  Tentative Review by The Christopher Currie: The Residents - Fingerprince
Fingerprince is either the third, fourth or fifth album by this super-ocular quartet (the recording dates for
Fingerprince, the group seemed to be experiencing the consequences of partial maturity within the music industry.
Fingerprince is generally not regarded as the best Residents album, but it certainly ranks among their best.

 Fingerprince: Reviews, Discography, Audio Clips, and more ||| Music.com
This transitional album for the group may not be one of their best, but makes up for it in historical importance.
Fingerprince is one side of songs, a melding of their earlier, primitive side (their old piano, heard so well on Meet the Residents, is still in service here) with their sinister pop side that would be perfected on Duck Stab and The Commercial Album (including their treated, cheap-sounding drum machines).
Side two is a ballet cycle, entitled "Six Things to a Cycle," an attempt at faux-ethno-primitivism (heavily rhythmic, repetitious) that would prefigure their work in Eskimo and Mark of the Mole.

Fingerprince started out as Tourniquet of Roses, which was to be the world's first three-sided album.
In the end, the band put only two-thirds of the music on the album and put the rest on an EP called Babyfingers which was then several years later once again merged into Fingerprince.
Fingerprince and Babyfingers have similar structures: each has one side of short songs with a single longer work on the second side.

It's not that we are against fingerprince *as a being* Helena.
I will comment on what we have seen here though, and that is that fingerprince has a penchant for quickly latching onto any female who so much as looks his way, and it's very very creepy.
Fingerprince, sounds like a a couple of weeks of processing, meditations and a techniques from the "Receiving" tape are in order.

 THE RESIDENTS - Reviews   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-01)
Fingerprince features the first and third sides, in a total of 9 tracks.
The mood is far gloomier and scarier, and in my opinion, this EP is more enjoyable than side one of Fingerprince.
Some people say that this album is enjoyed better when put in the middle of Fingerprince - as it was originally intended - but...

Nevertheless, the New Wave music press, which had been so lavish in its praise of the albums from Fingerprince to Eskimo, decided that the recording was not at all interesting.
The stories are progressively more complex and dig deeper into the fictional Eskimo culture, starting with a simple Walrus Hunt and ending with a confrontation with the spirit world and a Festival of Death celebrating the end of the six-month night.
True, the title "Fingerprince" is still on the cover in attempt to prevent confusion, but this is the real thing, folks.

 XTC Forum - Fingerprince's corner
Fingerprince doesn't seem brilliant to me. I get the impression he/she is mocking the forum and it's members.
The posts that have been made so far don't seem to have anything to say and I would not describe them as humourous, more the meanderings of someone who doesn't have any respect for anyone else's tastes or how they choose to spend thier free time.
BMWS, I appreciate that  your opinion is your own and I don't intend to say you are wrong, I would just like you to explain why you think Fingerprince is brilliant.

 Aphids in the Hall   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-01)
Somehow it reminds me of their eighties work, very stripped down, and I think the vocals are a little Residential.
"You're A Martian" is an old style crooner, with surreal lyrics, and the short and nasty "Home" sounds like something that could have been on "Fingerprince".
We've heard very little from Schwump over the years, but bizarrely, in 1999 he returned with a neat little album called "Kick In The Butt".

Syung Myung Me: This was intended to be the first 3-sided LP, but while the Residents were busy figuring out how the logistics of this would work, [Monty Python]?
Fingerprince has the ballet "Six Things To A Cycle" (which is very, very good, actually, and sketches out the rise and fall of a civilization), while Babyfingers has the long pop-song-format "Walter Westinghouse", a cryptic song about a husband and wife falling out.

 Lazaris wears no turban - CosmicFool Discussions
An intellegent, non-manipulative exchange of ideas about Lazaris is a healthy thing fingerprince -- that is if you have the social backbone and internally sourced self-esteem to enguage in one.
An intellegent, non-manipulative exchange of ideas about Lazaris is a healthy thing fingerprince -- that is if you have the social backbone and strength of self-esteem to enguage in one.
To me, fingerprince appears to be following in the footsteps of a classic, pop psych., Werner Erhard-popularized authoritative stance -- however heartfelt and sincere -- to protect personal views and opinions about Jach's "Lazaris" act that, if put into open human conversation may quickly crack.

 MusicDish Industry e-Journal
Originally released in 1976 (well, 2/3 of it anyway), Fingerprince, then named Tourniquet of Roses, was an ambitious little bugger.
So the 3rd side, Fingerprince, was put out in 1979.
Perhaps the most significant element to Fingerprince is the lengthy ballet, 'Six Things to a Cycle', originally intended for performance at the Museum of Modern Art in San Francisco.

But for first time listeners, I have to recommend "Fingerprince" as the most representative of the Residents music and styles.
I hate to inform the other reviewer that he is completely wrong.
Fingerprince was original Tourniquet of Roses, but sense they could not fit all the material onto 1 record, they released Fingerprince (LP) and Babyfingers (EP).

 Biography of the Fingerprintz
Actually his singing on the session version of Fingerprince is rather better than Jimmes on the album version!
Released first in an almost-all-fl blurred-photo sleeve with badly matched shades of grey at the edges, so re-released almost immediately with an extra white border on the sleeve which covers up the poor composition of the first sleeve.
Fingerprince is an atmospheric description of a cat burglar at work.

 TrouserPress.com :: Fingerprintz
The primitively recorded first album occupies a dark, throbbing zone of bobbing pop and wry-to-bizarre lyrics ("Punchy Judy," "Beam Me Up Scotty").
Leader/guitarist Jimme O'Neill's Scottish accent and offbeat songwriting combine to chilling effect on the crime-obsessed narratives "Fingerprince" and "Wet Job"; the former's music also suggests a valid response to reggae/dub influence.
The considerably slicker Distinguishing Marks, in contrast, is pure pop in extremis — musically, anyway.

 Gnosis Ratings
The Residents albums that follow are equally inventive, utterly unique albums maybe only lacking the novelty value of the debut album.
Albums like Duck Stab, Not Available, Mark of the Mole, Whatever Happened to Vileness Fats and Fingerprince abound with unconventional, surprising pop/avant-garde miniatures.
The Commercial Album is an interesting experiment with 40 tracks all lasting one minute.

Note: Despite the album being self-titled, it has the same cover as "The Very Dab" LP.
At some point during the tour, they were recorded for Radio 1's "In Concert" series, which was broadcast on a saturday night at 6:30pm for an hour giving about 30 minutes to each band.
An interesting point about Step Lang's lyrics for the song Fingerprince...they were rather different from what was on the album, and I can still remember a couple of lines...."lift up her dress, cling onto her breasts, Fingerprince.......you're making a mess, all over her dress, Fingerprince.....".

They play wild, uncompromising and loud avantgarde music which sprouts in many directions.
Echoes of an early Beefheart with John French speeding up the beat a little bit can be traced, but so may also the early and primitive frenesy of the Residents (such as Fingerprince) and their RIO colleagues Henry Cow.
This french group, at this occasion a trio, plays at their instruments consisting of a six string fender bass, a good drum kit and a saxophone.
