What, Elliott Smith?
Wikipedia describes him as "an American singer-songwriter and musician. His primary instrument was the guitar, but he was also proficient at piano, clarinet, bass, harmonica and drums. Smith had a distinctive vocal style characterized by his "whispery, spiderweb-thin delivery", and use of multi-tracking to create vocal harmonies."
Which is about as sterile a description as you'll ever hear.
He was a craftsman with a tune, a real natural honest craftsman, quite quite brilliant. Sort of somewhere between american indie, folk and alt.country
I'll do you a copy of Figure 8 if you like.
