arthur russell - springfield (mp3)
drunk and with a brew to hand, is there really a better recipe for blog magic?
of late i’ve been at the mercy of several obsessions. there’s every bank manager’s wet dream that is gemm, the why-on-earth-hasn’t-anyone-forced-me-to-listen-to-these-before stereolab, something super secret and this man.
i know kev’s posted a couple of things that arthur russell’s been involved in before but i thought it was about time something solely by the man himself was aired on the beef blog.
taken from some of his last sessions before his death in 1992, despite dfa’s involvement in the remix and the release of the same name, springfield is simply stunning with mr russell being responsible for everything except the peter zummo supplied trombone and, for me at least, is a really nice way into the likes of his more sedate ‘another thought’ and ‘world of echo’: why oh why didn’t i take up the cello in the school orchestra?
possibly the best record with a tractor on the cover (although suggestions for other contenders for this particular crown are more than welcome) and also a more than tenuous reference from us here at the beef blog to the less-than-disappointing simpsons movie.
