I never listened to any song of Elliot Smith before :oops: what kinda music is this?

Elliott Smith is a great songwriter, most of his early stuff is lo-fi, acoustic guitar type of songs, but then when he had a full band play on his albums, the songs were even better. He mostly writes guitar and piano type songs with incredible lyrics, but alot of it is kinda depressing, as he was a tortured soul (killed himself), but an absolutely phenomenal songwriter, definitley worth getting into, just beautiful

Yes very well put. I love a bit of Elliott Smith. Don't own any on vinyl, but it's only a matter of time. Thumbs up for the purchase

yeah it certainly is, I put it on and sat between the speakers and it was like Ray was behind me singing

also got this one

now you're talking!!! i absolutely love Elliott Smith & this LP sounds fantastic on vinyl!!! hell, all of them do! Figure 8 is probably my favorite album of his, but they all sound so nice on vinyl. i just need to pick up New Moon...then my ES collection is complete!

Hey mfc2006, out of curiosity, do you have the originals or reissues? I've found the reissues on KRS are great, but the XO and Figure 8 reissues on Plain are pretty dodgy (terrible, in the case of the latter)

mfc2006

The only reissue I have is Roman Candle. The rest are original pressings. But I've heard the Figure 8 reissue & it didn't sound bad at all (in my opinion).

Hm, I must just be unlucky with mine. The quiet stuff sounds great, but harder songs like Son of Sam are full of static and sound compressed. :(
Pretty cool that you have the originals, they don't tend to be that easy to come by these days.

this one arrived today
Sleeve is a bit "used" but the vinyl is still in great shape!

Soccer Mom - You Are Not Going To Heaven 10" E.P. on Sweaters and Pearls Records.. I love finding tiny record companies that put out quality product.. I've never heard Soccer Mom until now.. Real heavy Dinosaur Jr influence coming through

I'm not saying this because of all the hype surrounding this but, Backspacer white is a real beauty, It's the first white vinyl record I've owned that is actually kind of a white swirl rather than pure white.
