Elliott Smith

I think you need at least one of Sufjan/Elliot/Iron and Wine, but probably not more than one.

Any sort of consensus on this? Illinois was on my preliminary list, but I really really love either/or.

I think XO is far better than Either/Or and better than anything Beam has ever done but not better than Illinois.

I think XO is a better album but Either/Or has the better songs.

Waltz #2, Bottle Up and Explode, a Question Mark, Baby Britain, and Bled White are better than anything on Either/Or. I never really understood the fascination with that album.

Say Yes is his best song.
