Jeff Buckley

Jeffrey Scott Buckley (November 17, 1966 – May 29, 1997),

Jeff Buckley
raised as Scott Moorhead,[1] was an American singer,
songwriter, and guitarist. After a decade as a session guitarist
in Los Angeles, Buckley amassed a following in the early 1990s
by performing cover songs at venues in East Village,
Manhattan, such as Sin-é, while gradually focusing more on
his own material. After rebuffing interest from record labels[2]
and Herb Cohen—the manager of his father, singer Tim
Buckley[3]— he signed with Columbia, recruited a band, and
recorded what would be his only studio album, Grace, in 1994.

Over the following three years, the band toured extensively to

promote Grace, including concerts in the U.S., Europe, Japan,
and Australia. In 1996, they stopped touring[4] and made
sporadic attempts to record Buckley's second album in New
York City with Tom Verlaine as the producer.

In 1997, Buckley moved to Memphis, Tennessee, to resume

work on the album, to be titled My Sweetheart the Drunk,
recording many four-track demos while also playing weekly Buckley in 1994
solo shows at a local venue. On May 29, 1997, while awaiting

the arrival of his band from New York, he drowned during a
spontaneous evening swim, fully clothed, in the Mississippi Birth name Jeffrey Scott
River, where he was caught in the wake of a passing boat; his Buckley
body was found on June 4.[5] Also known as Scott "Scottie"
Moorhead
Since his death, there have been many posthumous releases of
his material, including a four-track collection of demos and Born November 17,
studio recordings of his unfinished second album My 1966
Sweetheart the Drunk, expansions of Grace, and the Live at Anaheim,
Sin-é EP. Chart success for Buckley came posthumously; with California, U.S.

Genres Alternative rock ·
Born in Anaheim, California,[1]
Buckley was the only son of folk-rock · blues
Mary (née Guibert) and Tim Buckley. His mother was a Zonian Occupation(s) Singer, songwriter,
of mixed Greek, French, and Panamanian descent,[8] while his guitarist
father was the son of an Irish American father and an Italian
American mother.[9] Buckley was raised by his mother and Instrument(s) Vocals, guitar
stepfather, Ron Moorhead, in Southern California, and had a Years active 1990–1997
half-brother, Corey Moorhead.[10][11] Buckley moved many
times in and around Orange County while growing up, an Labels Columbia
upbringing Buckley called "rootless trailer trash".[12] As a
child, Buckley was known as Scott "Scottie" Moorhead, based Website jeffbuckley.com (ht
on his middle name and his stepfather's surname.[1] tp://jeffbuckley.co
m)
His biological father, Tim Buckley, was a singer-songwriter
who released a series of folk and jazz albums in the late 1960s and early 1970s, and whom, he said,
he only met once, at the age of eight.[13] After his biological father died of a drug overdose in
1975,[14] he chose to go by Buckley and his real first name, which he found on his birth
certificate.[15] To members of his family he remained "Scottie".[16]

Buckley was brought up around music; his mother was a classically trained pianist and cellist,[17]
and his stepfather introduced him to Led Zeppelin, Queen, Jimi Hendrix, the Who, and Pink Floyd
at an early age.[18] Led Zeppelin's Physical Graffiti was the first album he owned,[19] and he has
noted hard rock band Kiss as an early favorite.[20] He grew up singing around the house and in
harmony with his mother,[21] and later noted that all his family sang.[22] He began playing guitar at
the age of five after discovering an acoustic guitar in his grandmother's closet.[23] At age 12, he
decided to become a musician[19] and received his first electric guitar, a black Les Paul, at age
13.[24] He attended Loara High School[25] and played in the school jazz band;[26] during this time,
he developed an affinity for progressive rock bands Rush, Genesis, and Yes, as well as jazz fusion
guitarist Al Di Meola.[27]

After graduating high school, he moved to Hollywood to attend the Musicians Institute,[28]
completing a one-year course at age 19.[29] Buckley later told Rolling Stone the school was "the
biggest waste of time",[19] but noted in an interview with DoubleTake Magazine that he
appreciated studying music theory there, saying, "I was attracted to really interesting harmonies,
stuff that I would hear in Ravel, Ellington, Bartók."[30]

Career
Buckley spent the next six years working in a hotel and playing guitar in various struggling bands,
playing in styles from jazz, reggae, and roots rock to heavy metal.[31] He toured with dancehall
reggae artist Shinehead[32] and also played the occasional funk and R&B studio session,
collaborating with fledgling producer Michael J. Clouse to form X-Factor Productions.[33]
Throughout this period, Buckley limited his singing to backing vocals.[34]

He moved to New York City in February 1990[35] but found few opportunities to work as a
musician. He was introduced to Qawwali, the Sufi devotional music of India and Pakistan, and
Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan, one of its best-known singers.[36] Buckley was an impassioned fan of
Khan,[37] and during what he called his "cafe days", he often covered Khan's songs. In January
1996, he interviewed Khan for Interview and wrote liner notes for Khan's Supreme Collection, Vol.
1 compilation. He also became interested in blues musician Robert Johnson and hardcore punk
band Bad Brains during this time.[18] Buckley moved back to Los Angeles in September when his
father's former manager, Herb Cohen, offered to help him record his first demo of original songs.
Buckley completed Babylon Dungeon Sessions, a four-song cassette that included the songs
"Eternal Life", "Unforgiven" (later titled "Last Goodbye"), "Strawberry Street" (a different version
of which appears on the Grace Legacy Edition), and punk screamer "Radio".[38] Cohen and
Buckley hoped to attract attention from the music industry with the demo tape.[39]

Buckley flew back to New York early the following year to make his public singing debut at a
tribute concert for his father called "Greetings from Tim Buckley".[40] The event, produced by
show business veteran Hal Willner, was held at St. Ann's Church in Brooklyn on April 26, 1991.[40]
Buckley rejected the idea of the concert as a springboard to his career, instead citing personal
reasons regarding his decision to sing at the tribute.[41]

With accompaniment by experimental rock guitarist Gary Lucas, Buckley performed "I Never
Asked To Be Your Mountain", a song Tim Buckley wrote about an infant Jeff Buckley and his
mother.[42] Buckley returned to the stage to play "Sefronia – The King's Chain", "Phantasmagoria
in Two", and concluded the concert with "Once I Was" performed acoustically with an impromptu
a cappella ending, due to a snapped guitar string.[42] Willner, the show's organizer, later recalled
that Buckley's set closer made a strong impression.[43] Buckley's performance at the concert was
counterintuitive to his desire to distance himself musically from his father; Buckley later explained
his reasoning to Rolling Stone: "It wasn't my work, it wasn't my life. But it bothered me that I
hadn't been to his funeral, that I'd never been able to tell him anything. I used that show to pay my
last respects."[19] The concert proved to be his first step into the music industry that had eluded
him for years.[44]

On subsequent trips to New York in mid-1991, Buckley began co-writing with Gary Lucas, resulting
in the songs "Grace" and "Mojo Pin",[45] and by late 1991, he began performing with Lucas's band
Gods and Monsters in New York City.[46] After being offered a development deal as a member of
Gods and Monsters at Imago Records, Buckley moved to Lower East Side, Manhattan, at the end of
1991.[47] The day after Gods and Monsters officially debuted in March 1992, he decided to leave the
band.[48]

Buckley began performing at several clubs and cafés around Lower Manhattan,[49] but Sin-é
became his main venue.[18] He first appeared at Sin-é in April 1992[50] and quickly earned a
regular Monday night slot there.[51] His repertoire consisted of a diverse range of folk, rock, R&B,
blues, and jazz cover songs, much of it he had newly learned. During this period, he discovered
singers such as Nina Simone, Billie Holiday, Van Morrison, and Judy Garland.[52] Buckley
performed an eclectic selection of covers from a range of artists from Led Zeppelin, Nusrat Fateh
Ali Khan, Bob Dylan, Édith Piaf, Elton John, the Smiths, Bad Brains, Leonard Cohen, Robert
Johnson[38][51][52] and Siouxsie Sioux.[53][54] Original songs from the Babylon Dungeon Sessions,
and the songs he'd written with Gary Lucas were also included in his set lists.[52] He performed
solo, accompanying himself on a borrowed Fender Telecaster.[50] Buckley stated he learned how to
perform onstage from playing to small audiences.[13]

Over the next few months, Buckley attracted admiring crowds and attention from record label
executives,[55] including industry maven Clive Davis dropping by to see him.[13] By the summer of
1992, limos from executives eager to sign the singer lined the street outside Sin-é.[55] Buckley
signed with Columbia Records, home of Bob Dylan and Bruce Springsteen,[56] for a three-album,
nearly $1 million deal in October 1992.[57] Buckley spent three days in February 1993 in the studio
with engineer Steve Addabbo and Columbia A&R representative, Steve Berkowitz, recording much
of Buckley's solo repertoire. Buckley sang a cappella and accompanied himself on acoustic and
electric guitars, Wurlitzer electric piano, and harmonium. These tapes remain unreleased in the
Columbia vaults, but much of this material later surfaced on the Grace album.[58] Recording dates
were set for July and August 1993 for what would become Buckley's recording debut, an EP of four
songs which included a cover of Van Morrison's "The Way Young Lovers Do".[59] Live at Sin-é was
released on November 23, 1993, documenting this period of Buckley's life.[60]

Grace

In mid-1993, Buckley began working on his first album with record producer Andy Wallace.
Buckley assembled a band, composed of bassist Mick Grøndahl and drummer Matt Johnson, and
spent several weeks rehearsing.[61][62]
In September, the trio headed to Bearsville Studios in Woodstock, New York, to spend six weeks
recording basic tracks for what would become Grace. Buckley invited ex-bandmate Lucas to play
guitar on the songs "Grace" and "Mojo Pin", and Woodstock-based jazz musician Karl Berger wrote
and conducted string arrangements with Buckley assisting at times.[63] Buckley returned home for
overdubbing at studios in Manhattan and New Jersey, where he performed take after take to
capture the perfect vocals and experimented with ideas for additional instruments and added
textures to the songs.[64]

In January 1994, Buckley departed on his first solo North American tour in support of Live at Sin-
é,[64] followed by a 10-day European tour in March.[65] Buckley played clubs and coffeehouses and
made in-store appearances.[64] After returning, Buckley invited guitarist Michael Tighe to join the
band and a collaboration between the two resulted in "So Real", a song recorded with
producer/engineer Clif Norrell as a late addition to the album.[66][67] In June, Buckley began his
first full band tour called the "Peyote Radio Theatre Tour" that lasted into August.[68] The
Pretenders' Chrissie Hynde,[69] Soundgarden's Chris Cornell, and The Edge from U2[70] were
among the attendees of these early shows.

Grace was released on August 23, 1994. In addition to seven original songs, the album included
three covers: "Lilac Wine", based on the version by Nina Simone;[52] made famous by Elkie Brooks,
"Corpus Christi Carol", from Benjamin Britten's A Boy was Born, Op.3, a composition that Buckley
was introduced to in high school, based on a 15th-century hymn;[71] and "Hallelujah"[72] by
Leonard Cohen, based on John Cale's recording from the Cohen tribute album, I'm Your Fan.[52]
His rendition of "Hallelujah" has been called "Buckley's best" and "one of the great songs"[73] by
Time, and is included on Happy Mag's list of "The 10 Best Covers Of All Time",[74] and Rolling
Stone's list of "The 500 Greatest Songs of All Time".[75]

Sales of Grace were slow, and it garnered little radio airplay despite critical acclaim.[76] The
Sydney Morning Herald proclaimed it "a romantic masterpiece" and a "pivotal, defining work".[77]
Despite slow initial sales, the album went gold in France and Australia over the next two years,[68]
achieved gold status in the U.S. in 2002,[78] and sold over six times platinum in Australia in
2006.[79]

Grace won appreciation from a host of revered musicians and artists, including members of
Buckley's biggest influence, Led Zeppelin.[80] Jimmy Page considered Grace close to being his
"favorite album of the decade".[81] Robert Plant was also complimentary,[82] as was Brad Pitt,
saying of Buckley's work, "There's an undercurrent to his music, there's something you can't
pinpoint. Like the best of films, or the best of art, there's something going on underneath, and
there's a truth there. And I find his stuff absolutely haunting. It just ... it's under my skin."[83]
Others who had influenced Buckley's music lauded him:[84] Bob Dylan named Buckley "one of the
great songwriters of this decade",[82] and, in an interview with The Village Voice, David Bowie
named Grace as one of 10 albums he'd bring with him to a desert island.[85]

Concert tours

Buckley spent much of the next year and a half touring internationally to promote Grace.
Following Buckley's Peyote Radio Theater tour, the band began a European tour on August 23,
1994, starting with performances in the UK and Ireland. The tour continued in Scandinavia and,
throughout September, numerous concerts in Germany were played. The tour ended on September
22 with a concert in Paris. A gig on September 24 in New York dovetailed on to the end of the
European tour and Buckley and band spent the next month relaxing and rehearsing.[86]
A tour of Canada and the U.S. began on October 19, 1994, at CBGB's. The tour was far reaching
with concerts held on both East and West Coasts of the U.S. and a number of performances in
central and southern states. The tour ended two months later on December 18 at Maxwell's in
Hoboken, New Jersey.[86] After another month of rest and rehearsal, the band commenced a
second European tour, this time mainly for promotion purposes. The band began the tour in
Dublin.[87] The short tour largely consisted of promotional work in London and Paris.[86]

In late January, the band did their first tour of Japan, playing concerts and appearing for
promotion of the album and newly released Japanese single "Last Goodbye". The band returned to
Europe on February 6 and toured various Western European countries before returning to the U.S.
on March 6. Among the gigs performed during this period, Buckley and his band performed at a
19th-century-built French venue, the Bataclan, and material from the concert was recorded and
later released in October of that year as a four track EP, Live from the Bataclan. Songs from a
performance on February 25, at the venue Nighttown in Rotterdam, were released as a
promotional-only CD, So Real.[86]

Touring recommenced in April with dates across the U.S. and Canada. During this period, Buckley
and the band notably played Metro in Chicago, which was recorded on video and later released as
Live in Chicago on VHS and later on DVD. In addition, on June 4 they played at Sony Music
Studios for the Sony Music radio hour. Following this was a month-long European tour between
June 20 and July 18 in which they played many summer music festivals, including the Glastonbury
Festival and the 1995 Meltdown Festival (at which Buckley sang Henry Purcell's "Dido's
Lament"[88] at the invitation of Elvis Costello).[89] During the tour, Buckley played two concerts at
the Paris Olympia, a venue made famous by the French vocalist Édith Piaf. Although he had failed
to fill out smaller American venues at that point of his career, both nights at the large Paris
Olympia venue were sold out.[90] Shortly after this Buckley attended the Festival de la Musique
Sacrée (Festival of Sacred Music), also held in France, and performed "What Will You Say" as a
duet with Alim Qasimov, an Azerbaijani mugham singer. Sony BMG has since released a live
album, 2001's Live à L'Olympia, which has a selection of songs from both Olympia performances
and the collaboration with Qasimov.[91]

Buckley's Mystery White Boy tour, playing concerts in both Sydney and Melbourne, Australia,
lasted between August 28 and September 6 and recordings of these performances were compiled
and released on the live album Mystery White Boy. Buckley was so well received during these
concerts that his album Grace went gold in Australia, selling over 35,000 copies, and taking this
into account he decided a longer tour was needed and returned for a tour of New Zealand and
Australia in February the following year.[68]

Between the two Oceanian tours, Buckley and the band took a break from touring. Buckley played
solo in the meantime with concerts at Sin-é and a New Year's Eve concert at Mercury Lounge in
New York.[86] After the break, the band spent the majority of February on the Hard Luck Tour in
Australia and New Zealand, but tensions had risen between the group and drummer Matt Johnson.
The concert on March 1, 1996, was the last gig he played with Buckley and his band.[68]

Much of the material from the tours of 1995 and 1996 was recorded and released on either
promotional EPs, such as the Grace EP, or posthumously on albums, such as Mystery White Boy
(a reference to Buckley not using his real name) and Live à L'Olympia. Many of the other concerts
Buckley played during this period have surfaced on bootleg recordings.[92]

Following Johnson's departure, the band, now without a drummer, was put on hold and did not
perform live again until February 12, 1997.[93] Due to the pressure from extensive touring, Buckley
spent the majority of the year away from the stage. However, from May 2 to 5, he played a short
stint as bass guitarist with Mind Science of the Mind, with friend Nathan Larson, then guitarist of
Shudder to Think.[68] Buckley returned to playing live concerts when he went on his "phantom
solo tour" of cafés in the Northeast U.S. in December 1996, appearing under a series of aliases: the
Crackrobats, Possessed by Elves, Father Demo, Smackrobiotic, the Halfspeeds, Crit-Club, Topless
America, Martha & the Nicotines, and A Puppet Show Named Julio.[86] By way of justification,
Buckley posted a note stating he missed the anonymity of playing in cafes and local bars:

There was a time in my life not too long ago when I could show up in a cafe and simply
do what I do, make music, learn from performing my music, explore what it means to
me, i.e., have fun while I irritate and/or entertain an audience who don't know me or
what I am about. In this situation I have that precious and irreplaceable luxury of
failure, of risk, of surrender. I worked very hard to get this kind of thing together, this
work forum. I loved it and then I missed it when it disappeared. All I am doing is
reclaiming it.[94]

My Sweetheart the Drunk

In 1996, Buckley started writing a new album with the working title My Sweetheart the Drunk.
While working with Patti Smith on her 1996 album Gone Again, he met collaborator Tom Verlaine,
the lead singer of the punk band Television. Buckley asked Verlaine to be producer on the new
album and he agreed.[95] In mid-1996, Buckley and his band began recording sessions in
Manhattan with Verlaine, recording "Sky Is a Landfill", "Vancouver", "Morning Theft", and "You
and I".[96] Eric Eidel played the drums through these sessions as a stop-gap after Matt Johnson's
departure, before Parker Kindred joined as full-time drummer.[97] Around this time, Buckley met
Inger Lorre of the Nymphs in an East Village bar[98] and struck up a fast and close friendship.
Together, they contributed a track to Kerouac: Kicks Joy Darkness, a Jack Kerouac tribute
album.[95] After Lorre's backup guitarist for an upcoming album quit the project, Buckley offered
to fill in.[99] He became attached to one of the songs from the album, "Yard of Blonde Girls" and
recorded a cover.[100] Another recording session in Manhattan followed in early 1997, but Buckley
and the band were unsatisfied with the material.[101]

On February 4, 1997, Buckley played a short set at the Knitting Factory's tenth anniversary concert
featuring a selection of his new songs: "Jewel Box", "Morning Theft", "Everybody Here Wants
You", "The Sky is a Landfill" and "Yard of Blonde Girls".[102] Lou Reed was in attendance[102] and
expressed interest in working with Buckley.[85] The band played their first gig with Parker
Kindred, their new drummer, at Arlene's Grocery in New York on February 9. The set featured
much of Buckley's new material that would appear on Sketches for My Sweetheart the Drunk and
a recording has become one of Buckley's most widely distributed bootlegs.[103] Later that month,
Buckley recorded a spoken word reading of the Edgar Allan Poe poem, "Ulalume", for the album
Closed on Account of Rabies.[104] It was his last recording in New York; shortly after, he moved to
Memphis, Tennessee.[68]

Buckley became interested in recording at Easley McCain Recording in Memphis, at the suggestion
of friend Dave Shouse from the Grifters.[105] He rented a shotgun house there, of which he was so
fond he contacted the owner about purchasing it.[106] From February 12 to May 26, 1997, Buckley
played at Barristers', a bar located in downtown Memphis, underneath a parking garage. He played
there numerous times in order to work through the new material in a live atmosphere, at first with
the band, then solo as part of a Monday night residency.[107] In early February, Buckley and the
band did a third recording session with Verlaine in Memphis, where they recorded "Everybody
Here Wants You", "Nightmares by the Sea", "Witches' Rave" and "Opened Once",[96] but Buckley
expressed his dissatisfaction with the sessions and contacted Grace producer, Andy Wallace, to
step in as Verlaine's replacement.[95] Buckley started recording demos on his own 4-track recorder
in preparation for a forthcoming session with Wallace;[95][96] some of the demos were sent to his
band in New York, who listened to them enthusiastically and were excited to resume work on the
album. However, Buckley was not entirely happy with the results and sent his band back to New
York while he stayed behind to work on the songs. The band was scheduled to return to Memphis
for rehearsals and recording on May 29.[96][68] After Buckley's death, the recordings with Verlaine
and Buckley's demos were released as Sketches for My Sweetheart the Drunk in May 1998.[108]

Death
On the evening of Thursday, May 29, 1997, Buckley's band flew
to Memphis to join him in his studio to work on his new
material. The same evening, Buckley went swimming fully
dressed in Wolf River Harbor, a slack water channel of the
Mississippi River,[109] singing the chorus of Led Zeppelin's
"Whole Lotta Love" while swimming under the Memphis
Suspension Railway.[96][110] Keith Foti, a roadie in Buckley's
band, remained on shore. After moving a radio and guitar out Wolf River Harbor, with Memphis,
of reach from the wake from a passing tugboat, Foti looked up Tennessee, in background
to see Buckley had vanished; the wake of the tugboat had swept
him away from shore and under water. A rescue effort that
night and the next morning by scuba teams and police failed to discover Buckley's body. On June
4, passengers on the American Queen riverboat spotted his body in the Wolf River, caught in some
branches.[111][112]

Buckley's autopsy showed no signs of drugs or alcohol in his system, and the death was ruled an
accidental drowning. The official Jeff Buckley website published a statement saying his death was
neither mysterious nor a suicide.[113]

Tributes
Elizabeth Fraser of the Cocteau Twins, with whom Buckley
previously had a relationship, recorded the Massive Attack
song "Teardrop" the day she learned he was missing, and later
stated: "That was so weird ... I'd got letters out and I was
thinking about him. That song's kind of about him – that's how
it feels to me anyway."[114]

PJ Harvey knew Buckley personally. She wrote the song

"Memphis" after hearing the news. She had received a letter
from him the week before. "There were many things I wished I Graffiti memorial by fans in Russia,
could say to him, so instead I wrote this song".[115] 2015

Chris Cornell wrote "Wave Goodbye", which appeared on his

first solo album, Euphoria Morning, for Buckley.[116]

Rufus Wainwright, whose career had barely started when he met Buckley, wrote "Memphis
Skyline" in tribute to him, from his 2004 album Want Two.[117]

Steve Adey's "Mississippi" from his 2006 album All Things Real contains the lyrics "Until the
morning thief steals the humming of the Lord", a reference to Buckley's "Morning Theft".[118]

Duncan Sheik's "A Body Goes Down" paid tribute to Buckley on Sheik's 1998 album Humming,
which was included in the documentary Amazing Grace: Jeff Buckley. Drummer Matt Johnson
played drums on the track, as well as for Grace and most of Humming.[119]
Glen Hansard wrote "Neath the Beeches" in memory of Buckley; it appears on the album Dance the
Devil by Hansard's band The Frames.[120]

Pete Yorn's song "Bandstand in the Sky" from his album Nightcrawler and his live album Live
from New Jersey is a tribute to Buckley.[121]

Zita Swoon's song "Song for a Dead Singer" from the album I Paint Pictures on a Wedding Dress is
a tribute to Jeff Buckley.[122]

Lisa Germano's "Except For The Ghosts", from the album In The Maybe World, was written for
Buckley.[123]

Aimee Mann's "Just Like Anyone", from the album Bachelor No. 2, pays tribute to Buckley.[124]

Juliana Hatfield's song "Trying Not To Think About It", from the album Please Do Not Disturb,
was written about the death of Jeff Buckley.[125]

Lana Del Rey's song "Gods and Monsters" is a direct nod to Buckley's former band;[126] Del Rey
cites Buckley as an influence.[127]

Caligula's Horse's song "Dragonfly" was described as "a vocal dedication to the music of Jeff
Buckley" by Jim Grey (the band's lead vocalist).[128]

Mark Kozelek's song "LaGuardia", from the album Mark Kozelek with Ben Boyce and Jim White 2,
includes lyrics detailing Kozelek's memories of Jeff Buckley.[129]

Bono often pays tribute to Buckley and once stated "Jeff Buckley was a pure drop in an ocean of
noise".

Katatonia covered his song "Nightmares by the Sea" on their album Tonight's Decision, and their
song "Saw You Drown", from their previous album Discouraged Ones, was written as a tribute to
his tragic death.

Kevin Morby's songs "A Coat of Butterflies" and "Disappearing" include references to Buckley and
his death.

Pianos Become the Teeth’s song "Buckley" references Buckley and his death.

Musical style
Buckley's voice was a particularly distinguished aspect of his music; he possessed a tenor vocal
range, spanning around four octaves.[130] Buckley made full use of this range in his performances,
particularly in the songs from Grace, and reached peaks of high G in the tenor range at the
culmination of "Grace". "Corpus Christi Carol" was sung nearly entirely in a high falsetto. The pitch
and volume of his singing was also highly variable, showcased in songs "Mojo Pin" and "Dream
Brother", which began with mid-range quieter vocals, before reaching louder, higher peaks near
the ending of the songs.[131][132]

Buckley played guitar in a variety of styles, ranging from the distorted rock of "Sky is a Landfill",
the jazz of "Strange Fruit", the country styling of "Lost Highway", and the guitar fingerpicking style
in "Hallelujah". He occasionally used a slide guitar in live performances as a solo act, as well as for
the introduction of "Last Goodbye", when playing with a full band. His songs were written in
various guitar tunings which, apart from the EADGBE standard tuning, included Drop D tuning
and an Open G tuning. His guitar playing style varied from highly melodic songs, such as "The
Twelfth of Never", to more percussive ones, such as "New Year's Prayer".[133][134]

Equipment

Buckley mainly played a 1983 Fender Telecaster and a Rickenbacker 360/12, but also used several
other guitars, including a black Gibson Les Paul Custom and a 1967 Guild F-50 acoustic. When on
tour with his band, he used Fender Amplifiers for a clean sound and Mesa Boogie amps for
overdriven tones. While he was primarily a singer and guitarist, he also played other instruments
on various studio recordings and sessions, including bass, dobro, mandolin, harmonium (heard on
the intro to "Lover, You Should've Come Over"), organ, dulcimer ("Dream Brother" intro), tabla,
esraj, and harmonica.[135]

Personal life
Buckley was roommates with actress Brooke Smith from 1990 to 1991.[136][137] During a tribute
concert to his father, Tim Buckley, in April 1991, Buckley met artist Rebecca Moore,[138] and the
pair dated until 1993.[139] This relationship became the inspiration for his record Grace[140] and
provoked his permanent move to New York.[138] From 1994 to 1995, Buckley had an intense
relationship with Elizabeth Fraser of Cocteau Twins.[141] They wrote and recorded a duet together,
"All Flowers in Time Bend Towards the Sun",[142] which has never been released commercially.
Buckley began a relationship with musician Joan Wasser, known professionally as Joan as
Policewoman in 1994.[143] He reportedly proposed marriage to her shortly before his death.[144]

Legacy
After Buckley's death, a collection of demo recordings and a full-length album he had been
reworking for his second album were released as Sketches for My Sweetheart the Drunk  – the
compilation being overseen by his mother, Mary Guibert, band members and old friend Michael J.
Clouse, as well as Chris Cornell. The album achieved gold sales in Australia in 1998.[145] Three
other albums composed of live recordings have also been released, along with a live DVD of a
performance in Chicago. A previously unreleased 1992 recording of "I Shall Be Released", sung by
Buckley over the phone on live radio, was released on the album For New Orleans.

Since his death, Buckley has been the subject of numerous documentaries: Fall in Light, a 1999
production for French TV; Goodbye and Hello, a program about Buckley and his father produced
for Netherlands TV in 2000; and Everybody Here Wants You, a documentary made in 2002 by the
British Broadcasting Corporation (BBC). An hour-long documentary about Buckley called
Amazing Grace: Jeff Buckley has been shown at various film festivals to critical acclaim.[146] The
film was released worldwide in 2009 by Sony BMG Legacy as part of the Grace Around The World
Deluxe Edition.[147][148] In spring 2009, it was revealed that Ryan Jaffe, best known for scripting
the movie The Rocker, had replaced Brian Jun as screenwriter for the upcoming film Mystery
White Boy. Orion Williams is also set to co-produce the film with Michelle Sy.[149] A separate
project involving the book Dream Brother was allegedly cancelled.[150]

In May and June 2007, Buckley's life and music were celebrated globally with tributes in
Australia,[151] Canada, UK, France, Iceland, Israel, Ireland,[152] Republic of Macedonia, Portugal,
and the U.S.[153][154][155] Many of Buckley's family members attended various tribute concerts
across the globe, some of which they helped organize. There are three annual Jeff Buckley tribute
events: the Chicago-based Uncommon Ground, featuring a three-day concert schedule
(Uncommon Ground hosted their 25th anniversary tribute in November 2022 [156]); An Evening
With Jeff Buckley, an annual New York City tribute; and the Australia-based Fall In Light.[157] The
latter event is run by the Fall In Light Foundation, which in addition to the concerts, runs a
"Guitars for Schools" program;[158] the name of the foundation is taken from lyrics of Buckley's
"New Year's Prayer".

In 2015, tapes of a 1993 recording session for Columbia Records were discovered by Sony
executives doing research for the 20th anniversary of Grace. The recordings were released on the
album You and I in March 2016, featuring mostly covers of songs.[159]

In 2012, Greetings from Tim Buckley premiered at the Toronto International Film Festival; the
film explores Jeff Buckley's relationship with his father.

Buckley is referenced in the 2001 film Vanilla Sky, when Sofia asks David if he would rather listen
to Jeff Buckley or Vikki Carr, to which he responds, "Both. Simultaneously." As David is leaving
Sofia's apartment, the music playing is the intro to Jeff Buckley's song "Last Goodbye", from his
1994 studio album Grace.

Matt Bellamy from Muse acquired the yellow telecaster Buckley used throughout his 1994 LP
Grace and used it to record new music. In July 2021, a new rendition of Muse's 2009 song
“Guiding Light” was released and sold as an NFT ahead of appearing on Bellamy's solo EP
"Cryosleep". Bellamy stated: “Jeff’s Telecaster that he recorded the whole Grace album with, and
the song ‘Hallelujah,’ has a sound like nothing I’ve ever heard. I had a whole team of people doing
due diligence on it to make sure it was absolutely the right one, interviewing his family and all
sorts, before purchasing”.[160]

Resurgence

In 2002, Buckley's cover of Leonard Cohen's "Hallelujah" was used in the "Posse Comitatus"
episode of The West Wing, for which the audio team received an Emmy Award.

On March 7, 2008, Buckley's version of "Hallelujah" was number one on the iTunes chart, selling
178,000 downloads for the week, after being performed by Jason Castro on the seventh season of
American Idol.[161] The song also debuted at number one on Billboard's Hot Digital Songs chart,
giving Buckley his first number one hit on any Billboard chart.

The 2008 UK X Factor winner Alexandra Burke released a cover of "Hallelujah", with the intent to
top the UK Singles Chart as the Christmas number one single. Buckley fans countered this,
launching a campaign with the aim of propelling Buckley's version to the number one spot; despite
this, Burke's version eventually reached the Christmas number one position on the UK charts in
December 2008.[162] Buckley's version of the song entered the UK charts at number 49 on
November 30, and by December 21, it had reached number 2, even though it had not been
rereleased in a physical format.[163][164]

Influence

Musicians who have been influenced by Buckley include Muse, Adele, Bat For Lashes, Lana Del
Rey, Anna Calvi, Kiesza, Ben Folds, Jonny Lang, Eddie Vedder, Fran Healy, and Chris
Cornell.[165][166]

Radiohead recorded "Fake Plastic Trees" after being inspired by Buckley's performance at The
Garage in London. Speaking about the difficulty of recording the song prior to seeing Buckley,
Colin Greenwood remarked “It was going really slowly, so John Leckie said, ‘Why don’t we go out?’
We went to see Jeff Buckley play at The Garage. He just had a Telecaster and a pint of Guinness.
And it was just fucking amazing, really inspirational. Then we went back to the studio and tried an
acoustic version of ‘Fake Plastic Trees’. Thom sat down and played it in three takes, then just burst
into tears afterwards. And that's what we used for the record.”[167] Thom Yorke has said that
Buckley's performance gave him the confidence to sing falsetto.[168]

Coldplay's song "Shiver" was inspired by "Grace". Chris Martin called it "a rip off of Jeff
Buckley".[169]

Biopic

According to Variety, a biopic about Buckley's life, called Everybody Here Wants You, starring
Reeve Carney as Buckley, is set to begin filming in autumn 2021. It will be Orian Williams's
directorial debut and will be released by Culmination Productions. It will be co-produced by
Buckley's mother, Mary Guibert, and Alison Raykovich, manager of Buckley's estate, and will have
access to his music.[170][171]
