Residents, The · 1978 · Vinyl-7" · US · RR1177

Second and correct pressing with improved sound-quality on side B: • Re1 added to side B matrix number (RR1177B-Re1). • Labels printed on warm/orangish red paper. • Small 0.75" pressing ring with beveled contours at 1 7/8" and 2 1/8" (41 and 53mm). (Compare the mostly-withdrawn [url=https://www.discogs.com/release/2910195]first pressing[/url].) Runouts are etched except for the Sonic Arts ⊏◯⊐ logo which is stamped. Fold-over sleeve with the disk in an inside pocket. Some copies have a large "Duck Stab!" sticker on the front sleeve. (The sticker gets its own Ralph catalog number, "...STK/A".) However, the official title of the release is "Duck Stab", without the exclamation mark, as it can be seen on top back sleeve and on both labels of the disc. There are two variations of this second pressing: with matte labels (2,500 copies) or with glossy red labels (25,000 copies). Both these variations can be treated as "the same". Also sold as a combo pack with poster and T-shirt (750 copies). All songs Pale Pachyderm Publishing (BMI) All songs Copyright 1977, The Cryptic Corp.
