JEFF BUCKLEYSince he was the son of cult songwriter Tim Buckley, Jeff Buckley faced more expectations
and pre-conceived notions than most singer/songwriters. Perhaps it wasn't surprising that Jeff Buckley's music
was related to his father's by only the thinnest of margins. Buckley's voice was grand and sweeping,
which fit with the mock-operatic grandeur of his Van Morrison-meets-Led Zeppelin music.
His audacious debut Grace made him one of the most popular alternative artists of the '90s,
accentuated by his early and tragic death in 1997, and his cover of Leonard Cohen's "Hallelujah"
virtually redefined the song for a modern audience

SLEEVE VG+ but (please, see pictures and read above description)
Jeff Buckley resented being called a folk singer, but he made his name playing solo sets like this one on the New York coffee circuit.
Sony released this live EP before his first fully produced rock album, Grace, perhaps to attract attention to the raw power
of Buckley's greatest gift, his voice. These four songs certainly accomplished that end. Buckley hurdles seemingly
unreachable octaves, suspends notes for what seems like minutes, and belts out his falsetto without a scintilla of restraint.
That's a positive inasmuch as it allowed him to show off his considerable talent; it's a negative when it sounded
like he was showing off. But his ten-minute cover of Van Morrison's "The Way Young Lovers Do" is a tour de force
of strumming and scatting, and his acoustic "Eternal Life" has an electricity
that is paradoxically lacking on the plugged-in album version...(AllMusic)
