1985-2000:
Intensive self-recording, avoidance of bandwork/concerts; becoming either the lo-fi Syd Barrett, minus the acid, for 20-somethings (original mystical-folk-psyche vocal stylings GNOSTIC SONGS, UNSOLVED BLISS-TERIES, MUSIC FOR GIRLS); or the thinking supermodel's Nino Rota (the all-instrumental FOREHEAD MOVIES); or a reluctant Frank Sinatra with anglophilic 60's fixation to a new generation (when doing covers THESE FOOLISH PINUPS).

Hobbies: CDs...Books...Manhattan Beauty-Terrorist Patrol...subtle anatomy exploration under a RockyFeller grant...filling HELIOCD w/ multimedia material...spontaneous acts of random 'Astound me!' for Gotham devas, kids, models, surveillance cameras~

"Never was there a moment when he felt uncool. His unique style and cool hair due is still the same when I look at his pictures even today. He'll never be forgotten for he has left the greatest treasure of all, his voice..."

Another bio. by Erica Taylor

GEORGE ELLIOTT is a magnificent physical package of the sort the Creator may throw into a generation as a bonus to the deserving, or as a gesture of apology for some of His other subjects. He is, beyond all doubt, the most complete, runaway pop-star-of-stars in the Union, containing in himself the collective fantasy-mind of the American teen because he stands for the ultimate in the unattainable.

Panther-loping with a ribboned ponytail of thick, gleaming, ebony-hued luxuriance, his chest bold under clustered ruffles of snow-white lace, a scarlet frock coat flying away from his slim, broad-belted waist, and in his hand an heroic tricorn hat, G.E. is the boy-next-door only to the virile phantoms of Captain Blood, Prince Valiant, Robin Hood, D'Artagnan and others who followed the sword in the flaming fires of fiction and kept, for all time, that portion of the mortal spirit which craves an alter ego braver than itself. Yet he knows, and is most grateful that the fans are there to make him the hero that he is.

In dramatic terms, GEORGE is the lofty hero whose tasks and duties must, sadly but necessarily, leave him a lonely, crusading celibate. His robust good humor and gentle manner in live performance conceal an inability to be a zany in the accepted popstar tradition. If you wish, color him scarlet-fire, and paint in smoldering women. But in reality, GEORGE ELLIOTT, man and mystic, is totally alone.
