I think your the first one to mention a tool album so far.
I like tool, awesome rhythms n stuff.
I\'d also have to agree with Rush - 2112 being on a top 10.
3-4-05:  Inspired, enlightened, surprised, excited, confused, evoked euphoria, focused, newfound faith in music.

Sorry, but I don\'t rate it that highly. Competent, yes, but there is something about his voice - bores me in the same way as Radiohead grate on my ears. I have always failed to see why Jeff Buckley is accorded such status, especially when he is compared with singer-songwriting genii like Neil Young, Bob Dylan, Joni Mitchell etc - IMHO, he just doesn\'t make the cut. Now his father, on the other hand, really does deserve all the plaudits he\'s received - the first four albums, in particular trully do deserve the epithet, \'classic\'.


I totally understand because it is all opinion here. so at the same time i completely disagree with you. to me his voice is FAR from boring (if anything at times it\'s over the top and can be too much) and so much different than thom yorke\'s voice, not to mention the music isnt nearly as suicidal. i find Grace to be absolutely superb, the more i listen the more i think so. the songs are beautiful and have more emotion than almost any collection on an album ive ever heard. even his two covers are A-material.. its hard to find a man, not to mention an alternative rocker, from any generation than can make a song Nina Simone made famous sound so pure and natural and make it all his own. upsetting he died so young, huge things couldve happened.

Don\'t get me wrong, I mean his voice has the same effect on me as TY\'s voice. Both guys have written some good songs, I just don\'t like the voices.

And I love the bit about "not nearly as suicidal".

This what I love about this place - (mostly) mature discussion and respect for everyone\'s taste - well, usually! ;)

As creator of this thread, I am glad to see it back in action, although I\'d probably change a handful of my original picks from August.

I looked back at mine...and i feel that way too.  I honestly have a Top 20...and they rotate around if I am in certain phase of life.

i had to scan back through to see if anyone had

Jeff Buckley - Grace

on their list, and it seems ill be the first to make mention. im sure most everyone has heard this album which makes me :hscratch: at first i felt foolish for letting this cd somehow slip by me all these years, but now im just excited that i have something this fucking good be this new to me at 23 years old. i cant get enough of this album right now, wowzas. anyone?


nick - just wanted to say that thanks to pitchie\'s recent bump of this thread, my review of your above post, and *another* friend recommending i listen to Grace this week, that i\'ve decided to give it a first listen tonight. i am typing this as Dream Brother closes out the album, but i can tell you with certainty that i\'ve absolutely liked what i\'ve heard so far, and i look forward to giving the album another listen when i will be able to pay more attention to it.

so... thank you.

I\'ll bite. Just went to STM and there\'s Grace from 1994 and the Grace Legacy Edition from 2004. Snatching the legacy and will check it out.

Great news dave!

Grace has without a doubt stood the test of time for me.. It is a phenomenal soundtrack to a vicious winter like this one. It gets better and better the first 20 times you listen to it. The title track alone is worth the buy, but then you get 9 other great tracks of extremely eclectic material that hits EVERY mood.

Todd-- the Legacy Edition has a solid short documentary on the making of the album. You\'ll enjoy it. There are some really cool bonus tracks on Disc 2 too.

It\'s exciting to get that first spin out of this album, then so depressing when realizing what else probably would have happened had he not died so young. Rock and roll.....
