Jeff Buckley

















I am still surprised to learn that some people still don't know who Jeff Buckley is. I guess it figures when he only completed one album before he met his untimely death. Grace is definitely an album that needs listening to, it's so beautifully crafted, and his vocals are simply angelic, especially on Lilac Wine and Hallelujah. Other oustanding tracks are Grace, Dream Brother and Lover, You Should've Come Over. He's also an enigmatic performer. I was priviledged enough to see him twice back in the 90's - at The Garage, and LA2. Bless his beautiful soul.
