ELLIOTT SMITH DISCOGRAPHY

4/26/94 - yellow no. 5 released

The Heatmiser EP Yellow No. 5 was released on 4/26/94 according to Wikipedia. I've also seen it listed elsewhere as being released on 5/13/94 but I'm not positive which is correct.

The EP (other than the song Wake which was recorded 11/92) was recorded in February 1994. According to the liner notes, it was recorded at C.A.M.M.


Also from the liner notes:

- Produced by Heatmiser
- Engineered and mixed by Tony Lash
- Production assistant: Eric Hedford
- Mixed at Dead Aunt Thelma's
- All songs written by Heatmiser
- Cover illustration by Colin Burns
- Photographs by JJ Gonson
- Computer assistance: Chris Johnson
- Art direction by Neil Gust

My understanding is that  it was only put out on CD at this time. Vinyl copies were put out in future years but there are some photos of them here. I do not have separate timeline photos for when any of the vinyl came out. Some (but not all) of the different pressings throughout the years are pictured below, some photos taken from discogs.com. To see more detailed info on each pressing, see the Yellow No. 5 page of the main discography.

Also pictured below is a one line review of Yellow No. 5 from a 1994 issue of Speed Kills zine. There's an upclose photo and one of the entire page it's on.
