Repress by Rainbo Records in 1987. Similar to the original [r=8896570 but with also a different positioning of text on labels.

Also available in a limited edition /release/1782872red vinyl (1984).

"The Residents scripted "Vileness Fats" and started shooting this epic fantasy in 1972. It was intended to be the first full-length music video.
The story concerns a love triangle made up of an Indian priestess who lives forever and a schizophrenic one-armed midget.
Four years later, The Residents had shot fourteen hours of video, but had only completed about half of the script. Technological advances in video now made their black and white footage look poor, and they knew that in the five or six years it would take to complete, a video revolution would take place... so they gave up.
In 1984, twelve years after starting the project, the same technological advancement that killed the project brought it back to life. Though computer enhancement, enough footage was salvaged to construct the half-hour amazement, "Whatever Happened to VILENESS FATS?"."
