But I have heard a good portion of his output.

Jeff never had a relationship with his father. I believe they only met once.

 I guess Jeff rocks out more and he is more in line with my generation. "Grace is one of those records that came out, with much record company fanfare, buzz and critics and record buyers weren't impressed, at first. This was douring the hey day of grunge rock. People were looking for Jeff to be a second Nirvana. Over time and after Jeff's death. record sales have steadily grown.

Here's a list of artist directly influenced by Jeff's work: - Radiohead, Travis, Pearl Jam, Coldplay, Badly Drawn Boy, Ed Hardcourt, Damien Rice and Kathryn Williams to name a few.

I remember Rolling Stone giving it a two, three star review. Now they give it five. Go figure!
