TIM BUCKLEY
with LEE UNDERWOOD, VAN DYKE PARKS, JAMES FIELDER, BILLY MUNDI
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

Buckley's 1966 debut was the most straightforward and folk-rock-oriented of his albums.
The material has a lyrical and melodic sophistication that was astounding for a 19-year-old.
The pretty, almost precious songs are complemented by appropriately baroque, psychedelic-tinged production.
If there was a record that exemplified the '60s Elektra folk-rock sound, this may have been it, featuring
production by Elektra owner Jac Holzman and Doors producer Paul Rothchild, Love and Doors
engineer Bruce Botnick, and string arrangements by Jack Nitzsche. That's not to diminish the contributions of the band,
which included his longtime lead guitarist Lee Underwood and Van Dyke Parks on keyboards...(AllMusic)
