Blue Afternoon - Tim Buckley (Vinyl)

Originally released in 1969 Blue Afternoon is Buckley's fourth album and his first for Frank Zappa's Straight label. Continuing with the jazz inflected folk-rock he first unveiled on his previous release, Happy Sad, Buckley's songs are complimented here by classy arrangements featuring vibes player David Friedman and Lee Underwood's beautifully understated guitar work. A classic from perhaps the most unique American singer/songwriter of the 60s and 70s.
