[edit] Buckley's Vocal range (yeah i know...sorry for bringing it up again!)
I'm going to just add to the controversy but i want to tell a musician's point of view. The lowest note i have Buckley hitting on record is a G2 on "Phantasmagoria in Two" from the Tim Buckley tribute and why are people saying Buckley hits an Eb6 on "Gunshot Glitter"? Isn't it an Eb5? Maybe people are confused over guitar being notated an octave higher on sheet music, or that he jumps in to falsetto? Not sure about your musical knowledge but an Eb5 is either 11 fret on the high e4 string or two Eb's above the middle C3. Which gives him just short of a 3 three octave range. Not bad, comparable to Roy Orbison and Tim Buckley and better than Pavarotti. Just there happens to be a bit of an exaggeration contest over this, plus various hacks thinking G2-A6 is 4 octaves and confusion between standard american and european notation (european is counted one number lower). Sorry for the essay. Tell me what you think. Sillyfolkboy (talk) 20:43, 2 May 2008 (UTC)
