Liner Notes "We recorded the last performances for
this album - by Gavin Friday and Jeff Buckley - on the evening of February 13,
1997. Jeff was moving to Memphis the next day. Allen Ginsberg, a friend of both
Gavin and Jeff, came by to visit and ended up coaching Jeff. The result is a
beautiful reading, full of innocence and discovery. Within a few months both
Allen and Jeff would be gone, events that I have not really accepted yet. They
were both rare creatures of this earth and the memory of the two of them working
together that night will remain with me forever. I miss them terribly. This
album is dedicated to Jeff and Allen." Hal Willner Venice,
California August 1997
Quotes "[...] Of the many striking
voices rounded up to sing and read the works of Edgar Allan Poe [...] none tears
at the heart with the marvelous terror of the late Jeff Buckley
[...]" Rolling Stone 12/25/97, p.166

Track 5
"Faith Salons" (Brenda Kahn/Jeff Buckley) 5:30
Jeff Buckley plays guitar and sings background vocals on Faith
Salons. Although Buckley is credited with co-writing Faith Salons
on KING OF
CAIRO, DESTINATION ANYWHERE says that words and music are written by Brenda
Kahn. However, publishing for Faith Salons are copywritten 1994 through
Being Cook, Administered and Co-published by Warner Tamerlane Publishing Corp.
and Sony Songs, Inc. El Viejito Music BMI (which is Buckley's
publishing).
Faith Salons was recorded at Soundtrax, New York,
NY. DESTINATION ANYWHERE is, for all practical purposes, the same CD that
Chaos Records (Sony) originally intended to release in early 1995 (but didn't).
Faith Salons doesn't seem to be the same exact version as appears on KING OF
CAIRO.
