I'm familiar with Dinosaur L and Loose Joints - but what about his solo stuff? Which should I pick up first?

    Which should I pick up first?




    Start with that one or "World of Arthur Russell."

    If you just getting into him get World Of Arthur Russell cuz it's easy to find and this will give you a good outline of his work. But that comp is a lot of stuff he did with other groups as well so still seek out his solo joints.

    One of the only records I've sold because of the condition. VG+ does not do the music justice. I'll stick w/ the reissue until I score a NM one.
