I've been riding him like a bitch since I bought him for a
handful of cigarettes on Friday.

Everyone should get a turn.

well, maybe something personal..maybe a nice article you
might have read..maybe something related to new york's 80's
avantgarde artists. as far as i know arthur had quiet a few
friends among them..anything basically :)

man, i don't have any time at all these days..i feel
terrible..and now i've got this to finish...i could just
translate the wire article and hope no one notices it :)
i really feel bad about it as i should take much more time
for this sort of things..i get to write about all these
brilliant artists and i do it in a hurry and surely forget
about lots of interesting facts and such..i always say this
but still always ebd up doing it the last possible minute..

came up with the title already! it says-> ARTHUR RUSSELL

i've been doing a bit of reading and it seems i missing the
larger part of his work (i'd say about 95%), which sucks a
bit. i'll have to pull it off with what i have i guess.

get..except for ones that were relased after his death.

i finished the essay..it's shit and i feel bad about it :(
everyone interested can listen to it on saturday from 10-12
pm CET. at least the music will be nice :)

someone from xlt/slsk .nu room recommended this guy to me a
couple of weeks ago, then i found "world of echo" on my hdd,
so i must've downloaded it right after the recommendation.
finally a few days ago i found some time to listen to the
album - and now i'm discovering album after album, it's a
whole sound world of different ideas. amazing. great artist,
too bad he's gone.

thanks, someone

I love Arthur Russell! He has been keeping me warm
during the winter months. World of Echo is amazing and his
disco stuff with Loose Joints is brilliant as well.

Yeah, world of Echo is top dollar.

Check out this disco tune he produced. Bit af a Loft classic
apparently. Certainly floats my boat.

The Arthur Russell documentary "WILD COMBINATION " seems to
have been completed and is screening this autumn around the
world. Check the official site for details and
trailer.

It looks pretty good!

thanks again. after listening to the light and kind of
country music style "love is overtaking me" i needed to go
back (after a long while) to the simple awesomness of "world
of echo" - the fuzzed and echoed cello in the background is
killing. i could do with an instrumental version of the
album.

certainly a must-buy in near future

'love is overtaking me' is one of my favorites so far this
year.

i want more music by him and i really hope it keeps coming
albums of unreleased material.
