"Great Ghosts" by Phil Elvrum

Song: Great Ghosts (live in Japan)
Artist: Phil Elvrum
Album: Live in Japan
Also try:  Panda Bear, Bill Callahan, Mountain Goats, Bonnie 'Prince' Billy
Commentary: Maybe I'm susceptible to solo voice and acoustic guitar, but Phil Elvrum pulls me right in here. He always manages to evoke an individual's intensely personal struggle with immense forces, even if the meaning of every lyric is not transparent. Phil is a remarkable artist with an impressive oeuvre with the Microphones and Mt. Eerie. I figured it was okay to post him again, after 6 years.
