I came across the name Arthur Russell while doing a random search on the internet for what I like to call "hypnotic, uplifting music." After hearing some of the short samples, I decided to take the plunge and purchase 'Calling Out of Context.' It proved to be one of the best music purchases I had made in a long time.
Arthur Russell was a very talented innovator and performer, and this album is a testament to his talents. This is perfect music to lose yourself in, for those times when you want to be transported to a very positive and sensual place. His soothing voice will guide you into a state of bliss that mere words can't describe.
Long live the music and memory of Arthur Russell.
