Announcing: So Real: Songs From Jeff Buckley

“This will be the perfect CD to recommend to someone who’s never heard of Jeff. For this new album, we’ve gathered 14 tracks from various previous releases (including the Grace EP’s and two previously unreleased songs) and given the listener a well-rounded picture-window sized view of Jeff's entire catalog. We wanted to model it after the mixed tapes that Jeff would put together of a favorite artist.” – Mary Guibert (Jeff Buckley’s mother)

One of rock ’s hardest lessons is that the impact of an artist’s career is often not measured by the time he spends among us, but rather by the intensity with which his music reverberates after he is gone. Jeff Buckley yielded one original studio album on Columbia Records during his lifetime, the impossibly glorious Grace, released in the summer of 1994. It made its way onto many a fan and critic’s list as one of the most important recordings of the ’90s.

So Real: Songs From Jeff Buckley contains fourteen definitive performances of Jeff Buckley’s finest original songs and signature covers. What you hear is the bold ambition, serious work ethic and glorious achievement of a very full life—a legacy that still grows a decade after his passing.
