Jeffrey Scott “Jeff” Buckley, raised as Scotty Moorhead, was an American singer-songwriter and guitarist. He was the son of Tim Buckley, also a musician. After a decade as a guitarist-for-hire in Los Angeles, Buckley amassed a following in the early 1990s by playing cover songs at venues in Manhattan’s East Village, such as Sin-é, gradually focusing more on his own material.

After rebuffing much interest from record labels and his father’s manager Herb Cohen, he signed with Columbia, recruited a band, and recorded what would be his only studio album, Grace. Over the following two years, the band toured widely to promote the album, including concerts in the U.S., Europe, Japan and Australia. Since his death, there have been many posthumous releases of his material, including a collection of four-track demos and studio recordings for his unfinished second album My Sweetheart the Drunk and expansions of debut album Grace and his Live at Sin-é EP. Watch: Steve Kilbey On Stage With Afghan Whigs In News. At The Afghan Whigs’ debut Australian show in Melbourne last Wednesday (July 25), the US noir-rock legends covered ‘One Day’ by The Church. The following night in Sydney, they went one step further, bringing Steve Kilbey up on stage for an energetic rendition of the song complete with backing vocals from Whigs frontman Greg Dulli and Kilbey’s trademark dance moves.

The musicians’ esteem for each other was obvious, with Kilbey turning to Dulli and saying, “I love this guy”, before he left the stage. As Dulli told M+N in his recent Aus Playlist, ‘One Day’ was one of the first songs The Afghan Whigs’ ever played when they formed in Cincinnati, Ohio, in 1986. “I have loved them since I first heard them … and I was thrilled to meet Steve Kilbey a few years ago,” he said.

Here’s some footage shot exclusively for M+N by photographer Jakob De Zwart. Movie of the Week - Blank Generation (with Richard Hell and the Voidoids, 1980) Movie of the Week - Who Is Poly Styrene?
