You and I

Recently discovered in the Sony Music archives during the research for the 20th anniversary edition of Buckley's GRACE album, the performances of YOU AND I are a revelation, an intimate portrait of the artist performing a variety of cover songs and original music expressing a range of emotion channelled through his singular sensibility.

The songs of YOU AND I reveal, in part, the eclectic scope of Jeff Buckley's extraordinary musical tastes and talent. The covers on the album include Jeff's highly personal interpretations of songs written by Bob Dylan ('Just Like A Woman'); Sylvester Stewart ('Everyday People' recorded by Sly & The Family Stone); Joe Green ('Don't Let The Sun Catch You Cryin', recorded by Louis Jordan, Ray Charles and others); Bob Telson ('Calling You', recorded by Jevetta Steele for the 1987 film Bagdad Cafe); Morrissey and Johnny Marr ('The Boy With The Thorn In His Side' and 'I Know It's Over', recorded by The Smiths); Booker T Washington "Bukka" White ('Poor Boy Long Way From Home', from the 1939 "field" recording made by John Lomax) and John Paul Jones/Jimmy Page/Robert Plant ('Night Flight', recorded by Led Zeppelin).
