THE JEFF BUCKLEY THREAD.

[josh85]

i've not been on here for long so there might have been one of these already but there deserves to be another. you guys and gals are all gnr fans so i know you've got taste in music which clearly means there are some other jeff buckley fans here.

i think the man was awsome, possibly my favourate singer of all time. he's definately joint top place with jimi hendrex in my list of artists or bands i wish i'd seen.

[ClintroN]

Buckly rocks mate, im a big fan!!

Sad as story but, he would have had some awsome albums under his belt, but what we have kix arse!!

Fav song - Nightmares By The Sea!!

RIP JB!!

[BA]

lover you should have come over.

[Thorazine Shuffle]

Grace has to be in my top five all time albums.  Sketches for My Sweetheart the Drunk show that if he lived, he would of been one of the all-time greats.  Even more-so than he is considered now.

[BA]

have you heard the song forget her.
i love that song even though it was never done properly.
what a crying shame.

what a crying shame.

yeah, awesome song can't believe it wasn't on grace.

[josh85]

i totally agree, grace is awsome, i'd probably put it in my top 3 albums. but the thing which makes him stand out was the intensity of his live shows. obviously i never got to see him live but i've got all of his live cd's and his dvd and they're all awsome and all differant. what will you say on the live a'olympia album is fucking amazing!

[jimmythegent]

one of my all time favs - grace is a milestone album

I dont use the word loosley or too liberally, but genius is approriate for Buckley I feel.

I think he would have continued to make remarkable music and its one of the great tradgedys that he passed so quickly. In fact i can't think of a bigger loss to the music world when considering how little he actually left behind

His version of Halleulujah off Grace is perfection, just sublime, as a vocalist he was virtually without peer

[Chief]

one of the best voices ever... what a tragedy!!!!!!!
but at least he left us with some magic.


if anyone wants to hear another powerful vocalist who has a big range like jeff check out the band OURS:
