If you want just guitar and vocals...definitely listen to Seven Swans or Michigan. Illinoise! Is fantastic too, but for just simple guitar and vocals, you have to listen to those two.

Sufjan Stevens - To Be Alone With You + LYRICS - YouTube

Sufjan Stevens - Lyrics - For the Widows in Paradise, for the Fatherless in Ypsilanti - YouTube

I appreciate that feedback guys. I'll check those out.

i'm the last person in the world to offer any good opinion of Sufjan, since i only have Illinoise

but i loved it

Thank you for introducing me to Elliott Smith.

Personally I love the Age of Adz, but I wouldn't recommend it first to anyone either.

Age of Adz is great in my book.

It's a good album on it's own, but with the expectations I had upon listen, it was disappointing. Now that I know it isn't meant for a starter album, I can probably give it another listen and enjoy it.

Hey, out of curiosity, what movie is your avatar from? Some sort of mockumentary I presume?

I think he was talking about the goofl11. whose avatar is a poster for The Big Lebowski, which is a coen brothers comedy. except the actors are replaced with famous musicians and the supporting cast is changed as well.

Just in internet joke image i beleive.

Urban posted a link to a site that had some great movie posters done as if they were in the 40's/50's/70's etc. That was my favourite.
