I heard there was a secret pod, that a few fans played while they took a jog. But you don’t really care for music podcasts, do you? Well, then check out the Daily or something because this week we’re talking about Jeff Buckley (or is it Buck Jeffley?), and his 1994 album “Grace”. This is Buckley’s only studio album released by during his life, and it has become a seminal pop record over the last couple decades. We talk about some of the many artists that have borrowed from Buckley’s sound and the many musicians that influenced him. We also discuss the mixed blessing of his iconic cover of "Hallelujah", and highlight Buckley’s emotionally moving vocal performance, particularly his impressive wails (or is it whales?). Continuing the odd wordplay theme, we workshop some potential album titles. Also, Brandon reveals his intense love of Bob Seger, Joe tries in vain to sound like Freddie Mercury, and Matt blows our minds with a new theory of time. Join us. It’ll be so real.
Be sure to support the artists by purchasing "Grace" on iTunes or wherever you get your music.
