Arthur Russell's "Open Vocal Phrases..." voted #1 Archival Release @thewiremagazine.bsky.social 🙌

Arthur Russell requested a football-shaped sticker that stated, “UNINTELLIGIBLE” to be placed on the cover of the original World Of Echo LP. Arthur’s joke was honored posthumously with the Audika reissue of WOE, and now lives on in wearable T-shirt form for all to understand. Link in profile
