Description

Complete your Arthur Russell collection. Disappointed with this extremely meager reissue of one of the more interesting albums of the last 30 years. No special inner sleeves, no insert, no liner notes regarding the only proper album he released during his lifetime. Sound is mostly fine with some surface noise throughout.

Album by Arthur Russell. Soon-to-Be Innocent Fun, Let's See. Answers Me. Being It. Place I Know, Kid Like You. She's the Star, I Take This Time. Hiding Your Present From You. Wax the Van. All-Boy.

Listen free to Arthur Russell – World of Echo (Tone Bone Kone, Soon-to-Be Innocent Fun/Let's See and more). World of Echo is the only full length non-collaborative studio album recorded, released and compiled by Arthur Russell during his lifetime. It was released in 1986 on Upside Records in the United States and on Rough Trade Records in the United Kingdom. Departing from his dance music recordings of the time, it instead features Russell solo on cello with added electronics and production effects, including echo, reverb, and distortion.

My comment is directed not towards the music of World of Echo, which is quite beautiful, but towards the DVD portion. Like many others who were anxiously awaiting this reissue, I looked forward to actually viewing an Arthur Russell performance. The DVD was quite a let down. Two minimalist performance pieces filmed by Phil Niblock are included on it. They are, unfortunately, excruciatingly boring. I wanted to feel the intimacy that I felt was trying to be conveyed, but the poor film quality and hand-held shaky movements were too much of a distraction. The lengthy and slow close-ups of Russell's stubble, lips, nose and chin that comprise the first piece left me unaffected. Occasionally, Niblock lets the camera linger on the cello's body. Russell's movement with the bow is quite interesting, unfortunately you have to sit through a lot of grainy, slow moving stubble action before those moments arrive. Given its limited numbers and previous unavailability, collectors of Russell's work will surely snap these up. However, if you're only after the music, then I would bypass the mixed media version and pick up the audio recording only.
