Tim Buckley - Starsailor (1970)


Starsailor is a album, released on Frank Zappa's Straight Records label. It marks the moment Buckley's folk rock origins became invisible as he fully incorporated jazz rock and avant-garde styles in to his music. Although it is often regarded as not being accessible to many people,[citation needed] it also contains his best known song "Song to the Siren". This more accessible song was written much earlier than Starsailor's newer material, originally in a more traditional folk arrangement, as shown on the later released compilation album Morning Glory: The Tim Buckley Anthology. Bunk Gardner, a former member of the Mothers of Invention, joined Buckley's normal band to record the album. Also, Buckley began working again with lyricist Larry Beckett, after a three-album absence.

Hi,

Cheers from the former capitol of the Confederacy, Richmond, Va.

This is such a cool site. You do a great job.

Thanks for the effort and for the fun I've had hanging out here.

Question: I tried to access Mr Buckley and a password is called for.

Would you kindly let me know what the aforementioned password is?

Thanks again
