Thanks punksgitcut. Our thread about best albums was very good for me. Slint, Jesus and Mary Chain, and Elliott Smith were all introduced to me in that thread.

And i love you for the Elliott Smith. I didn't think it was possible for me to love anyone as much as I love the Beatles, but here he is.

I am currently collecting all of his works, rare and live and making a torrent if anyone wants to give a listen or needs one. It's a compilation of all released and unreleased albums, singles, live material and studio outtakes.

no problem! every person has a song that they hear that makes them want to learn guitar, and this would be one of them.

Torrents available.

If anyone knows where I can find a link to the Brooklyn Northisix show on 6-9-03 that would be fantastic, otherwise, its ready.

say yes is a great song...see you later, half right, etc.

there are electric versions of see you later and half right with Elliott's side project Heatmiser

I haven't explored his stuff too much outside of New Moon, but he was an unbelievable songwriter
