Advantages: Powerful song structure and the voice of an angel. Disadvantages: Eventually, it comes to an end.
It was the song 'Hallelujah' (a cover of a Leonard Cohen song / poem) that originally got me into Jeff Buckley. Since then, I have musically fallen in love with all of Jeff's music.
'Grace' was the only studio album brought out by Jeff himself, who was the only son of cult folk singer / songwriter Tim Buckley.

The only track this CD is missing which should not have been overlooked is Best of Me! If you buy this CD, be sure to get your hands on Best of Me somehow, download it, buy the single, whatever - you should own it. ...
