When I started this challenge I decided not to read anything about what albums are included or the criteria for inclusion. With that said, I have no qualms about this remarkable Jeff Buckley album being included in this list as I believe no life is complete without experiencing it at least once, but hopefully more often.

Jeff Buckley has a uniquely beautiful voice and he puts it to good use in this set of songs. While “Hallelujah” seems to get all the attention, and it’s outstanding, songs like “Lover, You Should’ve Come Over” display amazing talent and range.

I just adore this album and am glad to see it included, it’s certainly well deserved. We can only imagine what else Jeff would have contributed to our world had we not lost him so tragically.
