it guess i'm one of those certain people what draws me to the early elliott smith material is that it's so simple and honest, but still so powerful.
I wasn't trying to be mean or anything...I prefer his early stuff myself. I just also really enjoy his later stuff, and I have met a lot of people that totally trash it. I just never understood why.
