You know I like Jeff Buckley's father's music. This track from The Old Grey Whistle Test features Ian Wallace (ex King Crimson) on drums.Quote:

Another one from Tim Buckley.
You may recognise the song. 😊

Yes, I did. That's another of my favourites. It was a toss up whether I chose that one or the one I did. I only selected, 'Dolphins,' because Ian Wallace was on drums. As far as I'm concerned, 'Song to the Siren,' is one of the most beautifully crafted songs ever. Ta for posting.Quote:

I think Jeff Buckley met his dad Tim Buckley only once, two months before Tim died in June 1975 of an overdose of heroin and morphine.
Although Jeff flatly rejected any comparisons to his dad there were a lot of similarities between them. They looked like each other, had these amazing haunting voices and had a similar approach to making music, writing songs that broke free of convention. Both died young, they were sensitive souls, probably too sensitive for this world.
On this track Tim's vocal range is astonishing.

I think Jeff was the more talented but thats just my opinionQuote:

Stunning talent , haunting voice , great guitar sounds, at times I used to hear Zeppelin type sounds in his songs , especially their slower bluesy songsQuote:

He looked good in leather to be fair
I saw them as Budgie's support band around 1972 in Barry Memorial Hall. They struck me as pale imitations of bands that preceded them in their genre. I almost demanded my 50p entrance back.Quote:

Well I saw many of the most influential heavy metal bands of the day and I have never come across comments that Judas Priest were more influential than the bands that probably influenced them in the first place. Tell me more from your perspective, Monsieur Factory.Quote:

You can tell me what influential metal bands you saw in your youth and we can discuss if they were in fact heavy metal or rock
There is a big difference
