Music reviews of So Real: Songs from Jeff Buckley
Music Review: new to jeff buckley
Rating: 2 Stars
I bought the album for the song hallelujah since I heard it on Sopranos and I didn't know who sang it but it stayed in my mind. When I heard Xfactor winner had recorded it I thought another great song ruined as I'm not into the over dramatic singers they churn out every season. I can't bothered to watch plastic pop. I have listened to the cd a few times but I find it a bit gloomy, although he has a good voice and the music is great I'm taking my time to warm to it. But I love music and wont dismiss it. I love to listen to talented people and he was very talented, my advice, never listen to it if you are dpressed cos he won't cheer you up!
Description of So Real: Songs from Jeff Buckley
Import 14-track pressing features tracks from his two studio albums and includes two rarities, 'So Real' (Live and Acoustic in Japan - non album version/ promo single) and 'I Know it's Over' . (Previously Unreleased - Smiths cover from a session at Sony Studios that was edited for broadcast on WNEW on April 6, 1995. It was not included on the radio broadcast.) Other highlights include 'Last Goodbye', 'Forget Her', 'Everybody Here Wants You' and more. All of the tracks lifted from Grace are pulled from the remastered tracks that featured on the Legacy Edition. Sony. 2007.Among the legions of rockers who died way too young--including Jeff Buckley's father, Tim--few have approached the artistic range and seemingly limitless potential on display here. In the decade since Buckley's death, there has been such a flood of posthumous releases that it might be hard to remember that he issued only a four-cut live EP and a studio debut album while he was alive. This anthology serves as an effective introduction for the initiate, showing how Buckley could rock with the slash-and-burn intensity of Led Zeppelin on "Eternal Life (Road Version)," turn rapturous with the reverie of "Lover, You Should've Come Ove," and cover the likes of Edith Piaf ("Je N'en Connais Pas La Fin") and Leonard Cohen (his by now iconic transformation of "Hallelujah"). Completists will need this for the live versions of "So Real" and the Smiths' "I Know It's Over," previously unreleased commercially. Whether Buckley would ever have been able to balance the control that mature artistry requires and the ecstatic abandon that distinguished him, such raw talent continues to startle. --Don McLeese
