Jeff Buckley is huge here in Australia, so much so that the record company are always putting out unreleased stuff that isn't even put out in the states. At my college we get a lot of American exchange students, and they all say things like "You mean he's American? I never even heard of him until I got to Australia" kind of stuff. It's a bit like Ben Folds, who now lives in Australia partly because he's always had such good audiences here. It's weird how that works, though I guess with a population as big as the US, there are so many live acts competing all the time. Over here we're lucky to have one big name band in the country at any one time.
