ELLIOTT SMITH DISCOGRAPHY

1/1/95 - Needle in the hay 7" released

The Needle in the Hay 7" was released in January 1995. I've seen some online sources just mention the month only but others cite the release date specifically as 1/1/95 so I'm listing that as the date for this timeline.

The single was only on 7" (no 12" single or CD single) and put out by Kill Rock Stars Records. It was on black vinyl. It was reissued, again on black vinyl, in 2007. And then on red vinyl in 2022. Those reissues don't have their own pages on here since there were no added tracks or anything but some photos are down below. For more details about all those different pressings, please see the Needle in the Hay page of the main discography.

According to the liner notes from the single:

- Recorded 9/94 in Tony's basement
- Photo by JJ Gonson
- Copy and publish whatnot by Spent Bullets BMI

​Some photos below taken from discogs.com. There is also a photo of a Kill Rock Stars ad featuring this single. That was from issue #32 of Puncture magazine.
