“Recently the fine people of helped me transfer the original 16mm negative from my video of Elliott Smith “Coming Up Roses“. We pulled some hi res scans for the print issue and a profile on my work with Elliott. Going through the footage I had a lot of feels. I wanted to share with his friends and fans. I present to you here the entire play back take we shot for the video back in 95. I was overcome with emotion watching the tenderness in which Elliott gently prompts Raul the back up singer when he is supposed to chime in with the harmony. The few moments that Elliott drops the music video facade and lets that shy smile his friends knew so well are precious to me. They give me life. I wish the same for you. From the album Elliott Smith on KIll Rock Stars.“ -Ross Harris, Director Subscribe to Kill Rock Stars on YouTube! killrockstars
