Customer Reviews of 13th Anniversary Show - Live in Japan
WEIRDER THAN MOST This is a live album although with The Residents, one cannot tell! Between-song banter there's aplenty, but audience reaction is not obvious. Standout tracks include the magnificent Jailhouse Rock and the quirky This Is A Man's World with its cartoon character voices. I wonder what James Brown thinks of it? Their quasi-orchestral arrangements are much n evidence, along with those strangled synth sounds. Things get really strange on tracks like Coming Of The Crow and Cry For The Fire, while elsewhere there are some jazzy edges. The Residents made some of the weirdest music ever but the problem is, sometimes it all sounds the same. I wouldn't recommend his album to those who want to discover this band's distinctive sonic experiments. Rather get an album that contains tracks like the studio version of Semolina, Blue Rosebuds and The Spot (with Snakefinger).
All Alone, Has No Hone...
After the Mole Show debacle, The Residents (temporarily) changed for the worse. The Big Bubble (their worst recording of all time) and the 13th Anniversary Tour were the results of the "band" regrouping. Anyone familiar enough with The Residents phases and sounds can easily figure that a number of the original foursome flew the coop after the Mole Show. The lone survivor took it one the road. Flat, bland, and one dimensional, this recording shows the remaining Resident (now known as Mr. Skull) trying to regroup. Fortunately, with the discovery of new sounds, styles, MIDI, and the like, the "group" got it back together. But "The 13th Anniversary Show" demonstrates that art indeed imitates life. As in the early Residents tune "The Sandman", here our front man is "All Alone, Has No Hone To Edge His Knify Bone."
Great Album
This is one of my favorite albums by the Residents, ESD breaks up the tracks by song, rathar than how they are performed, which is by suite. for instance, The Ship's 'A' Goin' Down, The New Machine, and Torniquet of Roses all go into each other. The audience doesn't clap after each song, but they do after each suite. All the songs here are great, especially the version of "Walter Westinghouse" Some others you might dig: "Picnic in The Jungle," "Monkey & Bunny," and the suite of Commercial Album songs.
