The Residents turn songs by country music legend Hank Williams and The March King John Philip Sousa into Residents songs, meaning that they're played mainly on synthesizers and sung by someone who sounds like he's probably committed a murder or two. Just as disturbing and excellent as it sounds. Their churning, elusive, ghostly take on Williams' "Jambalaya" is particularly mesmerizing.
Track listing:
1. Hey Good Lookin'
2. Six More Miles (To the Graveyard)
3. Kawa-Liga
4. Ramblin' Man
5. Jambalaya
6. Sousapart
7. Kawa-Liga (Praire Mix) (bonus)

ReplyDeleteNo file, ad click-bait.
ReplyDeleteThe link works, just checked it. Often with Zippyshare, the first time you click 'download' brings up some bullshit pop up window, which you can then close and click the same download button to get the file.
DeleteSuper!
