GloriousNoise: “A few years ago, Larry Crane, editor of Tape Op Magazine, and Elliott Smith’s friend and studio partner from back in Portland, become the official archivist of Elliott Smith’s estate. We interviewed Crane back in 2007 before the release of New Moon, a collection of mostly unreleased songs recorded between 1994 and 1997…In the time since that interview, Crane has digitized over a terabyte of audio from various sources. It seems that Elliott Smith was constantly recording. We caught up with Larry via email to see what he’s found since we last talked.”
