She has documented Buckley’s career from his days at the East Village coffee shop Sin-é to his iconic Grace cover shoot to his rigorous tour around the world as he promoted his unprecedented debut. Photographer Merri Cyr was there along the way. And while a number of posthumous releases of unpolished, deep cuts have helped satiate listeners over the years, it is his official studio album Grace that reverberates with timelessness: at its release in 1994, the album sounded like nothing that had come before-and no album has repeated its essence since. In the wake of his passing, Buckley has continued to garner new fans and influence countless artists. But Buckley’s untimely death in 1997 left his fans to wonder about all the sonic magic that could have been and to hold dear the few but brilliant songs he left behind. Grace made clear a remarkably talented force had come upon the world, and it promised a wellspring of astonishing music for years to come. His talent awed industry giants and moved the hearts of fans spanning generations. His rendition of Leonard Cohen’s “Hallelujah” is arguably the most memorable version ever recorded. Buckley’s refined melodies and wide vocal range made him stand apart from his contemporaries. Grace emerged at a time when grunge gripped the charts. Jeff Buckley made only one album, but the one he made has proved to be seminal.
