Duck Stab/Buster & Glen
|
The Residents' Duck Stab/Buster and Glen was another stop-gap effort released due to delays with the Eskimo album. Duck Stab! itself was a seven-song EP released earlier in 1978 featuring shorter songs similar to the first side of Fingerprince. Buster and Glen was meant to be a follow-up EP, but instead was included on LP with a re-mixed version of the former release.
Due to the shorter length of the songs, the album was more accessible for fans who had recently heard "Satisfaction", and songs like "Constantinople" and "Hello Skinny" helped cement the band's cult following. This album also features some of the best guitar work that Philip "Snakefinger" Lithman did with the group.
