About this item

"Pretty (Ugly Before) b/w A Distorted Reality Is Now A Necessity To Be Free" holds the distinction of being the last recording by Elliott Smith to be released while he was still alive. Originally released as a single in August 2003, the songs were a part of the recording sessions that would ultimately yield the acclaimed, posthumous album "From A Basement On The Hill." The two songs serve as a powerful reminder of why Smith became the voice for a dejected generation. Track Listing: 1. Pretty (Ugly Before) 2. A Distorted Reality Is Now A Necessity To Be Free
