unfortunately arthur died a few years ago. i haven't heard any of the
dinosaur l stuff, i heard uk house label nuphonic are hoping to rerelease
all of arthurs 'disco' stuff. he also played cello and there is a nice
comp called 'another thought' of his songs, some of which are strange
classical / disco hybrids, very 'new york art music' but better than
that sounds :^) i found quite a bit about him on the web not so long ago.
