biography

[-]by Richie Unterberger


[size=1.25em] One of the great rock vocalists of the 1960s, Tim Buckley drew from folk, psychedelic rock, and progressive jazz to create a considerable body of adventurous work in his brief lifetime. His multi-octave range was capable of not just astonishing power, but great emotional expressiveness, swooping from sorrowful tenderness to anguished wailing. His restless quest for new territory worked against him commercially: By the time his fans had hooked into his latest album, he was onto something else entirely, both live and in the studio. In this sense he recalled artists such as Miles Davis and David Bowie, who were so eager to look forward and change that they confused and even angered listeners who wanted more stylistic consistency. However, his eclecticism has also ensured a durable fascination with his work that has engendered a growing posthumous cult for his music, often with listeners who were too young (or not around) to appreciate his music while he was active.  

Buckley emerged from the same '60s Orange County, CA, folk scene that spawned Jackson Browne andthe Nitty Gritty Dirt BandMothers of Invention drummer Jimmy Carl Black introduced Buckley and a couple of musicians Buckley was playing with to the Mothers' manager, Herbie Cohen. Although Cohenmay have first been interested in Buckley as a songwriter, he realized after hearing some demos thatBuckley was also a diamond in the rough as a singer. Cohen became Buckley's manager, and helped the singer get a deal with Elektra.  

Before Buckley had reached his 20th birthday, he'd released his debut album.

Edit
Now listening to this on Spotify. I don't normally use it, but the CD is sold out at my local store so I've yet to acquire a copy. They have the LP, though.
