ARTHUR RUSSELL - Love Is Overtaking Me, Rough Trade

Offering an alternate view of Arthur Russell's career, Love Is Overtaking Me brings together the massively influential artists folk and country compositions, recorded between his formative days in the '70s and his untimely death in 1992. The first thing to strike you about album opener 'Close My Eyes' is how much Russell sounds like Townes Van Zandt - with a hint of James Taylor in his voice. He fits into the country sound wonderfully, coming across as effortlessly authentic without conforming too heavily to genre expectations. For instance, 'Goodbye Old Paint' features strings, woodwind and what sounds like droning sitar, bringing a welcome outsider angle to classic Americana song formats. Some of the later recordings venture more pronouncedly into edgier avant-pop (as on the uptempo new-wave/disco of 'Your Motion Says'), but regardless of the era, Russell seems able to embed something fresh and unmistakably his own within conventional songwriting tropes. A perfect introduction to Arthur Russell's oeuvre for uninitiated listener, as a collection of songs Love Is Overtaking Me is pretty hard to find fault with and very different to pretty much everything else in the known Arthur Russell canon. A real find - and a massive recommendation.

What does FLAC mean?

FLAC is a lossless audio format designed for superior sound quality.

FLAC stands for Free Lossless Audio Codec, an audio format similar to MP3, but lossless, meaning that audio is compressed in FLAC without any loss in quality. This is similar to how Zip works, except with FLAC you will get much better compression because it is designed specifically for audio.

Who is it for?

You are a bit of a music connoisseur, you deem 320Kbps MP3s to be inferior, you want DRM free, lossless downloads and you want them now! Sound familiar? Then FLAC is for you.
