“It was night in the lonesome October
Of my most immemorial year:
It was hard by the dim lake of Auber,
In the misty mid region of Weir –
It was down by the dank tarn of Auber,
In the ghoul-haunted woodland of Weir.”
~ From “Ulalume” By Edgar Allan Poe

JEFF BUCKLEY
“ORIGINAL ALBUM CLASSICS”
NEW BOX SET 3 CD
*********************************************************
JEFF BUCKLEY- “ORIGINAL ALBUM CLASSICS”
Label: Sony UK
Recording information
This “three-fer” from Sony features three of Jeff Buckley’s live recordings, including 1993’s “Live at Sin-é”, 2000’s “Mystery White Boy”, and 2001’s “Live a l’Olympia”, all of which dutifully capture the late singer/songwriter’s legendary vocal prowess and fearless guitar work. While the title, “Original Album Classics”, may be a bit misleading (there are no studio tracks to be found here), these performances are every bit as riveting as anything on “Grace” or” Sketches for My Sweetheart the Drunk” ~ James Christopher Monger

Producer: Mary Guibert, Michael Tighe
Distributor: Sony Music Entertainment
