Notes
First pressing with cover art wraparound sheet glued over gray/brown thick cardboard sleeve. Limited edition of 1800 copies.
Manufactured by Ralph Records, it was however designed to look like a bootleg for some marketing reasons. There are no title, label name, catalog number or credits printed on the sleeve. Only a paper sheet is included listed all persons involved at the show.
Tracklist and durations are not listed on the release.
Title appears as "The Residents' Mole Show - Live At The Roxy - October 30, 1982" on A-side label, and "The Residents Mole Show" on the insert.
Runout etchings on vinyl only give the title of the album (Mole Show), a catalog number and the side (A/B).
The front cover image was taken from the European Mole Show program; the back sleeve image is a picture of a piece of the burlap screen which was used in all of the concerts.
This album is a condensation of the two concerts given by The Residents at the Roxy Theatre in Los Angeles in October 30, 1982 (early and late shows).
