" singles, Santa Dog, "Satisfaction," The Beatles Play the Residents and the Residents Play the Beatles, and Babyfingers.
This cassette was a promotional item issued to radio stations shortly after the release of Fingerprince. It was soon offered through the mail-order service in limited quantities on cassette. The promotional item was repackaged and sold through the Ralph Records mail-order catalogue in 1983. A limited edition CD, entitled Eat Exuding Oinks!, was released in 2001, featuring the original radio show and the digitally remastered versions of the songs.
