Last Goodbye

Last Goodbye is a Jeff Buckley composition from Grace, first released in 1994. The album was recorded with producer Andy Wallace and a band built around Buckley, bassist Mick Grondahl and drummer Matt Johnson.

The performance treats a farewell as something unresolved: quieter lines give way to a more forceful refrain, with the rhythm section and guitars expanding around the voice. The changes in intensity give the song its sense of urgency.

This is the original album recording, which predates its wider single campaign. Explore more Jeff Buckley recordings to hear the range between his solo interpretations and full-band material.
