Re: elliot smith

As a big proponent of Elliott Smith, I'd love to hear more about
Bachmanin's argument.  I don't have "XO" here with me right now, so I
can't listen to figure it out - is it just because it has a Yiddish title?
Does he know whether or not Smith is Jewish, really? (I love indie rock
and Jewish music, but never thought about them overlapping...)
