Обложка альбома «Picture of Bunny Rabbit» — Arthur Russell

When the producer/composer/Buddhist/American sweetheart Arthur Russell’s <i>World of Echo</i> came out in 1986, it sold so poorly that Russell suggested his label put a sticker on it: “UNINTELLIGIBLE”. It’s funny, but it also gets at the essence of what makes Russell’s music so special. Culled from the seemingly infinite tapes made in the year leading up to <i>Echo</i>’s release, the gorgeous cello-and-vocal abstractions of <i>Picture of Bunny Rabbit</i> capture the serenity of a mind that doesn’t trap its thoughts so much as watch them continuously evolve, treading lightly through a forest of echo and reverb as half-words gather into lines gather into songs (“Not Checking Up”) and gestures toward permanence dissolve into mist (“The Boy With a Smile”). It’s intimate, it’s uncanny—it’s the sound of something sitting right next to you, maybe closer.
