Description:

Since the initial groundbreaking release of â??The World of Arthur Russellâ??, Russell has become the subject of intense media interest. With the recent release of a film about his life (â??A Portrait of Arthur Russellâ??), as well as new albums of unreleased recordings, Arthur Russellâ??s stature as a great artist has grown to is current height. (â??One of the great songwriters of the 2oth Centuryâ? The Wire). - ..WORLD OF ARTHUR RUSSELL

While Russell was formally trained as a classical cellist, he was very much a multi-faceted musician, having produced the first 12 inch single for Seymour Stein's Sire label ("Kiss Me Again") and co-founded the Sleeping Bag label himself. Sleeping Bag releases were the heart of the underground disco music scene that operated well below the radar of the pop hits that dominated the charts. Under the guise of Dinosaur L, Russell released "Go Bang" to great acclaim (remixed by Francois Kervorkian). Sleeping Bag releases were regularly played at Larry Levan's Paradise Garage and other haunts of true discophiles. Here is a wonderful compendium of the man's lifetime of work, that life cut all too short by AIDS in 1992.

This release has a 24 page booklet containing a biography by Chris Menist Track 11 is listed as a "Bonus Track" though it appears to be on all versions (CD and vinyl) of this release. Originally released in a jewel case housed in a cardboard slipcase. Barcode listed on slipcase only.
