tim was 22 years old here. can you imagine? barely into his twenties and already making music that few artists outside of jazz could ever hope to come close to touching. this is quite different from the album version of "come here woman", so i think it's safe to say a healthy amount of improvisation was involved in the performance. the fact that "starsailor" hasn't been remastered and re-released is nothing short of criminal. it's one of the most fearlessly original albums ever made by anyone.
Luckily the "Complete Albums" box came out recently, so you can pick up everything by him, individually packaged, from his debut to "Greetings from L.A." in one package!
Definitely one of the most fearlessly original albums ever made by anyone... He was a genius I think, the inventiveness on that album is surprising to listen to even now.
Once Upon a Time Long Ago In a far away land were people that played and listened experiencing music live in public as well as on Television. It was a time when looks like brown sweaters were superfluous to the real reason they were there. It looks like a very good quality wool. In those times musicians could play,sing, and not need autotunes or added enhancements. It was called REAL, REAL feel,soul ,musicianship. No fast fashion and polyester shiney bling. The music was enough. Everybody was content and brown sweaters were irrelevant. This was Cool and unpretentious. Real talent didn't need flashy distraction to be called music. If only you were listening with your ears not eyesight. Sad ending . Ah boohoo for you child.☮️😥🤬😫☠️🔥💦
Jeff may have denied Tim, but at a genetic level he had no choice. Jeff's mom must have been very high rate too, like Tim's. Thirty five years later I'm still blown away by Tim, and Jeff's music has always fascinated me because of the inate vocal similarity to his Dad. They were a gift to the world spanning two generations.
I had the great joy to see Timmy twice live in concert. Once at UMBC outside of Baltimore, 1968 i think, and in Richmond at VCU-1970 or so, if my memory serves me well. Both times i was so blown away we all just sat shocked at how great he was. we cried like babies when he died
@@kolnidur_ his son was better he's in the top 500 rolling stones best singers I think Tim buckely is on there (maybe) but he's lower on the list. Jeff is 168. On the list.
this is true jazz -blues.He didnt even concider himself or labeled him as '''jazz'' musician and he was creative as hell....In adition with nowdays posh jazz loby..... Come on ....Fucking genius,creative and hamble...Sits and dress hamble like a middle class casual person with a simple acoustic guitar...Damn dope and true...
Oh man, Tim was a jazzy dude equal to Miles Davis. They were both so cool it took twenty years to see how great they were, still are. I like it a lot, thanks.
@@briannemeth3296i mean, In A Silent Way was one of tims biggest influences during this era, it was one of the few records he actually owned because he was broke
if u like4 this u will like any of his last 3 albums. greetings from la sefronia look at the fool however i luv his middle 3 albums and enjoy his first 3. and i luv his kid,what a gift he was to us old buckley fans.
you can tell the influence he would have on later experimental musicians like Sonic Youth and such. He really gave popular rock music a kick in the ass.
Thank you for posting this footage, which documents my favourite phase of Tim's career (the smack-addled bit.) This is simply priceless, even if his sweater does need a wash..."Come Here Woman"?..."Come Hither & Attend To My Laundry", more like...I love his T.V. interview where he has a dig at the oil guzzlin' squares, man!
Amazing footage, thank you. Hard to say which version's BETTER, the album or this....I think it's cool that the album version seems as intuitive as this one does, just more instruments.
It's funny, I always found it hard to believe Jeff would ever have been influenced by Tim, but after watching this video, it's hard to believe Jeff could've never seen this and looked up to him... even down the way he moves his head when hitting the high notes is so similar
Yes. Yes. Yes. This performance let's me imagine what he must be like doing Sweet Surrender. Since Sweet Surrender doesn't seem to be available. This does nicely.
@wipers86 My understanding is that he had an F-212XL or F-412 early on and then had Guild make a custom model with some enhancements. There's some discussion of it in Lee Underwood's book (Tim's lead guitarist) if you want to know more... I don't remember all the details. Tim also sometimes played a Fender Electric XII (as on the Whistle Test videos). He had some sweet f---ing 12-strings, for sure.
Many many thanks ! I never thought I could watch this. Good version, good quality recording, Tim, Starsailor period... Incredible. I wonder if other songs from this show have been recorded. Do you know, laupsek ?
@katalukon Just a flat pick and incredible stamina. You can't see the pick, but his hand movements are the tip off, and at some points he repositions it between verses. He did use finger and thumbpicks sometimes, just not here.
@b0lly Actually, I'd have to dispute that if you count the Cardigan that Kurt Cobain rocked during the Nirvana unplugged performance. Nobody beats Buckley, but it has to be a tie.
Some movie director should really think about getting James Franco to portray him in a film because he looks somewhat like Tim Buckley, at least i see it.
yeah, I noticed that too, it kinda sounds like the drummer got really carried away and was trying to find his way home and if the drummer is lost everyone is
What happened to his sweater? Did he go swimming in a hot spring in it? And those high faces he's making are amazing! lol I need to try whatever he's on for myself. Though I really love the bass players pants.
wow u really destroyed "findingusernamesucks" i figure that he was just sayin and letting himself let carried away until he found this wall haha and he never saw it comin... nice review on tim's voice btw
jeff's interest and influences were much more wide ranging from Qwallii=sufi music from Pakistan to Purcells operatic aria Dido's lament to Led Zepplin and Bob Dylan. So much more I perferred the son but the father was interesting and original.

Very few artists inside of jazz touch this
He was pure genius
I think Starsailor has continually been in print on vinyl
this is the hardest anybody has rocked while wearing a brown sweater.
Joyce
I laughed so hard
I think this sweater was hand made by Mary,mother of his beautiful son,jeff.

This guy has one of the most badass voices ever.
To this day - way ahead of its time
idk free jazz was the 60s and Trout Mask Replica was 1969
That main riff is such a banger. I've had it in my head for weeks now. Tim was so ahead of his time
Please elaborate. THanks. WHich riff
@@alongalostaway Likely 3:02
Jeff once said, when accused of stealing material from Tim, "The only thing I ever stole from my father was a fleeting glimpse."

There'll never be another one like him...
He Had A Son (?)

@@husseymangtv i sure hope you're trolling here
@@kolnidur_ why compare them while they both were extremely good musicians with different styles despite some similarities in their vocals.
Wow, mind blown
big bang, universe, milky way, solar system, earth, this gentleman playing the drums.

More Coltrane than Miles, but I can dig it

That's where jeff gets his good looks and beautiful talent from ... Although jeff didn't grow up with tim he made his own unique vibe
The most beautiful voice - according Jacques Brel.
This angelic face astonishes you with such a beautiful Song...
GENIUS
All I can say is ICON
look at that sweater man
OMG!! LOVE HIS VOICE!!!
if u like4 this u will like any of his last 3 albums.
greetings from la
sefronia
look at the fool
however i luv his middle 3 albums
and enjoy his first 3.
and i luv his kid,what a gift he was to us old buckley fans.
Sefronia is the business!
2:58 ‘’I’m the king and I know it’’ face...
Well said...Glad to be in the company of fellow "Tim" followers
what a voice!
when Tim screams, it reminds me of his own son, Jeff. I'm glad his talent passed through to him.
Intense and brilliant!!!
Amazing
Tim I LOVE U!!
he went to places not on any map.
Error 404 ,tim just Left space and time. To find MamA

the Legend of tim. cheers X
Awesome! ❤
Wow, I didn't know that Dwight Shrute's father played drums!
COME HERE WOMAN
Heard this on on Rutgers radio the other day. Don't know what channel but the whole channel was great.
damn man i didn't realize till now how much tim and jeff sound a like vocal wise that is.
superb
Amazing footage, thank you. Hard to say which version's BETTER, the album or this....I think it's cool that the album version seems as intuitive as this one does, just more instruments.
Any muso’s out there that can tell me Tim’s tuning? I reckon drop D or open D but I’m not sure.
I LOVE this song & performance ♥️
Cheers
You got to admit, the big band element ie brass, made this special
No body does brass these days sadly, no horns or sax
holy jesus. so this is where jeff gets it from!
Much better than the album version......probably because it’s in the funk style of Greetings from L.A., Sefronia and Look at the Fool
perfect!!
It's funny, I always found it hard to believe Jeff would ever have been influenced by Tim, but after watching this video, it's hard to believe Jeff could've never seen this and looked up to him... even down the way he moves his head when hitting the high notes is so similar

O Maradona da música norte-americana...
Genial❗️
@VegaVelecka I prefer this version to the one on starsailor!

I wonder if other songs from this show have been recorded. Do you know, laupsek ?
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
I just realized, his shirt was brown until a second before they were done, then it turned white.
Tim is playing a Guild F512 12-string with double pickguard
(see why at 1:10 ) .
This is the top of the line model (with gold hardware).
WOW
@katalukon Just a flat pick and incredible stamina. You can't see the pick, but his hand movements are the tip off, and at some points he repositions it between verses. He did use finger and thumbpicks sometimes, just not here.
He goes so deep into himself it makes me shake, too: " ... like a powder keg and giving off sparks ..."
Absolute genius.Jeff just inherited his genes.
yes... he look s about 80% the same....and 70%?? about voice...?
At 5:50 he's wearing a brown sweater but at 5:53 it's white! Only noticed because I've enjoyed this performance so many times.
Psychedelic drugs + alcohol + women + raw talent = Tim Buckley.
awesome, no one is better at what he does.
❤️🔝
That riff is so sexy. 5/4.
Im sure his dad would of gladly given it to him anyway and been proud his son carried on his music
so enthralling... i just wish there were close-ups of lee underwood.
Is that Lee Underwood on guitar?
it was called video editing years ago and probably still is.I,m changing my sweater as I type.
bien
That 12 string ❤❤❤❤
The drummer makes me laugh.
but hes a hell of a drummer.
@@ricardogigante881 I'll say! He fucking kills it on "Monterey"!
just wish his voice was mixed higher... great performance, catharsis!
6/29/1975-6/29/2024❤️😪🌹🌹
@b0lly
Actually, I'd have to dispute that if you count the Cardigan that Kurt Cobain rocked during the Nirvana unplugged performance. Nobody beats Buckley, but it has to be a tie.
Bonkers smacky capable of genius
You couldn't be more wrong!! the trumpet is integral to this piece.
Some movie director should really think about getting James Franco to portray him in a film because he looks somewhat like Tim Buckley, at least i see it.
That drummer is seriously the most ridiculously looking man I have ever seen.
Him and Jeff were very alike, dnt ya tink...
god it sounds so good until 5:04 and then it sounds so comically horrible holy shit
yeah, I noticed that too, it kinda sounds like the drummer got really carried away and was trying to find his way home and if the drummer is lost everyone is
It sounds good to me
who made his swaeter?
I never new Jeff dad was a talented musician. Definite similarities
guitar Lee Underwood /John Balkin on bass / buzz gardner , trumpet .....drummer Art Tripp ? doesn´t look like Art..
Anybody know if there’s another recording of this version out there?
Bunk Gardner, ex-Mothers of Invention is in the offending green sweater!
Drummer is Maury Baker.
White man with black voice!
R.I.P. Tim
What happened to his sweater? Did he go swimming in a hot spring in it? And those high faces he's making are amazing! lol I need to try whatever he's on for myself. Though I really love the bass players pants.
I'm pretty sure I shouldn't of been born in 1995 :"D hahaha
Godo
shamanic revery and a voyage flight
@TheSegalman what a great privilege...
wow u really destroyed "findingusernamesucks" i figure that he was just sayin and letting himself let carried away until he found this wall haha and he never saw it comin... nice review on tim's voice btw
Looks a bit like John Marshall (soft machine)
Was not happening that night.
Not my type,but it's a good song...powerful
Sweater choice is forgiven MOI and Frank were a class act.
jeff's interest and influences were much more wide ranging from Qwallii=sufi music from Pakistan to Purcells operatic aria Dido's lament to Led Zepplin and Bob Dylan. So much more I perferred the son but the father was interesting and original.
Perhaps Maury Baker?
I was so blinded by the Green sweater I hardly noticed it.
