Book Reviews of Wished for Song: A Portrait of Jeff Buckley
Book Review: The Phenominal Jeff Buckley Caught in Pictures
Summary: 5 Stars
I bought this book when it first came out and I still pull it off the shelf and marvel at not only the care that was expressed when being put together but also the beauty of each photograph. This book wasn't released to exploit the fans of this tragic artist in order to make a quick buck but was a well thought out pictorial of his experiences with Merri Cyr. Although I didn't order this book through Amazon, I still felt the need to comment on it because it is a stirring pictorial of a life cut much too short.Book Review: light on a very interesting subject...
Summary: 5 Stars
This book is a must have if you are a fan of Jeff Buckley. The person who said that nobody could hear an eight octave range doesnt know music (a piano has eight octaves). Jeff had said that he had a six octave range. Neverless with Jeff it was never about virtuosity. The music he created was beautiful and this book is a great tribute by one of his friends. The pictures are great insight into what an amazing person Buckley was. RIPBook Review: thanks to merri
Summary: 5 Stars
Thanks to Merri and thousands of emailers, the book that was on her site, finaly ended on hardcopy after almost a year!Splendid photos, very touching for Jeff fans.
very beautiful harcopy, well manufactured, it helped me to understand many of the moments of Jeff's life as described in the"dream brother" book.
A marvellous tribute among others.

Book Review: Worth it for the pictures
Summary: 5 Stars
The short "skits" that try to explore Buckley as a person can be extremely weak and full of unnecessary commentary from the "author" from time to time. The bits that do resonant are well worth it and extremely tasteful. The pictures are marvelous and that alone makes the book worth buying. Really helped me discover the man behind the touching music.Book Review: A window
Summary: 5 Stars
True fans of Jeff respect his music and appreciate the honest, open, and intriguing person he was. This book was created by a close friend of his and is not out to profit off of possible exploitation. It is rather a unique collection that celebrates the man and his life force: music. Buy this or borrow it, just please cherish it. I do.
