I'm not sure how I over looked this when browsing through the folk forum like I find myself doing more than I should, seeing how not too many posts go into it.

He's an outstanding sound writer. Happy Sad is a must have album. He also has a great BBC album, as most are.

Tim Buckley was more well known in his era than Jeff was in his. I've been thru both, so I can judge. Tim also had talent that Jeff never did - not to dis Jeff, but Tim was a phenom.

I`m a big fan of Tim.Goodbye And Hello and Happy Sad are my two favorites.I know some might think of him as throwaway hippie stuff but give him a chance.
