- TonyAn absolute classic and a must-own vinylThis is an absolute classic and a must-own on vinyl.
Jeff Buckley’s Grace is flawless — emotional, powerful, and timeless. Every track hits, from the quiet, intimate moments to the soaring highs. It’s one of those records that never gets old and only gets better with time.
The vinyl quality is excellent: clean pressing, great dynamics, and a warm, detailed sound that really lets the music breathe. It does the album full justice. Incredible music, great pressing, and an essential record for any collection. - Ronald D. MorleyA great voice silenced too soonThis man did indeed die too young, tragically, he drowned in a swimming accident shortly after this album was released. But, this one work, is so transcendent that it deserves a place in the collection of anyone who truly loves music and understands its ability to move one's soul and emotions beyond the mundane life that one ordinarily lives. Every song on this album is a true gem which becomes more beautiful with each listening, as one is able to hear it more clearly, applying the jewelers loupe of one's ears to catch each nuance.
I hardly know where to begin, so I'll start with the song that is my favorite on this album: a song which is rapidly becoming one of my favorites of all the music I've ever listened to - 'Hallelujah', written by Leonerd Cohen some time ago. I first heard this tune as part of the soundtrack of 'The Lord of War' The opening sound one hears is of Jeff sighing deeply before starting to sing with only an unaccompanied acoustic guitar melody that can only be described as haunting in its simplicity. The first words of the song:
Well, I heard there was a secret chord
That David played and it pleased the LORD
But, you don't really care for music, do ya?
Well, it goes like this, the fourth, the fifth
The minor fall and the major lift
The baffled King composing, Hallelujah
Hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah
The religious references simply drip from this song as the acoustic guitar continues to echo in the background.
From its overtly religious beginning the song moves into the story of a broken relationship with a lover who meant more than anyone in the singer's life. The heartbreak is so evident that he who can listen to this song without shedding at least a tear or two has no humanity left within him:
Well, baby I've been here before
I've seen this room and I've walked this floor
Ya know, I used to live alone before I knew ya
And I've seen your flag on the marble arch
Our love is not a victory march
It's a cold and it's a broken hallelujah
Hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah
Well, there was a time when you let me know
What's really going on below
But now you never show that do me. Do ya?
But remember when I moved in you
And the holy dove was moving, too
and every breath we drew was hallelujah
Hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah
Maybe there's a God above
But, all I've ever learned from love
was how to shoot somebody who outdrew ya
And it's not a cry that you hear at night
It's not somebody who's seen the light
It's a cold and it's a broken hallelujah
Hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah
Hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah
Hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah
This album is worth the price simply for this one song. But, the thing is that there are no weak songs on this CD, making it a bargain at any price. Beyond that, though, this is the type of thoughtful, caring, and insightful music upon which no price can really be placed: it is priceless, timeless. Jeff Buckley obviously made this album for the sheer love of his art. The craftsmanship and effort of the making shows through every note and line, every word, and every thought. - DeftkevvGrace album CDLove this album. Came with out any damage.
- Steven HaaralaQuestionsWhat else needs to be said about Jeff Buckley's recording of Leonard Cohen's "Hallelujah"? Compelling lyrics, dramatic melody, outstanding vocal. That territory has been covered. But last year, an American Idol contestant sang it, and the Earth moved. All of a sudden, everyone remembered, or discovered, who Jeff Buckley was. But what about the rest of the album? I wasn't sure, but I got a clue when, this year, Adam Lambert's riveting Idol performance of "Ring Of Fire" was described as how Jeff Buckley would have done it. That was enough for me, so I bought the album.
Where to start? Buckley's vocals on this 10-track album range from ethereal and fragile to hard rock, roaming unfettered up and down the scale, all over the place, in every style. The music backing the vocals is just as varied. But more than that, there is the range of emotion expressed. On "Mojo Pin", in a delicate, nearly feminine voice, Jeff is in despair: "...if only you'd come back to me...", he sings, backed by music with, first, a jazz flavor, then, Led Zeppelin rock. The title song has a more straightforward folk-rock feel, and the vocal ends by being raw and intense. "Last Goodbye" is another song about a dying relationship, with a touch of an East Indian influence; and you can hear this more strongly in "Dream Brother" - trance-inducing guitar, droning melody. "Lilac Wine" is a soft, uncomplicated track paradoxically about confusion and uncertainty. With "So Real", we are back to jazz, loaded with chord, tempo and genre changes; and I get the impression that the experience described might have been a little TOO real. "Lover, You Should've Come Over" is a slow, steady folk/blues track, and, as the title suggests, the singer is longing for his lover to appear. On "Corpus Christi Carol", Jeff sounds like a member of the Vienna Boys' Choir as he sings an acoustic-backed, hymn-like song. In a complete reversal, "Eternal Life", despite the title, has killer grunge-rock music with hard-edged lyrics and very earthy delivery.
So, why does this album remain so fascinating 15 years after its release, 12 years after Jeff's untimely death? Besides the obvious talent, his fixation on romantic love - the driving force of the album - makes him a very alluring figure. This, coupled with the dreamlike atmosphere of the tracks, gives him an elusive quality. You want to grasp who and what he is, but you can't, not really. Who knew that such a debut would also be the finale? What could this young man have accomplished if he had lived longer? Sudden tragic deaths, like Jeff's and that of actress Natasha Richardson last week, leave me with an uneasy feeling, a feeling that there is unfinished business. Well, maybe in the next life? - robbypogiTop notch album to listen to in hifi.I never listened to the full album before until I got this. Only listen to Grace, Last Goodbye, and Hallelujah but the entire album is amazing. Listening to it in hifi with crisp sound to hear the guitar riffs and bass lines with Jeff's haunting voice... such a treat!
- Owen HackmanCase was broken, CD was fineThe case was completely broken once delivered but those are replaceable the CD itself was fine
- J-manFantastic MusicI waited far too long to pay attention to Jeff's work. Aside from "Last Goodbye" which I had on the Vanilla Sky soundtrack, I hadn't heard much of this album, if at all. What a truly gifted, way ahead of his time singer. Jeff was doing vocal techniques like a master 30+ years ago which we can hear today's young singers doing a poor imitation of. While I'm disappointed in myself for not giving him a shot sooner, it makes me feel good to be another new fan all these years later.
- Mateo a.Emotional AlbumThis album is an amazing album, but it does get you emotional, this made me cry a few times listening to it and i had to stop listening but i would definitely recommend it
