First off let me say how much I loved listening to this. Amazing. The sincerity and the emotion of it are all that really matter of course but I do have a question about a detail. I think the commitments film was released in August of 1991. The st Anne’s church tribute to Tim was in April of 1991. Fully can see that glen introduced Jeff to sine… just unsure about the Hal Wilmer part. But incredible moments to imagine none the less. I wish I had been there.

What an incredible story. I can only imagine all of the pride and sadness he must feel talking about his friend and former guitar tech.

Buckley and Glen!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! OMG what a story!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! GOD I LOVE LIFE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Synergy, synchronicity!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!: the coincidental occurrence of events and especially psychic events (as similar thoughts in widely separated persons or a mental image of an unexpected event before it happens) that seem related but are not explained by conventional mechanisms of causality -used especially in the psychology of C. G. Jung.

My dad has played Glen Hansard for as long as I can remember, but I didn't fall in love with his music until a few weeks ago. As for Buckley, I pushed him aside until I heard Lover You Should've Come Over for the first time. Six months later I've got Grace on Vinyl and is now my 2nd favorite album of all time. It's strange as lately music has left me feeling bitter. All but the two artists. Now knowing that the two not only knew each other, but were true friends absolutely blows my mind. As James Allen said, "You gravitate towards that which you love most". It was the attitude they both had towards music, that I've longed for, for years.

Quarantine and Matt Bellamy got me into Jeff's music recently and i cant get enough of him so i read every article about him whenever i can and it's all about him and Sin-é but it never says how he got there and how he met Hal Wilner exactly. At least what i've read. Amazing how those two defining things happened to him in one single night...it makes even more obvious New York was the place where he belonged. Too bad Glen missed on the chance to talk to him back that last time.

It makes sense that they would be good friends. Glen said his “holy trinity of artists” is Bob Dylan, Van Morrison, and Leonard Cohen. And Jeff always said his favorite artists were: Zeppelin, Dylan, Van, Cohen, Joni and Lou Reed.

Saw JB at waterloo records in 94' never heard of him but I knew the guy who owned waterloo and went to visit him. So, it was by chance, remarkable just remarkable like when I saw SRV 10 years before and had never heard of him.

@@D4n1t0o Jeff up close or SRV? I assume your asking about JB. Remarkable, he was everything that all of us in Austin and Dallas, San Marcos whatever were trying to be. JB's talent was like 1 in a million. When he sang Grace and Lover and Last Goodbye he sang for about an hour. I had never heard anything like him before, ya know, and didn't know what to think, except WOW. Like when I saw SRV or first heard Michael Jackson's Thriller or Jaco Pastorious it blows your mind. Such talent and charisma. You just never forget that kind of greatness, that moment in you life, ever!

I heard the story was Wilner and one of Tim Buckley's old band mates wanted to put this show at St. Anne's church with local musician's singing TB's song. Didn't Rebecca Moore who was working for Wilner found out he had a son and that's she's the one that called Jeff in LA and asked him if he would do it?
