Arthur Russell- Sketches for World of Echo & Open Vocal Phrases, Where Songs Come in

SKU: 880301102920
¥4,500

Sketches For World of Echo/ Open Vocal Phrases, Where Songs Come in And Out offers two intimate unedited Arthur Russell solo live performances recorded at Phill Niblock's Experimental Intermedia Foundation in Downtown NYC on 12/20/85 and 06/25/84. Phill curated and produced with Arthur both concerts at EI that would become part of the foundation for the World of Echo album. Arthur titled the performances "Sketches for World of Echo" (released on cassette/DL in 2020) and "Open Vocal Phrases, Where Songs Come in and Out". These extraordinary performances were recorded 18 months apart between 1984/85 by Steve Cellum and overseen by Phill and Arthur. Arthur would later edit sections from both concerts merging it with studio material recorded at Battery Sound to finalize the World of Echo album released in 1986.
