Product Description
Tim Buckley’s work was remarkable for its reach and range, with numerous stylistic shifts, including folk, sex-funk and a sort of vocal avant-garde jazz, during his eight year recording career, from his December 1966 debut to ‘Look At The Fool’, released in November 1974, seven months before his death from an accidental heroin overdose, aged 28.

As for his voice it was a dazzlingly flexible instrument, capable of octave leaps and the sort of daring normally expected of the free jazz giants. This ‘best of’ charts this fearless artist’s progress from teen folkie to starsailing voyager at the forefront of the radically unusual.

I already have this one, and I'm happy enough with it.

If you want the beautiful version of Song To The Siren done on The Monkees TV show, this is the place to get it.

Ugh. They can't just reissue "Starsailor: The Album," can they?

(Or for that matter any of the other Bizarre/Straight titles in limbo?)

Ditto, and ditto; I already have the 2-CD compilation mentioned above, and I've been looking for "Starsailor" for years (I have tracked down the other hard-to find titles); on the plus side, this looks to have more songs from "Starsailor" than the "Morning Glory" compilation has. Let me mention another wonderful version of "Song of the Siren" he recorded: on the "Works in Progress" CD on Rhino Handmade.
