Listen to an unreleased Elliott Smith track

Listen to "I Figured You Out", an unreleased Elliott Smith track

To commemorate the 20th Anniversary of Elliott Smith’s Either/Or, Kill Rock Stars have announced Either/Or: Expanded Edition, out March 10, 2017 on 2LP, 2CD and digital. This announcement also marks the premiere of an unreleased track “I Figured You Out.”

“I Figured You Out” was recorded as a demo for Mary Lou Lord, who later recorded a version (produced, performed, recorded, and mixed by Elliott Smith) for her Martian Saints EP (KRS-264). Neil Gust plays doubled drums. “I Figured You Out” was recorded by Elliott Smith at Heatmiser House in 1995. The track was mixed by Larry Crane in May 2010, at Jackpot! Recording Studio.

Either/Or: Expanded Edition features the original tracks carefully remastered from original tapes under the supervision of Larry Crane. The second disc features five live multi-track recordings from the Yo Yo A Go Go Festival in Olympia WA in 1997, as well as three previously unreleased studio recordings and one b-side gem. The double LP is packaged in a gatefold jacket that includes an insert of the original liner notes, a postcard of the original master tapes, and several never-before seen photos.
