So what do you guys think of Tim Buckley and Jeff Buckley?
Any favorite songs? How do you think an album like Lorca or Starsailor compares to Grace?

Cameron Gray
i love jeff
but tim was way superior not even a contest m8
Levi White
this
it's nice to think of them as equals but really deadbeat daddy was on a different planet from the alt rock of his son
Brody Hughes
Jeff was better. Sad he's gone.
Jacob Sanchez
Childhood is when you idolize Grace
Adulthood is when you realize Lorca/Starsailor makes more sense
Dominic Lee
I like jeff but I don't think grace is better than any of tims albums besides obviously his last two.
I mean, I like hallelujah like everybody else but the rest of the album is just too alt rock for me to enjoy.

I never really got into Jeff, that 90's alternative sound hasn't aged well. Though he does have a good voice and I do like his version of Hallelujah. Tim has half a dozen albums that are practically perfect though so it's hard to match that.
Adrian Anderson
Both Tim and Jeff were great in their own ways. Their voices are comparable, but Jeff would stretch his much more in live performances compared to what tim would. Also Jeff was an amazing guitarist. But Tim has written a lot of better songs, but Jeff also really hasn't wrote any bad ones. They go hand in hand really, I'd say at least.
Christopher Powell
Jeff is the better singer
Tim is the better writer
Carter Jenkins
>Jeff is the better singer
not true btw
Matthew Brooks
It is
Gavin Fisher
Tim was more creative with his music but Jeff had the voice of a God. Then again, Jeff only made one studio album and left behind some scraps that he was unhappy with. We'll never know if he was as creative.

I've not listened to much Tim so share your favs
Jaxson Anderson
Happy/Sad is also fantastic.
Colton Davis
Once I Was is a fantastic Tim song. Jeff sang it at a tribute show.
Thomas Jackson
Except is totally is
Kayden Ortiz
jeff started that annoying hipster vocal inflection
Aiden Rodriguez
how so?
Chase Collins
Jeff has a prettier voice and is more cute so he wins.
It's hard living knowing you will likely never create anything 1/10th as beautiful as his Hallelujah version
Oliver Gonzalez
Nothing Tim Buckley ever made had as powerful of a vocal delivery as "Lover, You Should Have Come Over" or "Morning Theft". The only song I can think of that comes somewhat close is "Once I Was".
Jack Myers
yes it is!
Levi Peterson
Beautiful! Which album?
Jaxson Morgan
Jeff might be able to belt it out stronger but Tim is better in songwriting and his voice is way more pleasant and unique imo. Once I Was and Pleasant Street are his vocal highlights.
Dylan Peterson
Grace wouldn't even be in Tim's Top 5 albums
Oliver Parker
maybe not even in the top 5 versions
still good tho
Ayden Thomas
It's off Goodbye and Hello
Nathaniel Perez
Secretly Tim's best album
Lincoln Gutierrez
thank you
Cooper Rogers
>powerful of a vocal delivery
this means literaly nothing tho, buzzwords are just that kid, buzzwords

It's frustrating that This Mortal Coil's mediocre cover is more popular than the original (in either its studio or acoustic form)
youtube.com
That said, I do think that Amen Dunes cover is a pretty great perfection of what This Mortal Coil was trying to go for
Ian Rogers
That's what got me into Tim. Found Goodbye and Hello vinyl at a thrift store for $1 and never heard of him. Then fucking loved it.
Caleb Collins
If Tim had lived, how do you think he would have affected Jeff's career? Would Jeff have totally blown him off since he wasn't there as a father, or would he have embraced it? As it is, Jeff was able to get his start through some of Tim's old contacts.
Ryan Cruz
Jeff stretched his vocal talents more and professionally had a better voice. Both voices are great though.
