Duck Stab!/Buster and Glen is an album released in 1978 by The Residents. The Duck Stab! portion was a seven-song EP released earlier in 1978 featuring shorter songs similar to the first side of Fingerprince. Buster and Glen was meant to be a follow-up EP, but instead was included on LP with a re-mixed version of the former release.

Due to the shorter length of the songs, the album was more accessible for fans who had recently heard "Satisfaction", and songs like "Constantinople" and "Hello Skinny" helped cement the band's cult following. This album also features some of the best guitar work that Philip "Snakefinger" Lithman did with the group.

These albums also feature three songs that the band Primus covered: "Hello Skinny" and "Constantinople" (on the re-release of Frizzle Fry) and "Sinister Exaggerator" (on Miscellaneous Debris).
