New York, NY (Top40 Charts) From folk, to rock, to psychedelia, to jazz, to soul, singer-songwriter Tim Buckley continued to evolve and explore - pushing boundaries at every turn. Through the course of his career, ten singles were issued from his nine albums, and they are collected for the very first time on Wings: The Complete Singles 1966�1974. Street date is November 18, 2016.
Each producer - Paul A. Rothchild, Jac Holzman, Jerry Yester, and Jerry Goldstein - brought the right feel to Buckley�s progressing musical persona. With material running chronologically from his self-titled debut from 1966 through 1974�s Look at the Fool, the Wings compilation traces his development as an artist and writer. Of special note is the unissued 1967 single �Once Upon a Time� b/w �Lady, Give Me Your Key� with the latter making its first appearance anywhere!
The booklet features photos and ephemera, as well as an extensive, new interview with Buckley�s longtime friend and collaborator, lyricist Larry Beckett, conducted specifically for this collection. Mastered by Grammy-winner Michael Graves, the audio sparkles as never before.
According to Buckley�s widow, Judy, quoted in the liner notes, �(Tim) always felt lucky that he could make a living doing something he loved to do.�
An excellent primer for the curious (and for fans of Tim�s son, Jeff Buckley) and essential for those in the know, Wings: The Complete Singles 1966�1974 lets the legacy of the great Tim Buckley fly.
