Recently stumbled upon Jeff Buckley’s debut record Grace from 1994, and what a fantastic album. Moments like this make me appreciate knowing about the artist and record, but boy, do I wish I had known about it sooner. I’m almost mad at myself for not knowing about this in the past. Better sooner than later, I suppose.

As a result, I picked Buckley’s 1995 performance of Hallelujah from Tokyo for the latest Live Music Recommendation. As one YouTube comment stated, Jeff Buckley is for rock and singer/songwriter tunes what Frank Sinatra is for vocal jazz and swing. A fantastic performer in every single way, from voice to emotion.
