Elevator
An elevator (US) or lift (UK) is a type of vertical transportation that moves people or goods between floors (levels, decks) of a building, vessel, or other structure. Elevators are generally powered by electric motors that either drive traction cables or counterweight systems like a hoist, or pump hydraulic fluid to raise a cylindrical piston like a jack.
In agriculture and manufacturing, an elevator is any type of conveyor device used to lift materials in a continuous stream into bins or silos. Several types exist, such as the chain and bucket bucket elevator, grain auger screw conveyor using the principle of Archimedes' screw, or the chain and paddles or forks of hay elevators.
Languages other than English may have loanwords based on either elevator (e.g., Japanese and Mandarin Chinese) or lift (e.g., Cantonese, Korean, Russian and Thai).
Because of wheelchair access laws, elevators are often a legal requirement in new multistory buildings, especially where wheelchair ramps would be impractical.
Elevator (Bay City Rollers album)
Elevator is a 1979 rock album by the Bay City Rollers. Having replaced longtime lead singer Les McKeown with Duncan Faure, the group shortened their name to simply The Rollers, and pursued a more rocking, power-pop sound than their previous work.
The album, released by Arista, was poorly received. Neither the album itself or any single releases would hit the charts.
The album was reissued on CD in 2008, with no bonus cuts however.

Elevator (band)
Elevator is a band from Moncton, New Brunswick. Started in 1994 as Elevator To Hell, a solo outlet for Eric's Trip lead man Rick White, the project eventually grew to include Eric's Trip drummer Mark Gaudet and White's ex-wife Tara on bass and, for a short while, Ron Bates of Orange Glass as a fourth member. Dallas Good of The Sadies joined the band for their most recent studio LP and live performances from around this time. The band mainly produces haunting, lo-fi psychedelia.
History
After releasing some albums on Sub Pop, the band's name changed to Elevator Through, and by 1999 it was shortened to simply Elevator, due to concerns over the commercial viability of the original moniker.
In 1997, The Sadies' Dallas Good was added as a second guitarist, though he did not begin recording with the band until 2002's Darkness → Light album.
Between label releases, Elevator have put out many albums on their own Great Beyond label.
At the 2009 Sappy Fest, in Sackville, New Brunswick, White confirmed that Elevator had broken up.
