What a ridiculous talent (listening now). Such a shame he left so soon. He's my Doogie.

The thing that pissed me off more than anything: this supreme talent, who only had time on earth to record one album, died doing something I did all the time as a kid: jumping in the Mississippi for a swim. It doesn't make sense how he went out.

Mystery White Boy
Grace

Mystery White boy and Sketches were both posthumous releases. Sketches, if I remember correctly, was the followup album that Buckley was working on when he died. I can't really listen to either of those two as "albums," more like bsides and unfinished demos. Maybe that's because I've put Grace on a pedestal, though.
