    I was lucky to see him more than 20 times. First time was at a memorial for his dad Tim, a few blocks from my home in Brooklyn. I saw Tim a few times: he was a high school crush! After seeing Jeff play his dad’s songs, the audience was dumbfounded. Jeff played often in small clubs and coffeehouses (NYC) and I would drag friends to see him. He was always so sweet and so funny! Like everyone else, I was crushed when he died, just on the verge of making it Huge! It kills me that his notoriety is mostly posthumous. RIP little Scotty.

    Their’s footage (I think it was on bbc 4) going through the actual mixing process for the track. It was his early 80’s toploader Tele going through a Fender Vibrolux with its tank reverb. 3 or 4 mics at different distances all mixed together at various individual volumes. This video is pretty much replicating this process using high end reverb pedals.

    @@stijnhagen2446 I would agree, but that's also fundamentally different from something that has connotations of being immaculate, clean or not mixed with unwanted, harmful or less desirable substances or materials. Personally I just don't think I makes much sense to set up descriptions of art or human beings on a purity-impurity spectrum if, as you suggest a sense of the "real" is what we are trying to get at. Even as an abstraction it carries a certain luggage of idealistic dichotomy that is perhaps more descriptive of someones personal experience or associations than the object of description itself. As you can probably tell, corona has left me with a lot of time on my hands to explore these very important matters =.O

    Additions/thoughts: Buckley's definitely sounds more mellow played as well. But when doing that my sound got weaker and less sustained and the attack of the lower strings totally disappeared. My guess he quite heavily played the bottom strings, and eased up a bit on that high bit. Rolling down the tone knob definitely worked as well, but I ended up adding low pass filter/EQ to the Kemper preset and the recorded version :) Also, I'm not entirely sure he played a tele, or maybe had some different pickup thing going on.

    From what I can hear, you play the track very cleanly with very pronounced finger picking.

You just are such an accomplished finger picker that your version is almost too clean.
