Product Details

Released posthumously the year after his death, *From a Basement on the Hill* captures Smith in a rawer, more expansive mode than the orchestral arrangements of *Figure 8*, drawing on years of home recordings and unfinished sessions that collaborators Rob Schnapf and Joanna Bolme carefully shaped into a cohesive final statement. On cassette, that intimacy only deepens.

Brand new digital transfers from the original 1/4' tape mixes by Rob Schnapf & Joanna Bolme. Remastered by the official Elliott Smith archival team of Larry Crane (Jackpot! Studio/Tape Op) and Adam Gonsalves (Telegraph Mastering).From A Basement On The Hill is Smiths final recording and finds Smith returning to an edgier, guitar-driven sound, alongside his trademark heart-rending balladry. From a Basement on the Hill was originally released on October 19, 2004 on ANTI- Records and is now proudly re-issued by Kill Rock Stars - now home of all of Elliott's indie releases.
