Another Arthur Russell disc is on the way, according to an article published by p4k yesterday. Harvested from the myriad demos and unreleased material Russell recorded before his premature death in 1992, the new album will be titled Love Is Overtaking Me and be released on October 28th by Audika Records. Per usual, I'm sure the disc will showcase what was perhaps one of the most innovative musicians to have lived. Head on over to Audika's myspace to hear some new tracks off the record.
Interestingly, Chris Taylor of Grizzly Bear is on the mixing and editing details. It seems as if Taylor is slowly taking over the world of great musical releases with production on the recent, stellar In Ear Park from fellow bandmate Daniel Rossen's other endeavor Department of Eagles and Miles Benjamin Anthony Robinson's s/t. I'm sure, a la Yellow House, he's probably at the helms of the new GB album too. Quite the busy guy, it seems.
On a different but related note, the recent Arthur Russell documentary Wild Combination will hit shelves sometime in November and is scheduled to show here as part of the Seattle Lesbian & Gay Film Festival, which takes place from October 17-26. Exact details when they surface.
