This week we’re talking about the wonderful, troubled, and extremely high Elliott Smith. This was suggested to us by Lars from Sweden, so thanks for that. Also, surprising no one at all, Mike and Alex disagree entirely about Elliott Smith’s music. We will say, however, that if you enjoy beautifully intricate folk music, as well as Beatles knockoffs, Elliott Smith is right up your alley.

Closing track: “Last Call” from Roman Candle (1994)
