Like father, like son

A tribute album to Tim and Jeff Buckley reveals strong musical polarities in spite of them having little contact, writes Dan Rule.
SINCE Jeff Buckley's death in 1997, the Buckley legend has grown into one of the more fascinating and enduring in popular culture.
During their short lives, both Jeff and his father Tim created some of the most influential and progressive music of their respective eras.
Tim, who was one of the most adventurous and eclectic experimental musicians of the late '60s and early '70s, released nine albums before dying of a heroin overdose in 1975 aged 28; his son Jeff released one of the most significant albums of the past two decades, 1994's Grace, before drowning in 1997 at the age of 30.
The pair's US biographer David Browne says of Dream Brother - the new Buckley tribute album, inspired by his 2003 book of the same name: "There's a timelessness to the best of their music, whether it's Grace or whether it's some of Tim's records like Starsailor or Blue Afternoon or Oh Happy Sad. None of those records are dated."
