Why spread it out over time when you can have it all now? Here are some live and rare tracks from some of my favorite people:
- Jeff Buckley – Satisfied Mind. This track proves that Jeff was simultaneously ahead of and behind his time. This track has an almost Delta blues feel to it.
- Sugarbomb – Killer Queen. This track blows my mind how they get a sound this great on an acoustic radio performance. The vocal harmonies slay me.
- Jellyfish – The King is Half-Undressed. Speaking of vocal harmonies on acoustic radio performances, here’s Jellyfish with one of their trickier multi-part vocal harmony tunes.
- Travis with Jason Falkner – Wichita Lineman. Speaking of Jellyfish, here’s Jason Falkner playing with Travis on the Jimmy Webb/Glen Campbell hit.
- Imperial Drag – Are You a Boy or a Girl? More Jellyfish connections with Roger’s post-JF band.
- Matthew Sweet – Girlfriend. Early live version. Go get the new Deluxe Edition 2-CD set of Girlfriend, in stores now.
NOTE: Bandwidth increased, tunes re-uploaded.
I’m working my way through these now. The Sugarbomb live cut is, unsurprisingly, fantastic. I expected no less given the harmonies on ‘Bully,’ though.
The choir sings again in the church of Saint Buckley. He plays and sings like it were a prayer or a hymn.
Way way nice cuts. Always been a big big fan of ‘Girlfriend’, and to hear it while it’s still a baby. Verrrry nice.
This Jellyfish song was on the very first tape a very dear friend made for me 2 months after we met back in 1996…how nice to hear it again.
more please…..
Really happy to come across this page… love, love, love, sugarbomb (somehow robbed of a huge career, sigh) jeff buckley, jellyfish and matthew sweet (ok, travis tends to get a little too wussy for me 😉
So, thanks for posting these rare gems!
