Tim Buckley: "Bye Bye Baby"
Two years onward. finances depleting and craving for recognition ripe, he released three rock albums, Greetings From L.A., Sefronia, and Look At The Fool. He did it the commercial way, but the albums weren't a success. Fundamentally Tim was unhappy with the systematic and shallow r&b structure of the lyrics and music; despite being a fan of the genre. Performances were impassioned and feeling withdrawn he went back to drug binges. On June 28 1975 he slipped back and started one at his friends house. Having diligently controlled his binging habit whilst on the road with his new material, his tolerance lowered and the combination of a large amount of drugs mixed with alcohol was too much. Witnessing Tim ingest as much as he had previously, his friend took him home thinking he was merely drunk. When his friend crouched down to ask how he was feeling, Tim softly said “Bye Bye Baby”, and passed away.
