Tim Buckley: 'Tim Buckley' – The First Album
Tinted with psychedelic melodies and written with a lot of input from the poetic Beckett, this innocent folk-rock album was the starting point of an influence alternating career. Literary and comparatively prudent, it is less sullen and brooding in its lyrics than Tim's solo-written later work. The folk influenced and intellectually limiting structure of this first album led him to scathe it later in his career.Despite this debut album granting little recognition, he showed great adroit and ventured out to college and alley-way bars throughout New York, garnering a reputation as an adept act and vocalist in the process.
'60's Impact'
The late sixties were a progressive time in music, with the Beatles Sgt Pepper's album embodying the movement. Experimental psychedelic music was being produced under and overground in the scene, and the influences of the time seeped into Tim's second album, Goodbye And Hello. The influence boded well for the success of his second release, which was his only to penetrate the top 200 music chart - peaking at 177. Five of the songs on the album were written solely by Tim, marking the start of him taking the reigns of his recordings.
