DOWNLOAD: Tim Buckley - What Do You Do (He Never Saw You)

Before Tim Buckley died in 1975 at the age of 28, he managed to carve a small albeit uniquely shaped hole in the nexus and diaspora of folk music. Twenty years later, his son Jeff would do the same, to a greater extent even, and meet an equally tragic end. Tompkins Square recently issued a recording of the elder's 1967 performance at the Folklore Center in New York, where the then twenty-year-old played for an audience of about thirty-five people. The disc contains six never before heard or released songs, one of which is "What Do You Do (Never Saw You)." To call it a gem would be an understatement–this is essential time capsule exploration.
