have you guys heard much of this amazing folk singer from the 60-70's? he wasn't that well known. his son jeff buckley is much more well known. just finished reading dream brother, about tim and jeff it's awesome. what do you all think?

im trying to breathe life into this folk forum.

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.

I really like the song Dolphins at the moment, there's a great clip from OGWT on YouTube.

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.
