Baby Sex

Baby [...] is The Title of an unreleased recording by The Residents. The title is lifted from the cover, an image of a woman performing oral [...] on an infant boy - an image which was lifted from a pornographic magazine from Denmark.

While The Residents are known to be incredibly embarrassed by their early works (and strive to keep them unreleased in their original form) they May Be reasonably proud of Baby [...], as several tracks from this have appeared on compilations. It was also broadcast in its entirety on a radio station in Oregon during a Residents Radio Festival in 1977.

The second half of the album is a studio collage which includes portions of The Residents' impromptu live performance at San Francisco's Boarding House in October 1971. Assisted by Snakefinger and N. Senada they staged a "[...] attack" on the club, performing for thirty minutes. The album also features a cover of Frank Zappa's "King Kong".
