You have a massive hole in your CD/MP3 collection

( mamilla_sarsum FWAPs for Jesus, Sat 21 Jul 2007, 22:37, archived)

massive tiny

<s>tiny</s> Goatse sized
I hope this markup works

6 gigs of mp3 and over 300 cd albums....
i've not heard of him....
( SkUG is glad to be out of hospital (stupid lungs), Sat 21 Jul 2007, 22:42, archived)

his dad was way better

( Mighty Nibus who dares gins, Sat 21 Jul 2007, 22:44, archived)

You can't compare them
They were completely different.
( Spazzcat jam out with your clam out, Sat 21 Jul 2007, 22:48, archived)

generally
things to be compared are different
( Mighty Nibus who dares gins, Sat 21 Jul 2007, 23:03, archived)

I meant you can't make a value judgement
If you like Tim Buckley more then that's just personal preference, but I don't think you can say either was better than the other as they were both fantastic at what they did. They both had completely different styles.

I don't mean to sound like I'm starting an argument....I'm really not
( Spazzcat jam out with your clam out, Sat 21 Jul 2007, 23:07, archived)

yep
no, I'm just being an arse :)

my view on JB is clouded by the fact that a guy I knew worshipped him, and he was a total knob
( Mighty Nibus who dares gins, Sat 21 Jul 2007, 23:13, archived)

Oh, never a good start
He did some beautiful stuff, his best performances were when he was just on his own with his guitar. The Live At Siné EP is just him in a cafe doing his thing, lovely lovely lovely.

Tim Buckley scares me a little bit, I think it was Peanut Man that did it....my dad loves him though.

He was more of a cult phenomenon
And another one of those who became more successful after he died.

But he is generally regarded as being one of the most influential musicians of the 90s.

oh gawd
90's music... pfft

he's some sort of country and western junkie who's dead

( Cockweasle http://b3nn3tt.mybrute.com, Sat 21 Jul 2007, 22:50, archived)

eh?

( mamilla_sarsum FWAPs for Jesus, Sat 21 Jul 2007, 22:51, archived)

jeff buckley
or some sort of music like that. i don't really know much about music that's not made by machines or angry men

Maybe you're thinking of Gram Parsons

nuff!

He didn't do country and western
Nor was he a junkie.

You're thinking of Tim Buckley, his dad. Died of an overdose etc.

Fair enough lol

( Spazzcat jam out with your clam out, Sat 21 Jul 2007, 23:13, archived)

he is a shit songwriter
who if he did more than the 1 or 2 albums worth of "music" he did, would prob be hated by now

hated because he is a boy touching bastwank
( executiverocker is going to post a thread on Reddit, Sat 21 Jul 2007, 23:11, archived)

That would explain the massive loyal fanbase
The hundreds of bands listing him as a primary influence, the tribute concerts, the memorials...

Ouchie
Jeff Buckley is my fucking god.

And yet this made me chuckle.

I guess I'm just evil...
( Spazzcat jam out with your clam out, Sat 21 Jul 2007, 22:47, archived)

I laughed also
yet cried when he died.
does that make me an evil softy?
( sPUNKer do your pictures for nothing get abuse for free, Sat 21 Jul 2007, 23:01, archived)

Yes, yes it does.
I got it all arse over tip, I was too young to know about him when he was alive, and I only found out he was dead after I'd fallen in love with Grace after recommendation from a mate, and THEN I cried.
