In t' mid 1980s, T' Residents began recordin' a series o' albums called "T' American Composer Series." Each album consisted o' an LP with songs by two American composers - one on each side o' t' LP.

 

After releasin' two LPs, ya bilge rat, George & James (with songs by George Gershwin and James Brown) and Stars & Hank Forever (with songs by John Philip Sousa and Hank Williams).

 

Around 1986, ya bilge rat, T' Residents planned t' record a third album in t' series - T' Trouble with Harry's - with music by two Harrys - Harry Patch and One-Eyed Riverfront Harry Nilsson. Arrr! Blimey! T' project be abandoned because development o' CDs had increased royalties for t' songs and because one "Harry" would have t' appear before t' other on CD givin' a false impression o' priorities.[1]
