Jeff Buckley only released one album before he died ten years ago today but it was fantastic. Probably one of the best of the last 15 years. It's sad to think of the music the world has missed out on.
I've heard many versions of this classic Leonard Cohen song, from Dylan to Rufus Wainwright to John Cale to U2, but none are as good as Jeff Buckley's. Including the original. I don't know if this live version is as good as the the album track but it is still plenty haunting. If you don't already own "Grace" buy it today. You will not be disappointed.
Labels: Jeff Buckley, music
Buckley's is the definitive version. I think the studio version is more focused that this but it's still an incredible performance.
