THE KING & EYE

The King & Eye features the music of Elvis Presley. The album involves the telling of the story of "The Baby King" to two children.

The Residents used an unusual approach when recording this album: they contracted studio space at Different Fur Studios in San Francisco for a couple of weeks, rather than use their own facilities, to see how such an environment would affect their work. The album's packaging was also handled differently: while Pore Know Graphics, the band's own in-house design group, did the actual cover art, the group hired Rex Ray to do the packaging.
