One of the greatest artists of the 20th century. A compilation of ARTHUR RUSSELL’s masterpieces!
A deadstock compilation of Arthur Russell’s timeless masterpieces—a collection that transcends eras and endures even beyond love! From Philip Grass —from his interactions and collaborations with artists ranging from Philip Grass to Allen Ginsberg and the Modern Lovers—this collection focuses on the dance-oriented side of his NYC era, when he became immersed in disco after meeting David Mancuso and Nick Siano. It’s the absolute best. Featuring tracks like LOOSE JOINTS’ “It’s All Over My Face” and DINOSAUR L’s “Go Bang”—long beloved as garage classics—as well as “Let’s Go Swimming,” mixed by WALTER GIBBONS. Tracks like “In The Light Of Miracle” and “Pop Your Funk” are so popular that, in good condition, they can fetch over 100,000 yen. With the collaboration of NICK THE RECORD, IDJUT BOYS, OPTIMO, and others, this is a compilation put together with great passion by DAVE HILL of the now-defunct legendary label NUPHONIC.
