From Blogcritics i found out that Christopher O’Riley, who has done these albums of piano interpretations of rock bands like Radiohead, has recently released an album of Elliott Smith covers (or interpretations, it’s hard to call the song a cover when there’s no voice and no instrumentation other than the piano). The album is entitled Home to Oblivion which is a very Elliott type of title (though perhaps it’s a more specific reference or song name that i’m not aware of?) On Amazon there’s also this album called “To Elliott from Portland” which is more your standard indie rock covers from local Portland bands of E.S.’s songs.
… Too band i can’t pick up any of that stuff at the local DVD shop in Shanghai.
