This guy reminds me so much of Tim Buckley. Which should give you some idea of how far ahead of his time Tim Buckley was:

Some great stuff, right? And then there’s this:
Some opinions:
Agree with you completely about Ryley Walker (and the greatness of Tim Buckley.) New album’s a little more “out there” but still excellent.
The Rayland Baxter song is hilarious and sounds good too.
The tricot song is odd but in a good way, partly because I already liked “Last Tango in Paris” as a movie theme.
This is a great Ry Cooder performance and I’m a big fan. But the new album is a little too much like a sermon from the pulpit.
I prefer the other song Childish Gambino did on SNL, “Saturday.” But then I’m a sucker for smooth neo-soul. Glad to see Childish Gambino doing well, but I still miss Troy.
The Wolfman is very good. I’d say the other two are just OK.
Good selection.
