Notes
First pressing with "444 Grove Street" adress on back sleeve, bottom left. It has also the "10th Anniversary" logo on the bottom right, and the mention "Special special thanks to E-Mu Systems for the fabulous Emulator" just under.The sleeve was re-printed in 1983 with new adress, Cryptic logo, but no mention of thanks to E-Mu System: The Tunes Of Two Cities. However the disc is the same with same matrix numbers.
Sleeve notes:
"The Tunes Of Two Cities" is the second part of The Residents' Mole Trilogy which began with "Mark Of The Mole" in 1981. While the first LP is an elaborately told story of political and social struggle, "Two Cities" is a documentaion of the music of these two different cultures as they were before fate threw them into turmoil.
The tracks on this record alternate between societies. First one culture...then the other...making its point, not just by what is said...but by the listener's willingness to understand the globe wrenching power of "DIFFERENCE".
