Rarity of The Week : Jeff Buckley & Elizabeth Fraser - All Flowers In Time Bend Towards The Sun

 


Unreleased (unfinished) acoustic track by Jeff Buckley and Elizabeth Fraser. Recorded sometime around 1995-1996.

Jeff Buckley drowned in the river Mississippi the evening of the 29th May 1997 in a spot called Wolf River Harbour 

Elizabeth
From 1994 to 1995, Buckley had an intense relationship with Elizabeth Fraser of Cocteau Twins. They wrote and recorded a duet together, "All Flowers in Time Bend Towards the Sun", which has never been released commercially.


*NB Buckley's autopsy showed no signs of drugs or alcohol in his system, and the death was ruled an accidental drowning after being pulled under the water by the force of the wake of the tugboat. The official Jeff Buckley website published a statement saying his death was neither mysterious nor a suicide.
