JEFF BUCKLEY: News

Recorded for Radio Broadcast in New York & Boston. Many music critics of the day were not only intrigued but enamoured by Jeff Buckley when his musical career began to take off in the early nineties. Jeff Buckley born in California in 1966 and as the name suggests, he was the son of legendary singer, composer and guitarist, Tim Buckley, hence the early fascination with his artistic potential. Appearing on the world stage in 1994 with the critically well received album, Grace Jeff Buckley was poised to become a successful artist through the nineties and into the new millennium. However this sadly never happened as he would die in the spring of 1997 before fully realising his potential and only a half finished second album which was subsequently released posthumously.

This double album of radio broadcasts contains a wide and eclectic range of songs and performances, including songs that would appear on Grace. Drawn from broadcasts both before and after Grace, these performances show another side to Jeff Buckley. The songs featured here include Hallelujah, a song now strongly identified with Jeff Buckley and many covers of songs by Bob Dylan, Van Morrison and Elton John. More importantly for the first time this release includes the full unedited performance from WMFU at Upsala College on the 11th October 1993. •This package contains  Rare Radio Broadcasts a d performances  from singer song writer Jeff Buckley •Includes complete unedited Radio performance  from October 1992 •Includes rarely heard songs and cover versions •Rarely Seen Photographs •Liner notes by Broadcaster/Author Jon Kirkman.
