Jeff Buckley (lyrics, great songs, albums, fan, member)

i got his one and only full length album "grace" back in august and havn't stopped listening to it. 8 out of the 10 songs would be album highlights on any other record.. this guy was just genius and in a way his death meant that he will always be remembered for this one almost flawless piece of art.

For not entirely clear reasons, I immediately thought of Rufus Wainwright, and then discovered that I'm not alone in making a connection between the two; this is from 15 years ago:

Sorry, I can't help. I just know the Live at Bataclan album, whose playlist is mainly Grace, plus "The Way Young Lovers Do". Is that track brilliant, or over-the-top indulgence? Please advise, because I have always been unable to decide:-

I didn't wanna catergorise this guy incase people didnt read the topic.
Jeff was an amzing artist, writing one of my favourite songs 'Hallelujah'. He wrote the phenomanal 'Grace' and was extremely talented.
Well Jeff died mysteriously in a boating accident in 1997. God I remember crying, he wrote such beautiful lyrics.
It was recently the anniversary of his passing and I was wondering if anyone had any opinions on Jeff.
