The power and influence of Grace increases with each passing year. Here, Daphne Brooks traces Jeff Buckley's fascinating musical development through the earliest stages of his career, up to the release of the album.

He was busy hearing how Dylan channeled Billie Holiday in Blonde On Blonde and how Robert Plant was doing his best to sound like Janis Joplin on early Led Zeppelin recordings. He was thinking about doo-wop and opera and Elton John and working at developing a way to harness the power of the voice...In the process, he was re-defining punk and grunge "attitude" itself by rejecting the ambivalent sexual undercurrents of those movements, as well as Led Zeppelin's canonical "cock rock" kingdom that he'd grown up adoring.

Insanely overwritten hagiography. I learned a couple of facts, but mostly I just learned that the author really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really likes Jeff Buckley (replace 9 of the previous "really"s with randomly chosen adverbs to get a general idea of the style). It's also a very badly edited book, even in terms of just basic copyediting. ( )
