Vinyl reissue of The Residents' classic debut originally released on Ralph Records in 1974. The whole, bizarre Residents trip started here (at least officially)! Mixing everything from Frank Zappa and Captain Beefheart to Raymond Scott and Sun Ra.
Hot Rats cemented Frank Zappa as a musical force to be reckoned with. The album, recorded on a prototype 16-track recorder, sounds as fresh and sonically superior as it did when first released in 1969.
Originally released via Rhino Handmade on CD in the early 00's, this is the first official vinyl release of this complete live show from the Shiny Beast (Bat Chain Puller) tour.
