Elliott Smith - Oh Well, Okay | live @ Maxwell's aug.12.98 (16)

a live performance of this song (awesome) taken from a bootleg which is very rare, and not easier to find in internet (no it's not, duh. but that's ok).
- inclueded an Elliott's chat with the audience.
Enjoy it.

One of the subtler key changes you'll hear, sounds so natural. Brilliant songwriter.

[@pr00de]

It's such an odd move, modulating down a step. But it's so he can sing it an octave up. Really cool.

[@ianbrowning2190]

@@pr00de maybe inspired by the key change in the beatles' penny lane

When he starts playing with his magic voice, everybody in the audience just shuts up. Such a great song, it makes me cry every time. Thank you Alyne for sharing it.

[@alexander_dean]

He knew what he was going to play the entire time. hah.

[@johnlocke8882]

I read somewhere that he’s just buying time to think of what he wants, and usually gives up and goes with the first or last suggestion

[@NoGood2007]

This is by far 'one of ' the best live recording by Elliott I've heard. Thanks for the Up.

[@salmonfishandships]

[@spliggity]

amazing, as always

[@aotwtelevision]

very nice, thanks :)

[@budgettaxi1754]

I wouldn't doubt that the lady that yelled "Free Bird" was a friend or fan being silly or jibing him. He seemed to be quite comfortable and in sync with that crowd hence the beautiful performance. I could be wrong and she may have been serious, we'll probably never know.

[@reeceyburt2211]

thats nice :)

[@pwnytown8418]

If you get a feeling next time you see me,
Do me a favor and let me know
Because it's hard to tell
It's hard to say
Oh well, OK.. 😊

[@locokooks]
