This whole album is a masterpiece. I listen to the whole thing at least once a week! It is my favourite album ever without doubt!

[JeremyMedicina]

Jeff Buckley forever changed the way I thought about life, love, and using music as a language of expression. Andy Wallace glued it all together and presented it in Grace better than anyone else could’ve. I wish Jeff could’ve done more with Andy.

I adore the overall sound of the song Grace, the violins doing staccato in the second verse, the tone of the toms, the and of course Jeff’s voice.

Favorite song off the album? For me it’s the finisher, dream brother. Simply captivating ending to a work of musical art

[tomvomton]

And he reaches and reaches and reaches... Great analogy. Focus discribes him very well.

[Mossmagick]

Jeff Buckley was indeed a beautiful soul that had left us way too soon. But at least, we still have some sort of tangible thing to hold onto; his music.

[askyles]

I have been waiting my whole fucking life for this

[emilywalker]

I love Jeff Buckley! He changed my life!
