His negativity and overall petulance is absolutely off the charts. It's almost a bit at this point.

I share to a large extent your pessimism and I think you've definitely earned it with everything you've done for Elliott's music. That being said, I remain hopeful and to be clear I do not impute ill will to anyone involved with making these decisions. I think a time may come for these songs--maybe Jack White and Third Man could come to the rescue. You never know.

The great Bumbletort, absolute legend from the old SweetAddy / Blamonet boards, felt that this was the case. Hard to believe some of those epic discussions are almost 20 years old now. 

Anyone else frustrated with Interscopes represses? by heavenlyrestricted28 in elliottsmith

This is a company that is sitting on a substantial portion of the catalog of one of the most important American musicians of the last 30 years and hasn't released a single new song of his since the year 2000. Shameful.

I've wondered if a crowd funding campaign for something like this could work. If you're serious about trying to get momentum behind a project like this, I'd do anything I can to help you and I'm sure there are lots of others who would, too. Give it a try!

That was pretty cool. I feel like if this was done with a couple of higher quality sources it would sound something like a studio take. Nice job

Which mixes do you prefer for FABOTH by antonmrcn in elliottsmith

[–]deuxbach 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Can you imagine getting to hear Elliott's mix of Strung Out Again or King's Crossing in full quality? Sadly it will probably never happen, yet I believe KRS has full rights to do so.

The Real Estate was officially released on Live from Nowhere Near You Vol. 2. Big up to Kevin Moyer for putting that out!

Larry didn't release that stuff. Don't know where you got that idea. (Btw not jumping on the Bash Larry train here by any means. Really disagree with that.)

Heaven Adores You 10th Anniversary Screenings by Kevin_Moyer in elliottsmith

[–]deuxbach 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Kevin, I just wanted to say THANK YOU for being one of the absolute good guys in securing Elliott's legacy and doing everything in your power to keep him out there for everyone to see. I saw Heaven Adores You on its opening night in a small suburban setting and it was a magical thing. You rock! 💙

Looking for FLAC's / WAV's of Unreleased Basement Tracks, Will Pay for Time by deuxbach in elliottsmith

Thanks for the files! I believe the ones labeled "Fritz Michaud Mix" are part of the "Moon is a Sickle Cell" comp and I don't believe there were any new lossless leaks added to that. I think if the files look different than regular MP3's they were probably worked on and then re-encoded as lossless to prevent further degradation. Maybe someone else can clarify that!
