Jeff Buckley – Grace [Limited Gold Vinyl LP, Italy Import]

Description

Released August 23, 1994, Grace is Jeff Buckley’s only complete studio album, produced by Andy Wallace. This 25th anniversary limited edition on gold vinyl commemorates one of the most celebrated debut albums in alternative rock history. Recorded at Bearsville Studios in Woodstock, New York, with musicians including Gary Lucas, Mick Grondahl, Michael Tighe and Matt Johnson, the album showcases Buckley’s extraordinary four-octave vocal range and his ability to move seamlessly between delicate intimacy and explosive emotional intensity. After Buckley’s death in 1997, its critical standing grew and it was praised by musicians including Jimmy Page, Robert Plant, Bob Dylan and David Bowie.

The 10-track album balances seven original compositions with three carefully chosen covers. “Grace,” “Last Goodbye,” “So Real” and “Eternal Life” were released as singles. “Hallelujah,” Buckley’s interpretation of the Leonard Cohen song, has become one of the most iconic recordings in popular music. “Lover, You Should’ve Come Over” demonstrates his gift for crafting heart-wrenching ballads, while “Mojo Pin” opens the album with serpentine melodies and dramatic crescendos. The covers of “Lilac Wine” and Benjamin Britten’s “Corpus Christi Carol” reveal Buckley’s eclectic influences, and “Dream Brother” closes the album with hypnotic, layered vocals and shifting dynamics.

This Italy import pressing on gold colored vinyl offers a visually distinctive presentation of an album that has sold over 3.4 million copies worldwide. The limited edition status makes it a desirable item for those who recognize Grace as a defining work of 1990s alternative rock. The vinyl captures the warmth of Buckley’s voice and the atmospheric production that made the original recording so compelling.
