Description
'Grace' is an audacious debut album, filled with sweeping choruses, bombastic arrangements, searching lyrics, and above all, the richly textured voice of Buckley himself, which resembled a cross between Robert Plant, Van Morrison, and his father Tim. And that's a fair starting point for his music: Grace sounds like a Led Zeppelin album written by an ambitious folkie with a fondness for lounge jazz. At his best the soaring title track, 'Last Goodbye' and the mournful 'Lover, You Should've Come Over' — Buckley's grasp met his reach with startling results; at its worst, Grace is merely promising.
