Referring to TIm as a "folk singer" leaves out most of his singing/songwriting career. He evolved through several stages of avant garde, jazz, and funk. He was good at them all.
I'm 30 and have listened to Buckley since I was 18. Whenever I listen to Last Goodbye I feel like a teenager again. He always makes me feel eternally young
I don’t go by his example. He left even before I was born. His only influence, is the one of his absence. I was the man of the house, I never missed him. I only met him once, a little while before his death, and then I knew that I missed him. It would have been nice to grow up with a real father and mother that got along swell. But I’ve survived. - Jeff Buckley ♥ ♥ ♥
Saw Tim Buckley in 1969 at the Troubadour in West Los Angeles. I’m sure his son had a great voice,but the very first moment I heard Tim Buckley sing I heard the voice of an angel! I was so moved! May both RIP
+Janet Burke Jeff was a man....not angel...angels are always carry out God’s instructions and God uses them to assist and protect his loyal servants on earth...But to him...to Jeff ..was God-given musical talent much more than to mass others ..and how he said .."music is my mother ,my father...." ,"But music seems to me to be the most closely identified with my soul. I mean, I feel that it’s the best for me. It just gets into the bloodstream so quickly, for no reason at all. You can close your heart, and you can sleep even with your eyes closed, but you can never close your ears."...he breathed through his music...and thanks to it ,we can enjoy the beauty of it...is not it?
+Sue DeSimone The Bible was not written that people will go to heaven after death...Angels are invisible, powerful servants of God who reside in the spirit realm. Their existence is independent of that of humans. Angels are spirits created by God. The Bible says: “Let [the angels] praise the name of Jehovah; for he himself commanded, and they were created.”-Psalm 148:2, 5.The Bible shows that the angels were created long before humans....go please on website jw.org ,there you can find answers ....The Bible shows that the hope for most humans who have died is to be resurrected. The vast majority of the dead are to be raised to life as humans on a paradise earth.-Luke 23:43; John 5:28....hope to meet him
In the 60's, I lived in a small town on the tip of Cape Cod. When you walked past the cottages and apartments, you could hear the soundtrack of the day, drifting from the windows. Tim Buckley was often heard. Paul Simon and the Incredible String Band were also favorites. What a great time!
The difference between listening to Buckley and Simon was that Simon's songs went somewhwre, he was not on an ego trip to hear how many octaves he could sing. The same with Jeff, they father and son were virtuosos, but in rock music, it's not just a matter of virtuosity.
Jim Burrows Do you know that Tim Buckley did experimental albums that pissed of his fans? So he wasn't exactly trying to hit high notes all the time. Ego trip? Maybe he was an egomaniac, but Simon is as much of an egomaniac - pretty much everyone that makes it in music business is.
+Ilya S yeah, and Paul Simon blatantly ripped off Bert Jansch's arrangement of Scarborough Fair. Simon asked him how he played it, so Bert graciously taught him, then the prick went and recorded Jansch's arrangement shortly after. Dick move!
Jeff didn't contact them to play tims tribute concert, they contacted Jeff and he turned it down at first, but ended up doing it anyway. That's what Jeff said in an interview anyway.
“Music is endless and even though I've heard a whole bunch of music from so many different places and fallen in love countless times with all kinds of different music.There's still something about it, I guess it's called Freedom.” - Jeff Buckley
I think they were both equally beautiful artists. There is something to be said about some singers, that ability to sing has to be in the DNA. You can hone in on the talent and sharpen the skill but there is something inherit.
+Shanna Webb What's wonderful about their story his that they where strangers. The father was never there for the son. Yet, they turn out to be so similar... But I think love for music was pure in both of them. Is that simple.
Jeff in an interview here youtube said that Tim Buckley’s father also was known to have a great voice. And it was some kind of Irish heritage trait passed down with the men in that family
This definitely opens up a plethora of biases and opinions on who was better: Tim or Jeff? But I don't think it has to be a choosing game: just appreciate the gift of music that they both gave us! :)
Kinda like JFK & JFK Jr. or Bruce & Brandon Lee with the dying young thing. Very sad. It's extra sad that Jeff died young being that he wasn't even abusing drugs or making babies he had abandoned. Seemed like a decent person all around. R.I.P. to both.
Jeffs mother was/is beautiful, also she was 🎶 musical, but always says he developed himself, in his own way.Beautiful. It was an awful loss for her to suffer.God Bless her.
They both are amazing and blow my mind. For me Jeff is the best singer I've ever heard and my favourite artist, but his father is right there with him. Incredible talents gone way too soon 💔
Leon Weber I know. I accidentally discovered the connection. when I read how Jeff died and saw how his father wrote Song to the Siren it made me cry. LITERALLY. So damn sad. I had an absentee father too and it is sad.
tragic tragic tragic...I didn't know about this story of Tim Buckley and his son. that poor woman what she's been through nobody can imagine... RIP Tim and Jeff now sailing on the water with the sirens and dolphins....
Something here is simply just not kosher, by any stretch of the imagination. Jeff, you were and are the VERY BEST and I humbly hope from the bottom of my heart that you are indeed reunited with your father in the heavenly realms. If your life was taken by fools within some idiotic sacrificial ritual, those fools may gain profit and stance within their own darkly satanic realms, but they will never EVER own YOUR SOUL nor any aspect of your talent. Perhaps they will gain and have gained in some very banal passing monetary riches. Wish you, the GENIUS Jeff were still here singing with us and praying that you will, if it is meant to be, indeed come again to grace us earthlings very soon in yet another human manifestation. So very honored to have actually met you a few times and love you always and ALL WAYS~!!! FREEDOM, MY BROTHER~!!! FREEDOM AND PEACE~!!!
Sometimes I definitely love Google/RUclips and their tips: I'm just watching Tim Buckley's "Sweet Surrender" nonstop. Then this popped up in my recommendations list. What a tragic story! I can't believe it... (...) :(
Jake Gette, you are so right. My Brother In Law is Legendary Guitarist Hank Garland. I wish this video was more compassionate to Jeff's Mom. But I know how the business is. They are crooks that thrive off of individuals with talent. My condolences to Jeff's dear Mother. Blessings, Amy Garland
Everybody knew Tim Buckley in Australia. Greetings from LA was a great album. But it was the same with Rodriguez and J J Cale, a big hit in Australia, never heard of in the US.
This documentary is insulting to Tim's music. Littered with inaccuracies, and no mention of "Starsailor", which proved that Tim was far more than just a folk singer. That album is still lightyears ahead of most music being released these days. He was a pioneer. Perhaps his son might have headed in an experimental direction had he lived longer, but I'm not too big on Jeff's music personally. And i'm only 22, so don't call me old. lol
This documentary keeps repeating how Jeff was so much better then his father and its very annoying. To say one is better then the other is like a two year old saying "My Daddy is better then your Daddy". Rather childish to say the least. Both were talented from their respective styles of music and the times they lived in. Opinions are like assholes...everyone has one... and this documentary illustrates this in spades.
I agree. Something about it feels very distant and engaged. And also, they mentioned Jeff's "second album" as if it was a polished, finished product as opposed to a skeleton of a release that was never completed due to Jeff's death.
Both had amazing voices. Comparisons are absurd. Each had uncompromising ideas of what they wanted. Reading " Dream Brother" which is about both of them brings them back to life.
Its sad to think how Jeff Buckley passed away less than a month before I was born. I wish he were still with us. I miss Jeff Buckley, man. He has the voice of an angel
@KateCanFly777 Well, he never drove taxi/limo, although he claimed to. His friends revealed that it was just a joke. He wasn't found at the foot of his stairs, either. He was at a friends and got too high, so they took him home and his wife put him to bed. It wasn't all wrong, they just didn't appear to do their research. And beyond that, the presentation of the whole thing is unbelievably cheesy. Both men would shudder if they ever had to see this.
when I was 19, I had a roommate, Barbara Brascher-Olsen whom I had attended junior at Black and Waltrip Sr in Houston, I stayed with her even though I had an apt in Pasadena myself with three male roommates, one a journalist photographer so I had his bedroom of 3 bedrooms) for a couple of months because she was afraid to live alone in her apt in Pasadena, Tx. RIP, She moved on out of state going on to Law College then marrying the Solicitor General Ted Olsen for the USA as of 2011, and was the MSNBC I think spitfire daily commentator who had just put out a book on the Clinton's a week before 9/11/2001, she was killed when her plane crashed into the Pentagon. Anyhoo, Tim's music reached as far as Houston and Pasadena Texas, my roommates had a reel to reel with the Greetings from L.A. and me and Barbie would sing and dance to it all the time and play it at her apartment, in our cars, we loved his musc! He was our Muse and is still mine to this day. I'm a singer-songwriter-musician, guitar, electric and accoustic,12&6 string, blues Hohners too. I live Jeff's music too and do that too. People are amazed by these songs!
I'm sorry, but do the people involved in the making of this film think the general consensus is that Jeff is better than his father? That is certainly not the case. Tim had a voice to die for. One of the most innovative singer-songwriters of all time.
ive heard a few of tim buckley's songs and he is amazing but from what i heard he didnt have the seven octave voice jeff buckley had but they both convey great emotion in their songs , personaly i like jeff better
It is AMAZING how many wrong facts are in this mini doc....it's ridiculous Jeff met his father TWICE Jeff only released ONE completed album Most of all, JEFF WASN'T AN EXACT REPLICA OF HIS FATHER! They were very different artists...
@btsantibanez use your mind, if he died not long after he went swimming, his bodily functions such as his liver and heart would have stopped, and the alcohol wouldn't have been removed from his system. i thought that would pretty obvious, alcohol and substances get removed by the body's liver as a function, if your dead you body cant function to get that stuff out.
i'd have to say, if you read most of Jeffs lyrics, he does not seem like he'd fallen down a spiraling path of drugs. he seemed very humble. that's only my opinion though.
That is NOT how Tim Buckley died! That isn't even close! Primary references being "Dream Brother: Jeff and Tim Buckley" and Wikipedia... He was out partying with friends, at some point he got so fucked up on heroin his friends took him home. His wife Judy questioned them, later he died in bed next to her. He was NOT left on the stairs!
I prefer Jeff Buckley because I prefer his music style (more on Alternative Rock) and the way he moved on stage was great. (see his performance of Kick Out The Jams)
Clean the wax out of your ears, that's a load of bullocks. Listen to Jeff singing Dido's lament or Corpous Christi Carol no way Tim could've done that or Calling you. Jeff's range and his understanding of music far surpassed his father who abandoned him.
I'm surprised they tracked down the guy that gave tim the drugs that he died off of.. and then charged him w 2nd degree murder.. they don't do that anymore
They had to tour b/c they were both in debt. After the tour they owed more than before. All the biographies about these guys are written by the industry. Loaded down with fake PR sounding like the old liner notes. Even Dylan's Chronicles. The music industry is like a lurking vulture. YT comments? All the comments sections about the industry.
@@monilaninetynine3811 Tim did have the better voice though. I've noticed Jeff's vibrato wasn't as strong as Tim's and he couldn't control his voice as good as Tim could. Plus, Tim sung in a lower register impressively well.
Sometimes the program used to upload them flips the video so its a mirrored image. Not sure what was used to upload this video, but I know Photobooth has a habit of doing this.
Ugggh!! This bio is terrible. They got a lot of the Tim facts wrong (or stated rumours as facts) and just played the total cheeseball-drama-part up way too much. The only highlight is seeing Mary talk about them both. Either way, though, thanks for sharing. :)
Not really hallelujah was just one song that made him big, his other great works carried his short but amazing career, Tim was a good artist but never and no where near Jeff. Not to mention folk is way to niche and weird to ever sit comfortably with a huge audience , so jeff definitely did better as well in choosing the genre but that doesn't really matter as much.
@@JG-rp8pr Yeah, I agree it doesn't really matter, but one thing is for sure, I blame Jeff Buckley for destroying a great song in Hallelujah. Every no talent clown with a mic is now adding their rendition of the song. If there ever was a true example of the meaning of blasphemy this is it.
@@wovokanarchy I love jeff buckleys rendition of hallelujah and I personally prefer it over cohen with him coming in second. Though everybody elses cover is complete and actual garbage
@@wovokanarchy I'm sorry but do you have a problem with Jeff Buckleybecause I wonder why you keep on trying to discredit him? While I do like John Cales rendition of hallelujah, I do not see any influence of Cale on Jeff's cover especially since the songs are both performed differently and even use different instruments, Leonard and Jeff's version of the songs are both performed relatively the same, they start off soft and slow in the beginning then climax at around the end, middle, and chorus always returning to soft and slow at each verse. John Cale doesn't really do this, I'd say that John Cale actually laid down the foundations and structure of how most people will cover the song today, more of a bright and hopeful ballad rather then one that is emotional and painful and somewhat hopeful. This is why I consider Jeff Buckley to be the best Buckley and one of the best artists of all time.
Sad but reality that seeks the most who lives their lives omn the edge but unrecognized by an act for seeking the solace care to be to depart would be a cornestone who to seek Jesus christ help
Referring to TIm as a "folk singer" leaves out most of his singing/songwriting career. He evolved through several stages of avant garde, jazz, and funk. He was good at them all.
He was a mega talent, but sadly, music is a business where artists are usually forced to focus on me genre to sell albums.
Well, back then, that's how the business worked. Now, they solely survive on performances, since music is sadly given away for free...
I'm 30 and have listened to Buckley since I was 18. Whenever I listen to Last Goodbye I feel like a teenager again. He always makes me feel eternally young
Your 38 now
Your 40 now
What an incredibly strong beautiful and loving woman. To have loved and lost these two astonishing men. My heart is broken

The last words of Mary (Jeff’s mother) in this video are so heartbreakingly beautiful. No wonder why Jeff was so wise for his young age… 💖
I think they were both equally beautiful artists. There is something to be said about some singers, that ability to sing has to be in the DNA. You can hone in on the talent and sharpen the skill but there is something inherit.

ddjdd wfgggb I honestly don’t know why I’m not just dropping auto tuned ramblings over a mediocre beat and making money. Lol

They were both extraordinarily talented but it was a personal choice for many and jeff blew my mind
I agree. Still yet to hear Starsailor but I have Lorca and the title track proved he was a bona fide genius.
Jeff never inherited anything.He was completely self made❤
This documentary keeps repeating how Jeff was so much better then his father and its very annoying. To say one is better then the other is like a two year old saying "My Daddy is better then your Daddy". Rather childish to say the least. Both were talented from their respective styles of music and the times they lived in.
Opinions are like assholes...everyone has one... and this documentary illustrates this in spades.
Had to log in to like this comment.
But he was better
John Blessing he was.. And I'm pretty sure that it's everyone's opinion.
John Blessing hmmmm no.. Im sure the majority will pick Jeff Buckley. He is the greatest voice in music history.
Jeff Buckley is the best.
Voces maravillosas!♥
Scary he looked exactly like his young son when he was young
I agree. Something about it feels very distant and engaged. And also, they mentioned Jeff's "second album" as if it was a polished, finished product as opposed to a skeleton of a release that was never completed due to Jeff's death.
here's to having the courage to live who you are. PS music such as Jeffs helps x0x
unforgettable
Both had amazing voices. Comparisons are absurd. Each had uncompromising ideas of what they wanted. Reading " Dream Brother" which is about both of them brings them back to life.
Its sad to think how Jeff Buckley passed away less than a month before I was born. I wish he were still with us. I miss Jeff Buckley, man. He has the voice of an angel

I almost cried when I found out Jeff wasn't alive:(.............
A lot of inaccuracies in this piece - kind of lazy journalism
So many amazing beings have passed.there must be a gathering of them all somewhere in the ethos.makes you look forward to following them
They asked Jeff to come play, Jeff never asked them. As a matter of fact Jeff had to get back to them think a little on it.
First of all, Tim released nine studio albums...not seven. And I don't think that Jeff's mom knows what "inherited" means.
that last part about understanding each other now is ridiculous. Why would they understand each other after death when they had only met once.
when I was 19, I had a roommate, Barbara Brascher-Olsen whom I had attended junior at Black and Waltrip Sr in Houston, I stayed with her even though I had an apt in Pasadena myself with three male roommates, one a journalist photographer so I had his bedroom of 3 bedrooms) for a couple of months because she was afraid to live alone in her apt in Pasadena, Tx.

this woman lost his huband and the she lost her son....., wtf
TELIO Reminds me of the Lees--Bruce and Brandon.
I'm sorry, but do the people involved in the making of this film think the general consensus is that Jeff is better than his father? That is certainly not the case. Tim had a voice to die for. One of the most innovative singer-songwriters of all time.
ive heard a few of tim buckley's songs and he is amazing but from what i heard he didnt have the seven octave voice jeff buckley had but they both convey great emotion in their songs , personaly i like jeff better
Tim was misogynist as hell, so that's immediately alienating 50% of his audience.
But comparing him to Jeff is to compare McCartney to Hendrix.
I would strongly disagree with you that Tim's voice was better than Jeff's voice. Not even on Tim's best day was he better than Jeff!!!!
I am calm. And you're right, it is an opinion and I'm allowed to have one too.
Baloney, Jeff was far more gifted, driven, real he didn't approach music the same as his father. Jeff was far more superior in every way.
tim was great but jeff was tremendous
what is wonderful is that the name Buckley can be associated with such wonderful vibes, so we can forget about Wm. F. Buckley LOL.
its worth it for the clips and pics but alot is inaccurate info wise .love them both so so much
.
It is Jeff in that one. You can see that is a pic of Mary when she's older, not when she was with Tim. The editor made that part sort of confusing.
No need for yelling, honey, we got your point
why is all the text backward, as if this was recorded in a mirror reflection playing from a tv screen?
i heard once that THE voice in the family was jeff's granpa!
It is AMAZING how many wrong facts are in this mini doc....it's ridiculous
Jeff met his father TWICE
Jeff only released ONE completed album
Most of all, JEFF WASN'T AN EXACT REPLICA OF HIS FATHER! They were very different artists...
@btsantibanez use your mind, if he died not long after he went swimming, his bodily functions such as his liver and heart would have stopped, and the alcohol wouldn't have been removed from his system. i thought that would pretty obvious, alcohol and substances get removed by the body's liver as a function, if your dead you body cant function to get that stuff out.
i'd have to say, if you read most of Jeffs lyrics, he does not seem like he'd fallen down a spiraling path of drugs. he seemed very humble. that's only my opinion though.

Is it possible to dabble in heroine?
Or to "experiment" with it

True!
It´s a bit anoying, that the recording is mirrow flipped.
You nearly think the titles are written in rusian.
good point although i have some issues with w.f. lol.
@phillipmart
Yeah he did
dank je
@TheNancyRotten check my last video's description, it works against WMG ;) cheers!
Tim had the better voice but Jeff was the better musician
I don't know about that
@@monilaninetynine3811 Tim did have the better voice though. I've noticed Jeff's vibrato wasn't as strong as Tim's and he couldn't control his voice as good as Tim could. Plus, Tim sung in a lower register impressively well.
jeff had the better singing tone :)
For a man that didn't reach the age of 29 Tim's face wrinkles makes him shockingly look in the end of his 30.
What?
karaokegang What I wrote.
To much rinkles for a not even 30 years old man.
Maybe it acuses the drug abuse.
karaokegang He looked older man!
@andpyramids What a shame! What information was false, and what's the truth?
"looked like his father but sounded even better"...No prettier than his father yes, great singer yes but not better singer than his father..
He reminds me of Bob Dylan
Yea this doc is inaccurate, why the f do it that way? Wasn't it Rebecca Moore that contacted Jeff for the St. Anne's tribute show?
i really don't think that is going to cover anyone's butt as far as copyrights LOL. but it's an interesting attempt!
Why is all the type backwards ??
Sometimes the program used to upload them flips the video so its a mirrored image. Not sure what was used to upload this video, but I know Photobooth has a habit of doing this.
+herpderpmonkey I'm glad people have figured this out!
Oh jeff
Tim gave birth to his clone! This is sad! Unless Jeff had any children, this family legacy ended with jeff😢
😭💔
No dolphins in the Mississippi river, may be that was the problem. They would Jeff saved him....
jane calm down honey you'll hurt yoursef
At 7:00 the guy is having a very strange smile...:-( I would not like to have him for manager...:-( What about you?
It's a shame that his wife didn't get him some help or take him to ER or Urgent care if he really looked that bad.
he head to know his ftaher better, and thast the fauslt of his mother
You don't know that!
jeff must be kicking himself for dying! he'd hate this bullshit... (bar the mary guibert stuff)
Ugggh!! This bio is terrible. They got a lot of the Tim facts wrong (or stated rumours as facts) and just played the total cheeseball-drama-part up way too much. The only highlight is seeing Mary talk about them both.
Either way, though, thanks for sharing. :)
@btsantibanez lol
Jeff Buckley can thank Mr. Leonard Cohen. Tim Buckley can thank his own songwriting ability.
Not really hallelujah was just one song that made him big, his other great works carried his short but amazing career, Tim was a good artist but never and no where near Jeff. Not to mention folk is way to niche and weird to ever sit comfortably with a huge audience , so jeff definitely did better as well in choosing the genre but that doesn't really matter as much.
@@JG-rp8pr Yeah, I agree it doesn't really matter, but one thing is for sure, I blame Jeff Buckley for destroying a great song in Hallelujah. Every no talent clown with a mic is now adding their rendition of the song. If there ever was a true example of the meaning of blasphemy this is it.
@@wovokanarchy I love jeff buckleys rendition of hallelujah and I personally prefer it over cohen with him coming in second. Though everybody elses cover is complete and actual garbage
@@JG-rp8pr Although Jeff Buckley nicked John Cale's rendition from I'm Your Fan album. He wasn't original.
@@wovokanarchy I'm sorry but do you have a problem with Jeff Buckleybecause I wonder why you keep on trying to discredit him? While I do like John Cales rendition of hallelujah, I do not see any influence of Cale on Jeff's cover especially since the songs are both performed differently and even use different instruments, Leonard and Jeff's version of the songs are both performed relatively the same, they start off soft and slow in the beginning then climax at around the end, middle, and chorus always returning to soft and slow at each verse. John Cale doesn't really do this, I'd say that John Cale actually laid down the foundations and structure of how most people will cover the song today, more of a bright and hopeful ballad rather then one that is emotional and painful and somewhat hopeful. This is why I consider Jeff Buckley to be the best Buckley and one of the best artists of all time.
Sad but reality that seeks the most who lives their lives omn the edge but unrecognized by an act for seeking the solace care to be to depart would be a cornestone who to seek Jesus christ help
Good grief, the video SHOULD be backward -- the whole damned thing's backward! What a load of crap! This ought to be taken down.
Jeff buckley is good looking then his father
There are major false facts in this. WOW didn't the writers do their research??
