Grungy looking long-haired, ex-heroin users do have a place in
society.
Known best for his Oscar-nominated work for the “Good Will
Hunting” soundtrack, Elliot Smith is characterized by his
trademark harmonies and angst-filled folk tunes. Having released
five full albums, and making music since the age of 14, Smith is
today’s editor’s pick.
Because he’s not commonly heard on the radio, his music
will provide a nice relief from the typical KROQ cornucopia of
crap.
