Notes

Edition of 2700 copies in heavy cardboard picture sleeve. This was given away to Ralph Records mail order customers for Christmas 1978.

Side B is the same recording as the track "Fire" on Santa Dog but is mastered at 40 RPM instead of 45 RPM which makes the playback a little faster.

    I bought Third Reich N Roll in 1978 and returned the questionaire that was contained within.
    That christmas I received the Santa Dog 7". I also started receiving all the Buy Or Die catalogues, for at least a year anyway, maybe longer, I can't , it's so long ago.
    Still have the record... and it's still in the original mailer. (Belated) thanks Residents!

      Yet another Santa Dog release was planned for Christmas of 1984. A newer version of the song Fire, to be called Santa Dog '84, along with a release of Santa Dog '78 on the B-side, undoubtely to be remastered at some strange speed. The Residents began the recording, but the project was never completed. Twenty numbered, hand-screened Santa Dog '84 pictures sleeves (by Sci.Fi. artist Rex Ray) are all that were produced; however, these sleeves were not approved by either the Residents or the Cryptic Corporation
