Grace (New LP)

‘Grace’ is an audacious debut album, filled with sweeping choruses, bombastic arrangements, searching lyrics, and above all, the richly textured voice of Buckley himself, which resembled a cross between Robert Plant, Van Morrison, and his father Tim. And that’s a fair starting point for his music: ‘Grace’ sounds like a Led Zeppelin album written by an ambitious folkie with a fondness for lounge jazz.
