Notes

This is the first pressing by Shape Optimedia, Inc. on East Side Digital label with catalog number "rESiDe 2" on both spines. Later pressings (Eskimo by Disque Americ) have catalog number "ESD 80022" on both spines and a slightly different back cover with new ESD logo.

"The Residents' Eskimo recorded between April 1976 and May 1979. It is respectfully dedicated to N. Senada who started the whole thing."

"The Replacement is part of a concept called for four bands to contribute one-fourth of an album each based loosely on "San Francisco". Previously released on Subterranean Modern."
