HAPPY SAD used to be my favorite Buckley but after this (long overdue) latest discog run. this takes the throne. Younger-me was probably put off by the avant-weirdness of this (especially in contrast to the somewhat inviting and normal-looking cover art) but it is goddamn perfect.

This is arguably far more “avant-“ than any albums preceding it, except for intermittent moments on LORCA maybe, but this is still in a whole other realm of comparative experimentation. They’re all good/great, though, even the more conventionally folky stuff.

My personal ranking of his first six albums would be
Starsailor >
Lorca = Happy Sad >
Goodbye and Hello >
Blue Afternoon >
debut

Honestly can’t decide between LORCA and HAPPY SAD, they’re both incredible in completely different ways.
