In celebration of that remarkable and unlikely anniversary, we present an expanded vinyl edition of the classic 1980 LP ‘Commercial Album’.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003eFollowing almost a decade spent attempting to redefine what pop music could be, but with zero hit singles to show for it, The Residents finally caved and produced their own pop music album as the 80s dawned. But rather than have each song repeat the same minute of music three times as per the traditional pop format, The Residents produced no less than 40 one-minute pop masterpieces, and invited the listener to do the repeating bit themselves if they felt the need.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe resulting ‘Commercial Album’ both showcased the incredible depth of the group’s musical palette and proved definitively that they could easily be as big as \u003cstrong\u003eThe Beatles \u003c\/strong\u003eif they wanted to.
