About God in Three Persons [Instrumental]

God in Three Persons is a rock opera/concept album by The Residents, released in 1988. It is about a man—arbitrarily named 'Mr. X'—who befriends two conjoined twins. The songs are all sung in a rhythmic spoken word fashion, similar to talking blues. The entire lyrical content of the album is written in trochaic octameter, a rare poetic meter most famously used in Edgar Allen Poe's poem The Raven. A central motif of the album is the organ riff from "Double Shot (Of My Baby's Love)" by 1960s frat rock band The Swingin' Medallions. A companion soundtrack album, featuring most of the instrumental backing tracks, was also released. God in Three Persons received a 5-star rating from AllMusic. more »
