Celebrate the 20th anniversary of Elliott Smith's iconic album, Either/Or! Widely hailed as his best work, this expanded edition from Kill Rock Stars is a must - have. Remastered from original tapes, it includes extra recordings from around the album's 1997 release. That year was a game - changer for Smith, with his music in Gus Van Sant's Good Will Hunting soundtrack and an Oscar - nominated performance. Either/Or is a bridge between his lo - fi and studio - sheen eras. It has bleak lyrics but a pop sensibility, beautifully balancing dissonance and melody. This double - vinyl release by Kill Rock Stars comes with live recordings, bonus tracks, a reproduction of the original liner note insert. Features include a black double vinyl pressing, 5 live multitrack recordings from the 1997 Yo Yo A Go Go Festival, 3 unreleased studio recordings, and 1 rare b - side. Original release was in 1997, and it's a 2023 release from Kill Rock Stars.
