A great telling of the story. I first heard of Jeff Buckley in the early 90's from my drummer friend who heard him play live on the radio. His version of Halleluia is the benchmark for that song.
Thank you❤ To me Tim and Jeff Buckley were the best singers who have ever emerged rock scene. Their deaths were shock to me, both. The real starsailors, sailing uncharted worlds of music, vocal heavens..Like two angels, too talented, fragile for this world. How beautifully you tell his story.❤
@kalervolle How correct you are about Tim Buckley and Jeff Buckley. When Tim’s recordings were first released we all knew that someone special had arrived. But when ‘Hello and Goodbye’ appeared everyone knew that he had few equals-only Bob Dylan and Leonard Cohen could be considered as being in the same league. Special attention should be paid to Tim’s extraordinary album, ‘Blue Afternoon’. A generation hence Tim’s son Jeff took, unknowingly, a Cohen song from the latter’s ‘Various Positions’ release and covered one of its several great songs. From that moment forward “Hallelujah” took on a life of its own. I would have loved to experience Jeff’s interpretation of another masterpiece from ‘Various Positions’, “Night Comes On” which Jeff perhaps never heard.
@robertshapiro3733 thank you! So true. Lenny' s and Jeffs' collaboration could have been a match made in heaven. I came into Tim' s music in a hard way Starsailor. As a music fan it was too long jump at first, but I remember how I suddenly found its brilliance and beauty..after that no music had been unfamiliar to me.💖
I'm primarily a stoic person by nature, but I must admit, I was getting emotional at times as you were sharing JB's story. I felt vindicated at the end when you shared that you had to fight off crying while filming the video, and did cry while writing up your script for this episode 🥲 Great work on this episode, and as always, keep up the good work 😊
I own a small, eclectic record collection and a reasonable mid-tier system. One of my cherished vinyls is the Jeff Buckley album "Grace". The best thing about it, besides the incomparable atmosphere and emotional authenticity, is that there is nothing else quite like it in the repertoire. The work always delivers and appears timeless. This distinction seems to arise out of his individuality as a person and an artist. Something from beyond this ordinary world is felt to be present. If he's "on the spectrum" then thank goodness there is a spectrum. I like citing Divine Music Intervention especially in this case. His life history is odd and there is a message there. Thanks for the great reporting. Your account of the St. Ann's concert was chilling and exhilarating.
This video confirmed a hunch I had. Last Goodbye is a Jeff Buckley song I love. I've always gotten a Led Zeppelin vibe from it. Now I know it was intentional.
I saw Jeff play at St. Ann's solo. I had no idea of the significance of the place for him. In 1998, I saw Martha Wainwright there and shook Rufus's hand, by coincidence.
A Renaissance soul, so often misunderstood and whose broad talents cannot be boxed in. Jeff and Tim both echo one another in such a haunting, exquisite, painful way, with voices so amazing in range and depth, their extraordinary physical similarity, and tragic endings. Precious, brief lights, shining on us forever.
Thank you for all the work and love you put into the stories you give to us your audience. I wish I could give you financial support to your Craft. Your research is awesome, keep up the excellent work!
I would like to say I enjoy your stories very much. They have a refreshing and interesting point of view. It is also nice to hear from someone that loves God and Country and believes in “Divine Intervention.” I love your warmth and sincerity, your facial expressions and voice inflection are so natural. I was wondering if you ever go back and check out comments left on previous posts long after you have posted them. I'm late to the party, but I have watch all your posted videos on RUclips. I have commented on some of them. I think that you might be particular interested on my take on “Did Artimus Pyle Lie...” I explain how both the Farm and Artimus could be right about Artimus being shot, at least from each person point of view.
There were 2 different artists that I recently discovered that are more popular now,....then when they were alive. One is Nick Drake,....the other is Jeff Buckley .
I fell asleep about. 2/3 of thid story/presentation. It wss early on Christmas Day Morn and I was already huped up on huggs withvold friends avery bumpy skeigh ride through the surprisingly silent streets of Bethlehem Aotearoa. and m😅re fruit sugars and hastily eaten Night Before Christmas Dinnerz than my avoid diabetes diet had prepared me for…. So not your fault clear-voiced presenter; no blame reallly
interesting and sad. I have to comment about the session musicians you may have chose a better way to say what you were getting at. please understand to be a session musician you have to be an ace and many don't want to be a star.they've seen what the lifestyle can do. sad case in point.
This song by L.C. is mocking people from the Bible who fell from grace!!! it is not a great song. Just because he says Halleluyah in it people think it is a song praises YAH. Far from the truth.
I think being a session musician is pretty extraordinary…

Thanks for this story, we opened for Jeff&band in cincinnati..he was just a sweet guy with an injured hand who still played on..,
I'm lost for words, except love and gratitude.

Thank you so so much!! I will go back and check that video now that you mention that! ❤️🤍
There were 2 different artists that I recently discovered that are more popular now,....then when they were alive. One is Nick Drake,....the other is Jeff Buckley .
Nick Cave is alive and well.
Sorry to upset your mojo.
@@LeonFelixRusso I stand corrected, ..I meant Nick Drake.
Strike of Lightning!!! Right now!
...like his father...jeff was the real deal........THE REAL DEAL.....
that was .. so real (:
With all the people using drugs, you can't say it in the video? Crazy. Great video. Thanks.
YT will demonetise videos discussing drug usage.
👍
Will & Brecht have a Doors connection. Listen to and check out the "Whiskey Bar by the Doors in the first album.!
I should like this song but I never have.

Weills and Brecht
To me, k.d. lang's version has no equal. I'm surprised she is not even mentioned.
