Advantages: beautiful melodies, great guitarist, vocalist, acoustic Disadvantages: if you are into dance, very upbeat music then this isn't for you.
I absolutely love Elliott Smith. He is one the most influential, beautifully talented acoustic artist around, and as a musician myself his songs have true meaning and inspriation. This self-titled album is soothing, and a great pleasure to listen to. It's less polished and commercial than his other albums, but still has some brilliant classics such as 'coming up roses' 'needle in the hay' 'clementine' 'southern belle' and so many more, I could go ... ...and touch your soul, they reveal and paint the picture of his hard, pained but interesting life.This low production album is mezmerizing, and although takes a few listens to appreciate each song individually, is truly worth buying and having in the collection. Especially if you like acoustic, guitar vocal, lovely melodies, great guitar playing songs. This is the one for you. ...
