The Dream Belongs To Me
7/13/2005, AMG

The folks at Manifesto have done an excellent job in keeping the music of Tim Buckley on the market over the past ten years, even going so far as to release three highly...  more >

Greetings From L.A.
7/13/2005, AMG

Stepping back from the swooping avant-garde touches of Starsailor for a fairly greasy, funky, honky tonk set of songs, the opening lines of Greetings from L.A. set the tone:...  more >

Honeyman: Recorded Live 1973
7/13/2005, AMG

A previously unreleased live 1973 radio broadcast, in excellent sound, that offers a valuable supplement to Buckley's often disappointing final albums. Buckley's last LPs...  more >

Sefronia
1/1/1974, LAUNCH, Dave DiMartino

Once I Was: The BBC Sessions
7/13/2005, AMG

All but one of these eight songs from 1968 and 1974 are from the BBC. Five of the tracks were recorded in April 1968 for the John Peel show, and previously released by...  more >

Dream Letter: Live In London, 1968
1/1/1990, LAUNCH, Dave DiMartino

A wonderful live document issued well after anyone might've ever expected it, this features Buckley in his Happy Sad prime. An absolute...  more >

Dream Letter: Live In London, 1968
7/13/2005, AMG

This, like so many Enigma releases, was literally a dream project, and carries a lot of energy and love with it, in the music and the performance. Recorded in London in...  more >

Lorca

His last album on Elektra--originally issued after Blue Afternoon--contains a first side which may be Buckley's strangest, most intimate music...  more >

Lorca

Buckley stunned and, to a rare degree, alienated fans with the dissonant, at times wearying, avant-garde exercises in vocal gymnastics that took up the entire first side of...  more >

Starsailor
1/1/1971, LAUNCH, Dave DiMartino

Buckley's most inaccessible album is an absolute masterpiece; "Song To The Siren"--once performed on a Monkees TV show--is included...  more >

Tim Buckley
7/13/2005, AMG

Buckley's 1966 debut was the most straightforward and folk-rock-oriented of his albums. The material has a lyrical and melodic sophistication that was astounding for a...  more >

Happy Sad
1/1/1969, LAUNCH, Dave DiMartino

Probably Buckley's most accessible and timeless album, this mostly mellow album borrows moods from Miles Davis and Fred Neil and takes them another place entirely. Between...  more >

Happy Sad
7/13/2005, AMG
