    thanks for speaking at such length about these guys on your two videos about them. Not Available is probably my fav of any decade of their work

    you should check out their first two demo tapes called The Warner Bros Album and B.S., they have a very chaotic feeling to them and are very interesting to listen to

    Eskimo is really a fantastic piece of Art. After many years, once I got older I realized that it's a unique, Great, Perfect piece of Art. I just close my eyes and I am there. It is like teletransportación of the spirit, at least for me. It is magical.
    And Not Available is maybe the one with whom I feel more empathy. But it is music. Eskimo is not music, it's a sort of time machine or a teletransportación device,. I would not know which one put first
    Meet The Residents is Great !
    All their music aknowledge the existence of Spirit and plays with one spirit pulling and pushing and tickling it.

    I still can’t believe 1 group made all this genius music in 6 or 7 years. Superhuman explosion of creativity.

    Chris Cutler does the percussion on Eskimo. He is well talented. Check out the Art Bears if you've not done.

    Nice reviews yaaaaaay. Can't wait to see what sense you make of subsequent increasingly messy decades. As someone else referenced would love to have heard what you think of WS/B.S. aka Nickel if your Dicks this Big - for they are absolutely the epicentre of taste and beauty. But just can't wait til the eighties one.
    Ps Fingerprince rules.

    The Beatles from The Abyss
    In this universe, John Kennedy was an amazing president resident, and also... WW2 Third Reich N Roll baybee??

    This is going to get complicated when we get into the 2000's and 2010's. :-) Looking forward to that.
    I'd go:
    6. Duck Stab
    5. Meet the Residents
    4. Eskimo
    3. Third Reich
    2. Fingerprince
    1. Not Available

    The Residents were mysterious for a long tine, but re the ID crisis we're "hardly foxed" now.
    Over time I've become more impatient with musical Where's Wally puzzles - so I certainly don't rate 3RnR higher than Meet The Residents.
    29 min mark: And now in many African countries they have myths about the two monsters that come down from the sky and steal children - be afraid, kids, be very afraid, of Madonna and Elton.
    30 min mark: Now I have to wonder, is he familiar with Bjork when she was in Kukl?

    6. Duck Stab
    5. Meet The Residents
    4. Third Reich
    3 Eskimo
    2 Fingerprince
    1 Not Available
    Love and respect their Anonymity but I do know Eric Drew Feldman has a strong connection with Residents and Snakefinger
    Zappa connection
    Residents Uninc did a version of King Kong

    • @jessem470
      @jessem470 Год назад +2

      Snamkefinger played guitar on King Kong and it is as good anything on Uncle Meat
      Sound like MOI and maybe Lick My Decals instrumentals

  • @robertschobesberger6300
    @robertschobesberger6300 Год назад +4

    duck stab / buster & glen way too low, but the other rankings are spot on...
