VIDEO The Residents: A visual primer
Posted by Chad Radford @ChadRad on Thu, Jan 31, 2013 at 10:58 AM
While working on this week's CL cover story, "The Residents: In the eye of the beholder," I found out that more people seem to know about the Residents' mythology than the music. It's understandable considering the group's 40-year history, which has resulted in about 80 proper albums. Choosing when and were to start can be a bit daunting. This 10-song video mixtape rounds up a few my favorite Residents numbers, and serves as an easy overview of the group's many eras, but it only scratches the surface.
An Evening with the Residents at Variety Playhouse on Tuesday, February 5. $25. 8 p.m.
