Really?!?  Ok.  I'll get it in a bit, listen to it when I get back to work and let you know what I think.  I'm not even sure what kind of music he did.

I have it, it's not bad but not a classic in my ears. Loads of people love it though.

Well I liked that Hallelujah song, so I'm guessing the rest will be in a similar styley.

I've got a bit of vinyl by his pappa Tim Buckley.....who was a bit of an angst laden junkie, but hey we all go through these phases.

   You know the kind of thing, pull a bird back to yours who's of an artistic nature, whack a bit of Timbo on, to reveal you have a sensitive side , bit of mood enhancer and you're in.

Needless to say I haven't played any of it for years.

It's a classic, not amongst my favourites personally but it's an excellent album. Jeff Buckley has an incredible voice.

Grace is not bad and eternal life but most of them build a bit too slowly for me needs some more energy. If you like hallelujah you'll probably like it though.

What's this chap all about then? What genre would he fall into?

Suicide rock, crossed with albanian rap.

Think he's pretty chilled out.

yeh hallejuah was decent. most people already know it cause it was on Shrek!

Hallelujah was originally by Leonard Cohen, so the song on Shrek was a horrible cover of a Cohen song not Jeff Buckley.

I don't remember it being on Shrek, heard it on The OC tho (jeff buckley version I think) then I heard it again in Starbucks last week, so I thought I'd check it out.

Nice mellow album.

Hallelujah was sung by randy travis i think on the film but on the shrek soundtrack had a version by rufas wainwright! go figure!  buckley's grace inspired so many bands,coldplay,muse,radiohead,travis and many more! he has something like a 9 octave vocal range which is fucking amazing and of course he got this from his dad who he never really knew!
