    Jeff Buckley and Gary Lucas performing at the Knitting Factory, in New York City, on Saturday, April 18, 1992. This show was filmed during Easter weekend and Passover, hence the comments about Jesus, Lazarus, and Passover, during the introduction and the closing remarks.
    From the soundboard recording of this concert, Mojo Pin was incorporated into Jeff and Gary's album, Songs To No One 1991-1992.

    Note: Unfortunately, the videographer, for reasons unknown, decided that it was a good idea to incorporate an array of cheesy, distorted, special effects that were common features on camcorders of that era. Sadly, this poor decision ruined virtually the entire performance, from a visual perspective. Thankfully, there are some clear shots, in the intro, and briefly in other areas, but the rest looks as though we are watching the performance through the eyes of the alien in Predator (1987).
    I don't think there is adequate language to describe what is going on in this video, and a new entry might be needed for dictionaries, the world over. The best way that I can describe it is: a visual Rampage Supernova in disguise. I've seen clearer footage of Bigfoot. Jeff's face, during Mojo Pin, looks like he was sporting some organic peanut butter exfoliating mask.
    It's terribly sad that nothing can be done to undo this poorly conceived idea and result; it ruins what should have otherwise been some amazing and intimate footage. This is very disappointing, to put it lightly, and I wish I had a solution, but we'll have to accept this for what it is, I suppose. It might eventually be appreciated in some campy way.
    I guess it is fitting that Jeff wore a colourful, vibrant shirt with spirals on it, as it consummates the hypnotizing effects used by the camera man. Speaking of which, I have never seen Jeff wear that shirt in any other piece of footage, nor any photos. Perhaps it dissolved as a result of the whirlwind that the filmer caused to form, in the room.

    Jeff Buckleyaka (Scotty Moorehead )seemed to have a great deal of intuition and inspiration in his artistry.

    Love to see Jeff's early days, there's much joy and purity of inspiration in him, like it's palpable that he felt he was filled with grace during that time.
    Listening to him and watching him perform fills me with a high spirit, every time. Even in this case, despite the peanut butter exfoliating mask and alien vision mode.
    Gary and him had something special while it lasted. Essentially they were a great duo, i feel like you could expect anything on that stage and know you won't be disappointed no matter what they'd do with that 'magical guitarness' and that daring soulful voice. Thank you for this video, MojoPin. ♡

    Thank you so much for this video, and again, for everything you've been doing these past years to preserve Jeff's legacy. I can forgive the crude effects as there is a sweet kind of nostalgia to them, very indicative of late 80s TV music performances - kitsch, sure - but perhaps in another universe this would be his fictional debut on Top of the Pops. I don't know how you keep finding this stuff!

I misinterpreted what you said, and thought you wanted *me* to enhance the audio. Are you sure that you aren't confusing this show with another, or have you seen this concert before, and if so, where? This transfer is straight from the master tape. I'm not sure how you could have seen this gig, previously, unless you are/were somehow acquainted with Gary, Jeff, the filmer, or someone else who was in attendance.

Heard of JB in the 90s so i thought being older Id appreciate the music- his emotional song vibe,vocalizations are frenzied at times I feel like hes vocally flexing much more than hed need to.Every song his like Adeles contently ONLY broken hearts and deep pain.EVERY SONG. But who am I? Just a personal opinion and likely not a popular one at that. Dislike buttons ready for a beating,lol
