About Fingerprince (Tourniquet of Roses)

Fingerprince is the fourth studio album (released as the third) by the Residents. The album was recorded between 1974–1976 and released in 1977. It was intended to be a three-sided record titled Tourniquet of Roses. Due to expense, the project was abandoned and cut down to a regular two-sided album. The third side was originally released separately in 1979 as Babyfingers. For the CD release of Fingerprince, all of the songs from Babyfingers, which were originally supposed to be part of the record, were included in their original running order. The 1995 Euro Ralph CD reissue of Fingerprince kept the original track order from the vinyl but included the complete Babyfingers as a bonus 3" CD with the album. more »
