These are unreal. Thank you. Big part of music history heatmiser/Elliott smith

[@averagejoe1898]

Yes, i needed this so good

[@catface101]

1:17:28 Tony says "Tob and Rom" :P

[@levelanchorage]

holy thank you for this, you don't know how much this means 😭❤. I saw their last gig when I was 14!

[@jackdougherty5151]

57:13 THANK YOU oh my god, I've been obsessed with Fix & its production forever and this info has dropped in a long missing puzzle piece. amazing

[@spacealienjesus709]

The.Fix Is In ... Is my favorite track.. I wish i knew the chords.. " don't call me me to make disguises , fade away , cause honestly i'm more inclined , to make them stay "

[@akeithing1841]

'You want everyday to be like...that magic first!' Same here, a lot of memories to that song. Played and sang harmonies with an ex, with the chords, tune down a whole step, first chord D, E, G, there are some squirrely parts that you know are in there tho

[@rb919]

Elliott played it in his C tuning but standard is lovely.. verses are all just major chords with the 5th in their root.. C (with a G root) - D7 (with F# root) - then just ride that F major pony off into the sunset.. happy strumming trails✌😎

[@vinassa6532]

The Mic City Sons album and Elliott's solo work are timeless.

[@ChrisBarnette-zk8iy]

Neil and Elliott's style worked so well together. Even though songwriting split, it fit like a Lego block. Rest Easy , Mr. Smith.. Thanks for this and sharing. Great work..

[@chrissteiger4199]

They sounded really good touring with Neil and Sam. I love the figure 8 tour. So many great live performances.

[@spacealienjesus709]

Anything with Smith is golden.. Thank you..

[@wolfeel100]

Thanks for making these! I was fortunate to live in Oregon when Heatmiser made this record and in Idaho when Perfect from now on came out, and they are still probably two of my favorite records of all time. I loved Cop and Speeder too though, so I can't pick between the Heatmiser records (I loved keep it like a secret too). I saw that show in Washington Park Tony was talking about, and I thought it was amazing (they played Christian Brothers there, and I was going nuts). I also remember the first time I heard "get lucky" at one of those LaLuna new years shows. It was really thrilling. The groove was amazing. Not sure why Sam wouldn't like it the first time he heard it. Neil and Elliott really had something special together.

[@DoBTF2]

This deserves so many more views. Absolutely incredible hearing these in-depth and personal accounts, thank you for creating these!

[@ezrarichardson6235]

Had this on my watch later mix, finally sat down to listen to it…amazing! Awesome getting to hear in depth analyses to all the songs from one of my favorite albums, look forward to watching the rest of yer videos!

[@knuckle12356]

Loving this. Loving the implication in all these other comments, ("loving _these"_ they say,) at what other interviews might be waiting for me to discover amd enjoy.....all for meeeeeeee!!! And I've recorded EVERY secret message that has been left for me to discover, as well as the cryptic to decode the deeper messages left for me to find. But 4r, this is just great.

[@KingPhoey]

There is a lot of wisdom/knowledge here for musicians. Thanks for this.

[@casperowens2482]

Damn this is amazing and so illuminating. A lot of my suspicions were confirmed about the band in regards to their inner tension and turmoil, as well as some new stuff I would have never known. I think the end of this band's career can be most summed up as "bittersweet." Still love them

[@galacticspacebear9589]

This is an absolutely amazing interview. I've wanted to hear Neil, Sam, and Tony's perspective for so long. Thank you

[@chrissteiger4199]

Pixies and fugazi... love it. Love the quasi album mole city too. Mic city sons is also excellent.

[@redvine1105]

Wonderful work by EVERYONE involved here

[@misery3681]

Thanks, this is my favorite album

[@logwind]

[@joeydanielski962]

Not a huge Heatmiser fan, but this was a great listen. Excellent episode. I'll be keeping up with your show.

[@DaisyChaine]

[@neenerheaddj]

This is such a great record. Heatmiser was so special. Thanks for making these! ❤️

[@gopher777]

Amazing! Thank you so much! 🙏

[@gregoryirwin263]

This was great as much as i love Elliott Smith it was really good to hear the perspectives of the rest of the band

[@TheMisterMonkeyman]

This was great!! Thanks for this. I'm now subscribing, finding more of these, and binge watching them. Excellent content. Peace.

[@craigles6111]

This is fantastic. Thanks for posting.

[@Chainwhips]

So good. Thank you.

[@thumbprintn2413]

this is great ty

[@freeecountryy]

Where is Brandt? Would love to hear his take on all of this.

[@tyleragnew]

Started this and couldn't stop - amazing

[@philwillett9102]

I always felt Neil's songs were the stronger compositions on that record...His solo albums, especially "No Memory", sound like a natural follow-up to Mic City Sons.

[@edenbeats.8569]

Cruel Reminder, Blue Highway, Low Flying Jets, Rest My Head Against the Wall... All great GREAT songs.

[@gardenpalspodcast7302]

❤️❤️

[@NoName-cz3wn]

How the hell does this exist??!

[@ebeep]

Sam sure comes off as obtuse, dismissive, disgruntled, self-focused, and self-assured that his work outside of Heatmiser/Elliott was more important/valid and also under-appreciated. Maybe he could have saved this pout for a Quasi doc if ever someone is inspired enough by his work to initiate such a project.

[@capitalt3977]

I'm not hearing that

[@KoreTake78]

I’m 36 mins in and I’m hearing a bit of disappointment that he didn’t have a lot of creative freedom in the album due to work. I’m hearing a bit of tension from Tony, but appreciate his honesty in this.
