I recently did a deep dive (pardon the pun) into Jeff Buckley. I wanted to know everything about him, his tragic death, and most importantly his complete library of recoded music. I listened to Grace about 15 times in complete depth and detail, rewinding parts of songs, interpreting lyrics etc.
I have come to the conclusion that it may just be the greatest album I have ever heard. His songwriting, voice and supporting band were nothing short of amazing. Such a tremendous talent that was taken at age 30, so, so very young.
If you are not familiar with him, I urge you to listen to Grace a few times through, without interruption, and really soak in the songs and music.
You will not be let down.

Yes, one of the greatest albums ever. Remember buying it when it came out. And was just blown away.

He is another one that died way to soon, and his cover of Hallelujah maybe one of the greatest cover's of all time.

truly a great record...

It really is an incredible album. "Mojo Pin" might be my favorite track, but it's a tough call.
