5.0 out of 5 stars Superb compilation of a unique talent whose memory lives on after 30 years, July 7, 2007

This review is from: Tim Buckley: My Fleeting House (DVD)

Collecting together all known film recordings of Tim Buckley over the 7 years from 1967 on the Monkees show (an excellent acoustic version of "Song to the Siren") through to 1974 on the Old Grey Whistle Test (backed by members of Family, performing a very heartfelt version of Fred Neil's "The Dolphins") just before his death the following year, this is a compilation which was clearly put together with a lot of love and devotion to the man's memory.

Choose to either just listen to the amazing variety of video performances alone or instead add the three interview commentaries before each song performance of his long serving guitarist (Lee Underwood); his lyricist (Larry Beckett)and his biographer(David Browne) and you get everything put beautifully into historical context.

The man may have been dead for over 30 years before this compilation was put together but this DVD shows very well what a unique but undervalued talent he was - the US answer to Nick Drake.

5.0 out of 5 stars Much much more than nostalgia, June 19, 2007

This review is from: Tim Buckley: My Fleeting House (DVD)

I was just beginning my life long passion with music in '67 when I ran across Buckley. His early albums mesmerized me and I've never been without some incarnation of the first three since, either LP or CD. When LORCA came out I went with it up to a point, but admit I totally lost the thread of where Buckley was going by STARSAILOR. This DVD, which presents a very nice span of clips from throughout his career gives a new appreciation to all phases of an artist who pushed the creative envelope hard (achieving damn near commercial suicide in the attempt). When I watched the later era performances I felt guilty for abandoning Buckley in his later phases, but it takes a maturity to appreciate this material I didn't have at the time. Now I find it inspiring, magical, transcendent.

The DVD is a "must have" for anyone with an interest in this amazing talent, and it's great to finally see these performances in high quality.
