Arthur Russell - Love is Overtaking Me "Remastered/Redux" (Double Black Vinyl)

Audika Records presents a remastered/redux double vinyl re-release of the much-beloved compilation Love Is Overtaking Me, of Arthur’s folk, pop, and country songs including “Planted a Thought”, “Close My Eyes”, and “I Couldn’t Say It To Your Face”. Originally released in 2007, the redux edition includes new masters from a recently found pristine tape reel and was remastered by Timothy Stollenwerk at Stereophonic Mastering in Portland, OR. Revised artwork by Molly Smith with extensive liner notes from Arthur’s partner Tom Lee. 

Compiled from over eight hours of material, Love Is Overtaking Me reaches back further to Russell’s earliest compositions beginning in 1973 and spans forward to his very last recordings, made at home in 1991. Several of the songs featured prominently in Matt Wolf’s now herald 2008 film Wild Combination: A Portrait of Arthur Russell.
