Tim Buckley Live @ Newport Folk Festival (28th July 1968)









Rare  set... of  the great  Tim Buckley

Look backward to the past and events seem to gain speed and inevitability. Observe Tim Buckley and the passing milestones become blurs. His short lifetime adds urgency and meaning to our impressions of his every evolution

Still just 21 years old, Buckley had immersed himself in progressive jazz, and found a voice unlike any other at Newport that year. Loose, improvisational arrangements let his voice challenge the material, including a harrowing version of the 19th-century "Wayfaring Stranger." Yes, "Dolphins" is here, and Buckley evens obliges the audience with an encore of "Morning Glory."
