Amazon.co.uk Review
Here's what they say about Jeff Buckley: "He died too young". Here's why they say it: Grace is simply one of the most amazing things you can do with your ears and a little digitally-encoded disc. He inherited the voice of his father, the legendary Tim Buckley--seven octaves, each of them only just enough to cram his big feverish dreams into--but his music was all his own. Think Van Morrison's Astral Weeks on drugs--but then drugs could give some kind of comfort, and there's no comfort in Grace; just constant flux between crippling despair and an almost violent joy. When "Last Goodbye" unfolds it's third different middle-eight of Bollywood strings and Buckley's ecstatic scatting, it's hard to believe an ordinary human could have had a hand in something so extraordinary. --Caitlin Moran

Customer Reviews

A Beautiful Piece of Life
I purchased this album purely on a whim...after I saw "Grace" featured so many times in "my top ten albums of all time" on Amazon and read on various internet sites that Jeff Buckley had an ethereal voice rarely heard of in this day and age...and I have to say with a massive degree of smugness that this album was a highly important find for me. Yes, I have fallen in love with bands before...The Doors and Nirvana are favourites of mine, but none have quite touched me in the same way that Jeff Buckley has. "Grace" gets under your skin and in to your bones like no other album I have ever heard. You can live and breathe the music of Jeff Buckley as it positively lives on inspite of the tragic demise of its creator. My life feels better for having the beauty of Jeff Buckley's music in it. This album is quite simply divine. There is one word that constantly crops up in reviews and fan appreciations of Buckley's music, and that word is "beautiful". Buy this CD, sit back and relax and listen to the pure beauty that will fill your ears....Jeff was an incredibly special human being and musician and we are lucky that we have this small snatch of heaven to listen to. RIP Jeff.

"Genius" is a deserved description
I remember the first time I listened to Grace and being a little lost. The albums scope is just so vast, from the sparse beauty of Hallelujah and Corpus Christi Carol to the "rockin" Eternal Life and So Real. It really took a few listens to appreciate the albums brilliance! If I had to give up all my music but was allowed just one album it would be this. Favourite track personally is So Real, that wild but still controlled ending still gives me the shivers.

The second disc is a tough one, I side with the folks who think Forget Her should've remained unreleased, great song though it is. The rest of the disc is great especially Hank Williams' 'Lost Highway' and Bob Dylans 'Mama You been on my mind' The "road" version of Eternal Life though really kicks ass!

Everyone should give this album a chance.

Where the 'Buck' stops
I finally decided to take the plunge and buy Grace when a friend recommended it. After realising a Legacy edition was been released at a reasonable price I thought it would be a good introduction.

Well first of all the actual record. What can I say? It has certainly fullfilled my expectations. I dont think a record has struck me so immediately since I listended to 'Nevermind' for the first time a few years ago. Jeff's sincere songwriting and beautiful compositions set the scene for an incredible journey of which you dont want to escape. Some of these songs are just vital:- 'Last Goodbye' 'So Real' 'Grace' 'Halleljah' are incredible and leave you reaching for the repeat button. Beautiful.

The bonus disc had a lot to live up to but I took it for what it was. These are a great set of songs a lot of which show Jeff just having a good time and experimenting with some cool cover versions. It also includes the enchanting 'Forget Her' which was originally pencilled in to be on 'Grace' but Jeff removed it at the last moment. Some of the remixes have already been included on the 'Grace EP's' so some people may already own them. The only thing I would of liked to have seen added on here is Jeff's cover of Pearl Jam's 'Indifference'.

The DVD has an updated version of the 'Grace' documentary that has some good interviews although it is quite short. Jeff's insight into his music and life is definitely a highlight. Also the footage of him rockin' along to 'Cherub Rock' by The Smashing Pumpkins.

The booklet is described as a 'deluxe 24 page booklet' which is perhaps slightly exagerrated but does contain a interesting guide to the songs on the bonus disc.

5 Stars.
