The new album of unreleased Jeff Buckley songs, including covers and demo versions of his most famous tracks, is now streaming online.

You And I comprises of ten tracks recorded early in the career of Buckley - who died in 1997 at the age of 30 after an ill-fated late-night swim. It's remarkable in many ways - not least of which is that it's a posthumous release that doesn't feel like a cynical money grab.

Prior to the album's release, a few tracks from the album were revealed - including a cover of The Smiths' 'I Know It's Over', and Bob Dylan's 'Just Like A Woman', both of which were stunning.

Now the full album is streaming on NPR, and you can listen to it below. We strongly urge you to do so.

 

You And I will be officially released on 16 March. See the full tracklisting below.

02 Everyday People (Sly & The Family Stone cover)
03 Don't Let The Sun Catch You Cryin' (First recorded by Louis Jordan)
