Info

The Warner Bros. One of the group's earliest known recordings, The Warner Bros. Album was compiled as a demo reel to showcase their talents, and was sent anonymously to Hal Halverstadt, the executive who signed Captain Beefheart and his Magic Band to Warner Bros. Album released as The W B Album is a demo tape, compiled in 1971 by the group who would later be known as The Residents. Album was compiled in order to showcase the talents of the then unnamed group to Hal Halverstadt, the record executive who signed Captain Beefheart to Warner Bros. Halverstadt rejected the tape, but in doing so, inadvertently inspired the group's name by returning the tape addressed to Residents, 167 17th Avenue, San Mateo. Listen free to The Residents The W B Album Strawberry Fields Forever, Mad Sawmill of Copenhagen Germany and more. 29 tracks 38:37.

If there was ever any doubt, just announced today via Cherry Red and The Residents: "Meanwhile, next up in the pREServed series, we’re delighted to confirm, will be two highly anticipated sets. Firstly, a 2CD 1971-1972 thing, which will include ‘The W***** B*** Album’, ‘B.S.’, three live recordings made during that period and some other related bits and pieces. You’re probably aware that ‘The W***** B*** Album’ and ‘B.S.’ were released as Record Store Day only titles over the last couple of years, but this is the first time on CD for both. Something of a bumper 2-fer about that one!"And a pREServed, 2CD edition of "Not Available" is coming out around the same time, too...

If anybody has a sealed or unplayed copy they're not interested in keeping, I have an extra copy of Steroids Crouching Tiger Hidden Gabber by Death Grips or B.S. by The Residents from RSD 2019 I'm looking to trade away :)No intention of selling them, only interested in trading. Will consider trading for something else if you're interested but this is what I'm really after.DM me!

I saw THREE new copies of this for sale in a record store last week (8/11/2018). So, copies still exist at a sensible price. All you have to do is get down to Leuven.

I purchased my copy in a local record shop (doubt if it was in Ostend or Ghent) during RSD week at the "normal" list price of about 25euro. But indeed, RSD is being exploited by so-called "music-lovers" buying all limited editions and then re-selling them as "very-very-limited" (of course, as they bought all of them) at ridiculous prices. My advice: send them a discogs mail with your kind opinion. This has nothing to do with "happy collecting", it's just a race for quick money... shame on them!

I find it incredibly amusing the lengths people will go to cash in on something with a high overhead, especially with a band like The Residents. While incredibly fanatical, we're certainly not stupid enough to take the bait and actually oblige the people reselling this at such an absurd price. A word of advice: this is a RSD 'First' release, there are more copies of this to come, and most likely with everything that this initial run came with (reproduced art, insert); you are NOT going to get anything more than $40 out of this.

RSD is a day for flippers. It's been that way for years. It's not going to get better. If you want an RSD release your choices are stand in line and hope, get a part time job at a record store, or pay flipper prices. The bands, record labels, and shops are not to blame. If I released Warner Bros on vinyl I would have pressed even less copies and it would have taken me a long time to sell them all. This one blew up because it was an RSD release and it was on some "RSD must have" lists that flippers and nerds read.

In that case, I stand corrected. This whole situation is just a horrendous way to ensure fans won't find a copy at a fair price.

They're actually selling regularly on ebay for $65 - $120 and Cherry Red said it was in fact an RSD exclusive and is not being repressed.

Personally, I'm trying to find a second copy myself for a friend, although the scarcity of this particular run is practically all artificial. It's probably the whole "Buy or Die" approach of old, but it only serves to prolong the problem fans and regular record buyers are having with flippers.

A number of copies sold here a couple of days ago for over $100. The same day, a few of us were lucky enough to score copies for under $30, from ethical sellers. There are always a fanatical few who will pay extortionate prices. Only foolish and/or excessively avaricious sellers believe such buyers are unlimited.

Beautiful remaster, but my copy has a visible and audible flaw on A11 "In the still of the night" that causes a scratchy pop across five rotations. No way was this missed in the test-pressing, it's prominent but anyone else get that, or is this my singularly uglified one-of-a-kind!

Golden Lama
Yeah sure, but bad masters definitely weren't the case for what I'm describing. I gave up on Pirates after problems with CD, LP lacquers, test pressings, and printed packaging on four different projects. They redid their mistakes at no cost (other than time, stress, landfill) and admitted to me on the lacquers that experimental music wasn't their forte. Aaanyway... I'm not unclear about the nature of vinyl, but if GZ's material flaws affect more than a few copies on a release as special as this one, it'll be a shame. Scott Colburn is working wonders on these pREServed editions.

Ximathewi
Never had a problem with Pirates / GZ. To my eyes and ears they make the best looking and sounding vinyl and I've used several companies. Most bad vinyl is because of bands not properly mastering the music and not checking test pressings. Every pressing is going to have a flaw here and there. Nobody is checking every copy that comes out of the machines. I've been disappointed with every pressing place I've worked with except Pirates and will continue to use them until that changes. Just saying.

Ahoy! Well then... looks like GZ media is still up to their shoddy ways. We gave up on em (via Pirate Press) to go with GottaGroove. Never looked back, wait'll you hear the new Christian Ronn & Ikue Mori LP coming this year. Test pressings just approved yesterday! Something else is already headed to your USPS box, similarly flawfree. Hope you enjoy!

This is the best LP ever made. I wonder if QRP made it at 45 RPM Mastered by Kevin Gray. what would it sound like. Would there be more detail. I heard someone stole the original tapes of this recording. Were they given back to Homer and Hardy.

I'm listening to it now. What's wrong with it. The content or the pressing. You can't be vague with a album like this. The mastering is fantastic. It is has clicks and pops on a raw listen. I don't know much about GZ Media. Maybe some can cut in here and explain this. The bootleg tape will never sound good again. I can't figure out where the stars are to review anything. Where is it ?

...it's a bummer to see eBay flippers gauging folks SO HARD on this one. Fortunately, it seems like Homer and Company don't like to let anything with the potential to sell stay out of print for too long: A lot of those once-scarce mail-order-only limited editions have turned up on Klangalerie or as official releases elsewhere. So I imagine there will probably be another pressing or at least a CD edition of this any day now.
