Today Jordan and Alex set the sights on one of the most unique albums of the ‘90s, which turns 30 years old this summer. The record is a tantalizing glimpse at one of the great unfulfilled musical promises of the decade. Jeff Buckley was a one-of-a-kind talent who was at the start of what seemed like a long, and fascinating career when he drowned in Memphis at age 30. You’ll learn about the deeply fraught family saga at the heart of his music, the reason why label execs hated the cover, and the cruel comparison the Michael Bolton that nearly killed the album before it was ever completed. Alex goes deep on Buckley’s technical virtuosity and shares a fact about belly button rings that will haunt you forever, while Jordan delivers a comprehensive history of the MANY “Hallelujah” covers and tries to figure out the “Sex Funk” musical genre. It's an episode littered with minor falls and major lifts, at times poignant and perverse — that's the TMI promise, baby!
