Tim Buckley: Greetings From LA - October 1972

By Mick MacVe

"I took a year off, 'cause I'd been going strong since 1966 and I really needed a rest." Tim Buckley talking to ZigZag magazine.

He claimed that neither Jim Morrison nor Mick Jagger could really sing about sex; he could do it much better. Of course he was right. "It's full out blues-type barrelhouse rock" and it gave Tim another musical setting to wrench emotions from the listener.
