Vinyl reissue of The Residents' classic debut originally released on Ralph Records in 1974. The whole, bizarre Residents trip started here (at least officially)! Mixing everything from Frank Zappa and Captain Beefheart to Raymond Scott and Sun Ra.
The Heart of Saturday Night is the second studio album by singer and songwriter Tom Waits, originally released in 1974. The title song was written as a tribute to Jack Kerouac. The album cover is based on In the Wee Small Hours by Frank Sinatra.
In 1980, Genesis P-Orridge and Peter Christopherson of Throbbing Gristle travelled to New York City to meet up at the apartment of beat writer William S. Burroughs. They started the task of compiling the experimental works which had never been heard.
This album falls somewhere between a box of curios you might find in your eccentric uncle's closet and a set of Beatnik rituals to help you lose your mind.
