jeff buckley’s “grace”

The only studio recording he released while alive dropped 30 years ago today. “So Real” is, to my mind, everything that’s so iconic about that album; linked here. “I love you/but I’m afraid to love you.” 💔 PS: Here's my funny Jeff Buckley story, in a nutshell: a bunch of us were out slumming it on the Lower East side and stumbling around drunk near St. Mark's when we barged into this place we'd never been before. A skinny kid in a t-shirt playing Dylan, Van Morrison and Edith Piaf (!) covers was by himself at the front of the small-ish room with a beat up Telecaster soaked in reverb. We grabbed some Rolling Rocks, wondered why a bunch of model-looking people were in attendance, and then split down the block to catch some random band at CBGBs. (This was 1993, ha) Turns out we had inadvertently wandered into Sin-E' where Jeff was recording tracks for the live EP that became "Live at Sin-E'." WTF did we know. We were idiots and had no clue.

LISTENING TO…

Grace by Jeff Buckley — it’s one of my favourite albums oat, but i will say that in terms of jeff and his music, My Sweetheart the Drunk is his best album.
— rating: ★★★★★ — favourite track: it’s constantly changing, but as of right now, i would say Last Goodbye, the album’s second single, originally titled Unforgiven which can be heard on Live at Sin-é (Legacy Edition).

Album log #2: The velvet underground - white light/white heat (1968)

The unbelievably weird album from experimental rock pioneers The Velvet Underground. Seriously, it’s weird. And a tough listen. But with that comes some seriously genius avant-garde noise rock jams and is a total trip from start to finish.
9.5/10
