The World of Arthur Russell

The World of Arthur Russell is a compilation album by Arthur Russell, released in 2004 on Soul Jazz Records.

Reception

Simon Reynolds of Uncut gave the album a five star rating, but stated that the album "is splendid but in truth only scratches the surfaces of Russell's officially released work (plus there's mountains of unreleased material originally deemed too kooky for the '80s post-disco market)."
