Senada sent them a collection of handwritten Inuit folk tales, suggesting they incorporate them into the album. But the group shelved them, having gathered more than enough stuff themselves by that point, leaving them to gather dust.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHere and now, almost 50 years later, The Residents have revived those folk tales as part of their forthcoming 'Eskimo' live performance, blending them with familiar elements of the original 'Eskimo' album and new music to produce the soon-to-be-classic show. We present a studio recording of those new songs, alongside read-along stories, as written down by Senada almost half a century ago.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis is not a new side of 'Eskimo', but a modern interpretation of material which might, in another universe, have found its way onto the original.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eTracklist\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSIDE ONE\u003cbr\u003e1  THE BARREN WOMAN AND THE WORM\u003cbr\u003e2  THE OLD WOMAN AND THE SKULL\u003cbr\u003e3 A TALE OF TWO TUPILAQS\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003eSIDE TWO\u003cbr\u003e1  THE FOOL WHO MADE FRIENDS WITH A STONE\u003cbr\u003e2  THE SKELETON AT THE BOTTOM OF THE SEA\u003cbr\u003eBonus Track\u003cbr\u003e3  THE ARCTIC FOX\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Cherry Red","offers":[{"title":"10\" EP","offer_id":51893331165501,"sku":"10CHERRY547","price":24.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0096\/1884\/9839\/files\/residents_2611420c-eac3-4cff-8fa0-13002f70e837.webp?v=1782735359","url":"https:\/\/sisterray.co.uk\/products\/eskimo-folk-tales","provider":"Sister Ray","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
