Unreleased! Elliott Smith - Grand Mal
2 months ago

Fuck yeah. In my opinion, Elliott Smith's songwriting and composing skills were on the level of an elite few. In a lot of ways, I think his songs were very similar to The Beatles (in structure, not style). He just happened to be an emotionally scarred junkie. I know comparing music to The Beatles is against the rules, but I believe that Elliott was on that level as a songwriter.Elliott died in ...

New Elliot Smith song appears!
2 months ago

The fans of the late, great Elliot Smith had to wonder after the leak of the Basement b-sides, if there was anything else coming. And there was, years later, at the hands of a poster on the Sweet Adeline message board. She hasn’t said specifically who she got it from, we don’t know the era it was created in, all I can tell you is that it’s called Grand Mal and it’s now, yours to have and

Review: Elliott Smith by Autumn de Wilde
3 months ago

The main thing that surprised me about Elliott Smith, Autumn de Wilde's book of images of the singer/songwriter (Chronicle, 2007) was that it was even published. I love Smith's music and have ever since I was first introduced—as millions were—via his astoundingly poignant contributions to the soundtrack for the film Good Will Hunting. For me, "Between The Bars", "Angeles" and "Miss Misery" to

Elliott Smith - New Moon

Blog post image preview

When the life of an artist or a band is cut tragically short, the greatest hits album or the b-sides compilation release is almost inevitable. Elliott Smith was a prolific songwriter and recorder, with scores of tracks that never found their way onto any of his classic albums. For years, much of this material circulated in bootleg-form in various corners of the internets, helping to build a q...

Hooked on Elliott Smith
about 1 year ago

His lyrics, sentiments and musical composition on his album, Either/Or, have won me over. The appeal is the simplicity in his style of music and the realism in his lyrics. Too, I am huge on acoustics and this particular album is high on that vibe. I need MORE MORE MORE.Though I am aware that he has passed on, I appreciate him leaving his music for us to discover and appreciate. I wish I had kno...

Between The Bars
over 2 years ago

Alright, alright - Elliott Smith did a cover on Metric's 'Between The Bars' right? and then Madeleine Peyroux covered it as well. right? I'm totally confused. I don't know who did it first - please help! I personally like Elliott Smith's and Madeleine Peyroux's version the most. But I really just like the song, so any version of it is fine with me.

(stalker!)Anyway, one of my big (musical) regrets in life was the day I gave up an Elliott Smith ticket for what would be his last NYC appearance cause I was “lazy.” Oh well. I won’t miss out on somet

Elliott Smith "Between The Bars" (mp3) from "Either/Or" (Kill Rock Stars) Popularized by the film Good Will Hunting, Between The Bars is one of my favorite Elliot Smith songs. His beautiful melodies and lyrics probably made him one of the most talented songwriters of our time. A song featuring his signature solo acoustic guitar and double tracked vocals, this song's lyrics can be interp...
