196: Elliott Smith with Alan & Andrea
This is a big one. We had a little gap in our schedule so Alan & Andrea decided to get all of their feelings about Elliott Smith down in podcast form. We talk about that voice, those melodies, that guitar playing, the time he and Louis theroux interviewed each other for Select Magazine, his creative partnership with Jon Brion and so much more. Sidenote: consider this a kind of reverse trigger warning: we don’t talk about any details of Elliott Smith’s death or engage in any speculation around it in this episode. Here’s the Elliott Smith and Jon Brion show we mention https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PK4okHerWeI and here’s the Elliott Smith/Louis Theroux interview https://selectmagazinescans.monkeon.co.uk/?p=2571 Alan is @alan_maguire.
