Release Notes:

Arthur Russell was the secret link between New York music
scenes of the Seventies and Eighties - an experimental
composer, a pathbreaking disco producer, a rocker in Talking
Heads' orbit, a wildly original singer. His downfall, though,
was a perfectionism that kept him from finishing his
recordings. Culled from his ample archives, this set collects
unheard pop songs from 1973 to 1991, a year before his death
from AIDS-related complications. Russell's lighter-than-air
voice, murmuring about big-city love, recalls Nick Drake, and
his filigreed melodies are stingingly gorgeous. These
bashed-out renditions sound open-ended, as if he meant to
tweak them later. Still, lapidary songs like "Don't Forget
About Me" are even more precious for having been snatched from
the mouth of oblivion.
