Favorite Top 10 (The Last Word, 2007)
|
This article is about the 2007 Will Rothers survey. You may be looking for a similarly named 2009 survey by Rothers. |
"Favorite Top 10" is the second instalment of the blog The Last Word, authored by Will Rothers (better known as Big Brother, the former webmaster of The Residents' official website). It was published on December 5th 2007, and updated on December 14th.
In this blog entry, Big Brother surveys seven people who have been involved with The Residents over their (then) 35 year career. A similar survey was featured in a later entry, titled "Favorite Top Ten", in February 2009.

Favorite Top 10
At the end of 2007, I invited 7 people who have a wide knowledge of The Residents 35 year career to pick their ten favorite projects. Not what they thought were the best necessarily, but what they liked the most. The full lists can be found in the Historical.
Observation:
The 7 did not agree on any project.
The project with the most votes with 6/7 was God in 3 Persons.
Followed by CUBE E (show), Not Available, and Animal Lover which got 5/7 votes.
Also scoring high: Vileness Fats (video), Icky Flix (DVD), 4/7 votes.
3/7 went to Mark of the Mole, The Commercial Album, and Bad Day on the Midway (CD-ROM)

No particular inference should be taken by this other that it's intrinsic interest.
The 7 people were:
Homer Flynn of The Cryptic Corporation
Hardy Fox of The Cryptic Corporation
Robert Schilling of Mute Records (London)
Dren McDonald of Ralph America
Paulie Kraynak of Bach is Dead
Igor of RRRoar
