Product description

Jeff Buckley's 'Sketches for My Sweetheart The Drunk' is a mesmerising collection of tracks that showcases the artist's unique talent and emotional depth. Released on 26 May 1998 through Columbia/Legacy, this album is a testament to Buckley's innovative spirit and genre-bending style. With a duration of 1 hour and 41 minutes, the album takes the listener on a sonic journey through a diverse range of sounds and emotions.

From the hauntingly beautiful 'The Sky Is a Landfill' to the poignant 'Everybody Here Wants You', each track on the album is a masterclass in atmospheric storytelling and poetic lyrics. The inclusion of tracks like 'Nightmares By The Sea' and 'New Year's Prayer' demonstrates Buckley's ability to craft songs that are both deeply personal and universally relatable.

The album also features a number of experimental and avant-garde tracks, such as 'Witches' Rave' and 'Murder Suicide Meteor Slave', which showcase Buckley's willingness to push the boundaries of conventional music. The live recording of 'Satisfied Mind' at WFMU in East Orange, NJ, adds a sense of intimacy and spontaneity to the album, highlighting Buckley's skill as a live performer.

Throughout 'Sketches for My Sweetheart The Drunk', Jeff Buckley's soaring vocals and versatile guitar work are on full display, making this album a must-listen for fans of the artist and anyone interested in exploring the possibilities of contemporary music. With its rich textures, haunting melodies, and emotional intensity, this album is a powerful tribute to Buckley's enduring legacy as a singer, songwriter, and musician.

This is a 2018 Reissue released as a 3LP set.

Jeff's Unfinished Masterpiece
5 out of 5 stars
ivduyqzyejrijaysNovember 5, 2025United States🇺🇸
To me, the first disk stands as his finest recorded work. Posthumously released, these tracks were initially intended for an album named My Sweetheart the Drunk. I often ponder how it might have turned out if Jeff had the chance to complete the album himself. My absolute favorite is Vancouver; the lyrics are stunning, and his composition and performance are truly exceptional. The second disk features a few alternate takes of songs from disk 1, with the remainder being private recordings. I'm not sure if he would have wanted these shared with the public. It feels like the record label just wanted to issue a double album, so they threw in a bunch of extra tracks to capitalize on his legendary status.

Totally agree, the audio quality is amazing! The material's top-notch too, particularly on sides A through D. If you're aiming to be the trendy one, you might wanna claim that sides E and F are incredibly awesome. Well, not exactly, I had a chuckle while listening to those...
