An angelic voice and virtuosic guitar playing make this a masterpiece

The magical, aptly titled Grace is Jeff Buckley’s only fully realised album—and one that has grown in stature since its 1994 release. Buckley’s angelic voice recalls his famous folkie father, Tim, as it floats over the album's heady songwriting and wild-eyed guitar virtuosity. Brace yourself: the serpentine melodies, tormented climaxes and whispering intimacy of the best moments will leave you breathless. These highlights include the title track, "Lover, You Should've Come Over” and the luminous cover of Leonard Cohen’s “Hallelujah”.
