brianjeremy Posted August 25, 2006 Share Posted August 25, 2006 either/orBasementxoFigure 8 Those are the only ones I have. I do love them though. I haven't been able to get enough of him lately. Been downloading all of his demos and such. I'm just too lazy to pick up his other albums unless I find them used. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
rghammo Posted August 25, 2006 Share Posted August 25, 2006 this: http://www.elliottsmithbsides.com/Yeti.htm is my favourite elliott song though. i think its on the From a Basement demos too, but i like this recording better, the little solo thing is higher in the mix. Thanks for the link. This is a great song. I think I have it somewhere on a Basement demos comp but I haven't heard it in a while. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
WildMercurySound Posted August 25, 2006 Share Posted August 25, 2006 Either/OrXOBasementRoman CandleFigure 8Elliott Smith ...i think. The quality is pretty consistent, although I listen to the top two the most by far. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Loial Posted August 26, 2006 Share Posted August 26, 2006 Basement is my favoritebest album of 2004 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
kaytertot Posted August 26, 2006 Share Posted August 26, 2006 It's so difficult for me to put them in any order. I was introduced to him with XO, so I fell in love with that one first. Then came Either/Or, and they were tied for a while. It all depends on what I feel like hearing I guess. But I guess I could listen to Either/Or and self-titled endlessly... I DON'T KNOW!The man was a genius. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

ShaneShaneShane Posted August 27, 2006 Share Posted August 27, 2006 i'd say Basement followed by Either/Or followed by XO. Figure 8, while a very fine album, would be at the bottom of my list. the others are interchangable. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I don't think i have it. Check it out here: Roman Candle at AMG It is his debut and has a lot in common with the S/T that was his second. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
TCP Posted August 27, 2006 Share Posted August 27, 2006 XO, every song on it is flawless. Either/Or is up there too. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
jhh4321 Posted August 27, 2006 Share Posted August 27, 2006 I guess I would say Either/Or (was my first ES album) but I also love Basement (though there is a bit of filler in there IMO). Quote Link to post Share on other sites

MrRain422 Posted August 27, 2006 Share Posted August 27, 2006 XO, followed by Basement Quote Link to post Share on other sites
oatmealblizzard Posted August 27, 2006 Share Posted August 27, 2006 It has to be either XO or Either/Or for me. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
