LS1 - Sketches For A Live Show is a collection of eight mostly instrumental studio demos recorded by The Residents in 1982 for their planned (and later aborted) 10th Anniversary tour. The tracks were first released serially as free MP3s through Cherry Red Records' Residents mailing list newsletter from July 21st 2022 to March 10th 2023; all eight tracks were later compiled as a mini-album and released to streaming services in July 2023.[1]
The first two demos, "Give It To Someone Else" and "Birthday Boy" were included with the newsletter dated July 21st 2022; these were followed by "Ship's A Goin' Down" and "Constantinople", included in the following issue dated August 23rd.
Another two parts, part 5, "Red Rider" (mislabelled as "Die in Terror") and part 7, "The Talk of Creatures", were released in the November issue of the newsletter. The (apparently) final two parts of LS1, "Walter Westinghouse" and "Festival of Diskomo", the only tracks with vocals, were released in the March 2023 issue of the newsletter.

They don't understand what any of it means - they only know three or four people and haven't been online since the dial-up days - but they do REALLY love big numbers. Maybe it was the recently uploaded 'LS1 - Sketches For A Live Show' mini-album that attracted all of those new devotees... if they'd have known that, they'd have released it years ago…" Post to The Residents official Facebook page, September 5th 2023
