Resembling at times a soft-sung Robert Plant, Buckley was an intuitive vocalist capable of dizzying arabesques and choir-boy sweetness. He is joined here by a tight band for 10 tracks highlighting his stylistic range--Pearl Jam bluesy on "Eternal Life," impossibly serene on Leonard Cohen's "Hallelujah," art-school noisy on "So Real," Led Zep daring on "Mojo Pin." Unorthodox, this was the debut of '94. --Jeff Bateman

 Just 2 or 3 songs November 3, 2008
J. Orr (toms river, nj)
Got this cd based on the song Hallelujah and everyone giving it such great reviews. Let me just say I am completely disappointed. I listened to it twice to give it the benefit of the doubt and found there are are only 2 or 3 songs I would ever wanna hear on this album ever again.
 This is a must have album~!!! October 16, 2008

Not sure why I'd not heard about this album until last week. Thank goodness for Amazon's recommendation!
What a gift this young man left us so shortly before his tragic death! That voice, oh his voice!! This is timeless, beautiful, lush album...
I would have wanted to know before I purchased this album that I would become addicted. Hallelujah is so raw, you can feel it in your bones. Corpus Christ Carol... the vocal range, the vocal control is almost unearthly. Then going into Eternal Life, you cannot believe it's still him, his ability to move his voice around a song is uncanny.
This is a treasure of music, lyrics, melodies, and that hauntingly beautiful voice.

All I've heard for almost 15 years now is 'Like, oh my God, Jeff Buckley's music is so, like, beautiful...' Well I decided to drink the Kool-aid and buy the CD- I figured, 'Hey, I like tragic rock stars, I like beautiful music when it's done right. I'll give it a shot.' I'm sorry I can't give a review to all the songs because I was always either asleep or had left the room by song six. He's the classic singer without a song- his lyrics are full of the type of mawkish, frat-boy pathos that sorority girls swoon over and anyone with a brain rolls their eyes or cringes at. He's nothing compared to the Cowboy Junkies or Nick Drake or Elliot Smith or Simon or Garfunkel. I only gave it two stars because it is indeed a good cd if you can't fall asleep. Another case of early death making someone into an undeserved legend. Maybe he might have matured into the genuine article but I guess we'll never know.

I am a big fan of jeff Buckley. His heartfelt delivery of songs is only matched by his insightful and thoughful lyrics. His style at times especially on this album comes close to a wonderful new singer-songwriter Arrica Rosein her new album La La Lost.
So Real August 28, 2008
Sunil D. Singh (Sunnyvale, CA)
If you've got a thing for music then you should enjoy this. You can feel Buckley's emotion and soul come through in the recording. You can hear the imperfections and feel how real it is. Beautiful lyrics along with his voice take you away. If you listen to music and truly enjoy doing so, then you will not be disappointed.
Most people will probably buy this album for Jeff Buckley's cover of Hallelujah. That's a perfectly legitimate reason as he definitely recorded the definitive version. However once you start listening to the other tracks, you realize you just hit the jackpot. "Lilac Wine," "Lover, You Should've Come Over," and "So Real" are great ones to start off with. His death was tragic, but his legend will live on with his music.
