Death meaning relief." -- Jeff Buckley (Interview, Rip It Up, February 1996) "... I started working for Steve Berkowitz, Buckley's A&R man, right about the time Jeff started the Grace recording sessions at Bearsville Studios in Woodstock, NY. Every week producer Andy Wallace would send down mixes of what had been recorded, and it was obvious that this was going to be an amazing debut album. The sessions started with Jeffy recording all by himself. He did about 30 takes of Leonard Cohen's "Hallelujah", and all 30 or so were pretty different (the album version is a composite of the best parts of 3 takes). He also recorded 3 or 4 versions of "Corpus Christi Carol", and several other cover songs that would not make the album - "Calling You", "Sweet Thing", "Night Flight" and "Alligator Wine."" -- Webb M, NYC (Review, armchairreviews.com, 2000) |
