i already knew some of the songs (angel in the snow, riot coming, going nowhere, placeholder, half right...) thanks to www.elliottsmithbsides.com (website with all his demo or b-side tracks) but that's so great to listen to elliott smith again... but so sad, to remind that i couldn't see him playing live again...there're other/early versions of 2 awesome songs : miss misery and pretty mary k, see you later...some of his friends wrote some stuffs about him in the cd booklet, i will read it tonight i think...other good news : the great photographer and elliott's friend : autumn de wilde (www.autumndewilde.com) has made a book with pictures and with notes of other friends and musicians he knew... "LIFE IN PICTURESAs a sort of visual complement to "New Moon," Chronicle Books plans a November release for "Elliott Smith," a photo book compiled by Autumn De Wilde.The 200-plus-page volume features De Wilde's numerous live and promotional snapshots of the musician, such memorabilia as handwritten lyrics and interviews with family, friends and admirers like Ben Gibbard (Death Cab for Cutie), Sam Coomes (Quasi), Matthew Caws (Nada Surf), Jon Brion and Ashley Welch (Smith's sister).The book also includes a five-song, solo acoustic live CD, recorded over several nights at Los Angeles' Largo. The previously unreleased set consists of "Between the Bars," "Angeles," "Clementine," a cover of Quasi's "Clouds" and Hank Williams Jr.'s "All My Rowdy Friends Have Settled Down."
