    I always come back to this video. Such a classic. Who knows what more this man could have accomplished if he hadn't passed away so young?

    I met tim buckley in 1975. I was 19 years old. I did not know anything about him. the bar that I frequented had all these flyers on the doors and walls announcing his arrival. 2 nites only. I must say I was not all that impressed the first nite. by the second nite something clicked for me. I don,t know what it was but I was in awe. I had the great fortune to meet him and stayed with him back at the hotel. he was leaving in the morning. It was one of the best times in my life. I am 58 now. I still feel like I did when I met him at 19. watching some of his videos, I still kinda tear up. he was a sweet man and I am so glad I got to meet him.

    The Old Grey Whistle Test producer Michael Appleton said that this is his favourite all time Whistle Test performance. Appleton died in 2020, his legacy is gifting us these timeless beautiful performances. Tim Buckley is majestic here.

    The looks and actions between father and son are mind blowing. I grew up estranged from my biological father and throughout my early life I was told how much my "actions" were like his. Now after seeing Tim and mentally comparing he and Jeff, I totally understand.

      I have a step brother who had never met his biological Father(my dad). Me and my Grandmother contacted my step brother once he was 16. To say the least we were shocked by his mannerism, actions, and personality. He was the spitting image of my father, he was very similar to my father, it warmed my heart, & shocked my family. I call it a pitiful serendipity.

    I've been infatuated with this video for over a year now. Tim Buckley's performance of this song is haunting, it almost feels like a 'farewell' performance. He sings 'Dolphins' as if he were putting a cadence onto his entire life up until this point.

    • @cstrongman
      @cstrongman 9 หลายเดือนก่อน +3

      he kind of was. i heard a story that someone asked what the songs dolphins meant to him, Tim allegedly went off essentially detailing what happened with his abandoned son, how the song was a metaphor for his life story almost... only for the other person to say, oh no, dolphins was a song about something much simpler (i forget what exactly). he was a tortured soul, god bless him and jeff

Someone states that they feel Tim Buckley is underrated all these years later, has a lovely voice, and this song is amazing, so you bizarrely decide to 'argue the point', opening with the snide juvenile "ummm" then explaining to the misguided/mistaken original commenter that Tim Buckley in fact "isn't really very talented" because "other stuff had already been out for decades", and of course considering "everything else leading up to his time". What the fuck are you even talking about? Those guitars are not out of tune, and 'ear retching' is not a thing. Hope this helps. Maybe take a break from the internet, like forever.

      Both of them were talented as hell--as both singers and songwriters--that's why it's such a shame that they both passed at such early ages. Just got a 5 CD set by T. Buckley (of his first 5 albums) and was glad to hear a lot of his stuff I'd never heard before. Loved the hell out of J. Buckley's Grace,too---still think it's one of the best albums of the '90s.

      Fred Neil's is still far superior in my opinion in due to not only his hauntingly rich, baritone voice and guitar, but the song is almost always sung best by the Muse from which it flowed. Case in point was Harry Nilssons' popish covering of Fred Neil's "Everybody's Talking at Me". Long live the memory of music's unknown great.

  • @tundratunes
    @tundratunes ปีที่แล้ว +5

    All star cast doing THE definitive cover of Fred Neil's Dolphins. The live version on Tim's posthumously released Dream Letter: Live in London, is also astonishing. However, to see this cast of characters from Family (Charlie Whitney, guitar), King Crimson (Ian Wallace, drums) and session player/master bassist Tim Hinkley is bracing in the extreme. They probably had all of 2 days to rehearse for this. Put this up against anything in modern music and you realise what we lost with the passing this era of music. My son is only 11 and he loves exploring my 6000+ vinyl records, yet he cannot stand anything played on modern radio. He has not yet discovered Fred Neil and Tim Buckley. He's still into Jimi, Beatles, Who, Cream etc. But someday he'll pop the needle onto something by Tim and Fred and just go --- WOW!😅

    And all about the time

    I saw Tim play at the very first Knebworth in 74... Having driven all night with 14 of my mates in an old white transit (Yup! Those were the days) we arrived about 8am and they were still putting the finishing touches to the stage. We had our tickets so they let us in. We feel asleep in a (more or less) empty field, only to be woken up about Noon by a roar as Sensational Alex Harvey Band came on to the Intro of Rambo Rules.. and 80,000 people behind us....What a Day! We all got sunburn, but the 2 best acts of the day were Tim Buckley (& Band) and Van Morrison. Doobies were oaky(ish) But people started leaving half-way through the Allman Brothers set which was tedious and boring. John Peel Compared the day and was as dry and funny as ever.

    Fred Neil would no doubt buy you quite a few beers for that one Tim.
    Nice job.
    The both of you are probably strumming away on some cloud right now. You sang that like you really knew what a great tune it is.
    Thanx for the memories!!
