256. Ainslie Wills on Jeff Buckley 'Grace' (1994)

We finally break the seal on Jeff Buckley's iconic 'Grace' as acclaimed Melbourne melodist Ainslie Wills joins me for a nuanced unpacking of whether Buckley was ahead of his time, the foregrounding of tone in music, falling in love with this album before Buckley died, that cover of 'Hallelujah' and its use in The West Wing and Ainslie's experience covering songs like 'Lover You Should've Come Over'.
