Hello And Goodbye  by Tim Buckley

The twenty-year-old American Tim Buckley records his second studio album titled Hello And Goodbye for Electra Records in June 1967. It is an album where folk music meets psychedelia, and baroque pop merges with soft rock.

Many of the songs on the album are co-signed by the poet and writer Larry Beckett, who collaborated several times with Tim Buckley. Significant help in recording the album was offered by Lee Underwood with his guitar. The big hit of the album was the song Once I Was. The cover was the work of Electra Records' long-time collaborator, artistic designer William Stanley Harvey.

Hello And Goodbye is an album that was appreciated more over time rather than at the time of its release. Through the ten compositions of the album, Tim Buckley expresses the concerns of American youth during a period of upheaval and unrest prevailing in United States society.
