Double vinyl LP pressing. Formed in the early 1970s, The Residents have now been charting a unique path through the musical landscape for 50 years. In celebration of that remarkable anniversary, we present an expanded vinyl re-issue of the classic 1976 album 'The Third Reich 'N Roll'. Alongside the legendary album and a seminal live recording, this new edition includes 'Groovy Greats RDX', a new, alternative redux mix produced by The Residents using the 'Third Reich 'N Roll' multi-track tapes. Featuring new interpretations and material not included in the final original mix, 'Groovy Greats' both celebrates and denigrates the original record, just as that album did to the many garage pop nuggets it interpreted. Produced with the involvement of The Cryptic Corporation, remastered by Scott Colburn and complete with insightful new sleevenotes, this package builds upon The Residents' ongoing pREServed re-issue project, which will continue into 2023 and beyond.

The Residents released of their third album, ""The Third Reich 'n' Roll"" in 1976. People have speculated whether the Residents were hinting that Rock 'n' Roll has brain-washed the youth of the world. When confronted with this possibility, they replied, ""Well, it may be true or it may not, but we just wanted to kick out the jams and get it on."" the ""Third Reich 'n' Roll"" consists of two suites, ""Swastikas on Parade"" and ""Hitler was a Vegetarian."" Both are semi-phonetic interpretations of top forty hits from the sixties. ""Our roots"", say the Residents, a bright orange carrot clutched lovingly in their hands. Remastered for vinyl!
