red house painters SONGS FOR A BLUE GUITAR (1996)

the covers are fantastic imo

of the originals i'll take trailways over make like paper

narrowly

can’t listen to this record again but bc i prefer the re-recorded “have you forgotten” on the vanilla sky soundtrack, i’m voting for the title track

All Mixed Up all day long. About the only Kozelek thing I’ll listen to anymore other than his John Denver tribute song.

title track even though it is basically just 'fade into you'

two years ago i was feeling really sad and masochistic around my birthday so i went through the rhp and skm records up to and including admiral fell promises. i succeeded in making myself more depressed, and confirming that i can never quite let go of rollercoaster bc that record accesses something that other albums don't, but also this is sort of easily my least favorite record of his in the rhp run. which is crazy because it's awesome and beautiful

Automatic thread bump. This poll is closing tomorrow.

trailways is devastating. few songs have had me bawling like that before

Automatic thread bump. This poll's results are now in.

I should go visit Priest Alley ("Priest St")

didn't vote for it but i really like that take on 'silly love songs'
