This archive has more than 650.Įvery download that can be found by searching anywhere online is in this archive. The original collection from 2016 had 180 tracks in it. The Moon is a Sickle Cell has been updated for 2021, with the goal of collecting and preserving every rarity track currently out there in circulation in the best quality possible, to make them available to the public into the future. So it can serve as a snapshot of things up until 2023. This will probably be the last update ever to the archive. And fingers crossed that the audio production will sound like something Elliott would have been happy with. That kind of mastering can only be achieved with access to the original recordings for the individual instrument and vocal parts.įingers crossed that we'll see the official release of some of these tracks next year for the 20th anniversary of From a Basement on the Hill. This can be seen in the difference between songs mixed by Larry Crane and songs mixed by Fritz Michaud, which the community tends to think is more in line with what Elliott would have wanted. Elliott's talent wasn't only his songcraft, but also his audio production skills. I'm still dying to hear a good quality studio version of "Stained Glass Eyes" or "Flowers for Charlie" or "You Make It Seem Like Nothing" or "Abused."Ī lot of these tracks have never seen any kind of official release or master by a professional audio engineer who could replicate Elliott's production style. Still, there's always a chance that some of his music could be lost to time. I've enjoyed seeing how his music has been kept alive through various projects and shares. I like that he's music's best kept secret and I'm glad to be a part of the fan community. His music doesn't have the same kind of backing that an artist owned by a major label would, so I think that's why he always seems like he's just on the periphery. He seems to always pop up in conversations with musical creatives and he's kind of become a ubiquitous reference, especially in the studio. To really explain this, within this archive is a "best of the archive" collection that has 80 tracks that never made it to an album.Įlliott's influence on other songwriters has been immense. There are so many songs that Elliott wrote and recorded that are excellent, but haven't been released. The hope for this project from the start was to preserve Elliott's unreleased work in the best quality possible. This includes Stranger Than Fiction, Harum Scarum, A Murder of Crows, and Heatmiser. This update adds the leaks and releases from earlier this year of his work before his solo career. The Moon is a Sickle Cell has been updated for the 20th anniversary of Elliott's passing.
