Expanded edition of The Residents' The Way We Were album with a bonus disc of show rehearsals from their Australian tour in 2004

The Residents are an American art collective best known for their over 60 studio albums that were recorded over a period of over forty years. They also created some outstanding multimedia works, mainly three CD ROM projects and ten DVDs. Working as an anonymous collective, their identitites were kept secret until in 2017 Hardy Fox revealed himself as their primary composer. Hardy died in October 2018, but the group continue to record and perform. The Way We Were was a short retrospective tour by The Residents, consisting of five performances in three cities at the What Is Music? Festival in Australia. This short touring performance began March 4th and ended March 12th 2005. The group's first Australian tour since The 13th Anniversary Show in 1986, The Way We Were featured a somewhat chronological look back at the group's career, and was structured as a spiritual sequel to their 1986 tour (this time featuring newer material and observing the group's 33rd Anniversary). It was announced on The Residents' website November 24th, 2004. Shortly after the tour ended, The Residents released a CD and DVD set, Klanggalerie are now proud to present you an expanded version of the album with an 80 minute bonus disc of rehearsals for the show. These versions often differ from the ones performed and also includes Guylum Bardot which didn't make it into the final show.
