Blessed with the voice of a wispy angel, Elliot Smith creates sad little pop songs, which, like the work of Nick Drake (to whom he's been compared) threaten to disappear into the night air. --Rob O'Connor.

Reviews"This Is an Indisputable 10-Star Album with No Peer and No Real Room for Improvement.", 4 stars out of 5 - "EITHER/OR took the small arranging step needed to turn Smith's beautifully, harmonically sly but still then mostly self-accompanied tunes into indisputable pop.", "...an awkward sort of prettiness that fits him well....a U-turn from the aggressive, basement minimalism of his last solo record....proving himself to be an artist of uncommon dexterity and grace.", 7 (out of 10) - "...ranges from low-fi sparseness to rock with a melodicism Smith's band Heatmiser has yet to match....Though the harrowing heroin tales of Smith's last album are gone, his frequent alcoholidays suggest a less outwardly tortured Mark Eitzel...", Ranked #24 in Mojo's "100 Modern Classics" -- "Characteristically double-tracked vocals whispered into the listener's head, revealing the confessions of a man struggling to escape an undisclosed past.", Ranked #20 in the Village Voice's 1997 Pazz & Jop Critics' Poll., "As is true of all great songwriters who write from a personal place, to love Elliott Smith’s music is to relate to him....It’s even truer now that he’s gone.", "This is the sound of Smith conjuring something far bigger than himself and coming into his own as a songwriter, arranger, and performer.", Ranked #73 in Spin Magazine's "90 Greatest Albums of the '90s.", "...Very Frequently on Either/Or Elliott Smith...Leaves You in Awe at His Quiet Power...", 4 Stars Out of 5-"Dark Surrealism with a Wispy, Half-There Voice and an Always Surprising Chorus."
Additional InformationThe troubled singer's third album finds him expanding the arrangements to include more instruments, while still delivering songs filled with desperate beauty.

Interesting....
Interesting album. Never really heard of the guy before but checked him out from a guitar teacher on YouTube doing a cover of one of his songs. Very sad back story to guy's tragic demise but a week or so I like the album. Apparently Elliott was a bit of a musical prodigy. The tunes are catchy enough to draw you in but might need a bit more to fill them out. Early days yet but passed my "immediately dislike" test!Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned
