Grace (studio album) by Jeff Buckley

Beautiful voice, some production risks have been taken and most of them paid off, wonderful mixture of post-rock with folk and singer-songwriter music. Hallelujah is a stunning cover, better than original. my favorites also include Grace, Last Goodbye, Dream Brother and Lover You Should've Come Over. Corpus Christi Carol and Eternal Life feel like they're out of place here, but overall amazing album (also additional track Forget Her is really worth checking out).

Il disco del MIGLIOR CANTANTE che la musica rock abbia mai visto, una voce che anche stando a basso regime è in grado di far tremare i muri. Difficilmente un disco che contiene tre cover viene considerato così, ma questo non è il caso di Grace...queste tre tracce sono state completamente ridisegnate da Jeff e la sua fantastica band per diventare brani suoi a tutti gli effetti. Per non parlare della Telecaster...quel maledetto suono di Telecaster che mai più nella storia si fonderà con una voce così unica.

Solid album

Undeniably one of the best of all time 9/10

Stunning. Stark. Heartbreaking. It is unbelievable that Grace is a debut album as Buckley sounds so mature and cultured as if he had been around for decades plying his trade. The album takes huge risks too and they always pay off. One of the greatest.

A beautiful album but some of the songs have some compositions choices that are not my favorite style choices, sudden changes in volume and tone. Buckley's voice is fantastic but in some songs the vocal acrobatics are a bit baffling and almost go over the top. The album also is not totally consistent in mood (eg Eternal Life is a song like from a different album)

As everyone, I LOVE the vocal performance on this album...but the musical decisions are jarring. Just when I'm in a blissful state listening to this angel sing, along comes this clamorous music and, I hate to say, ruins the song. Only a few exceptions to this. Yet my rating is still a 85/100 because of that amazing vocal performance.

Jeff Buckley is IMO the greatest vocalist ever in popular music, even beating out Freddie. We only got one studio album from him, but his influence is everywhere in Radiohead and Muse. His legacy lives on.

A decent alt rock outing that has been propelled to fame by one single. Hallelujah is incredible.

Last Goodbye is an incredible song, the cover of Hallelujah is superb. The rest of the album is enjoyable but unspectacular. The guy's voice is amazing, it's such a shame we never got any more studio albums from him.
