Sefronia is the eighth album by singer-songwriter Tim Buckley, released in September 1973.[5][6]

Production

[edit]

The album was produced by Denny Randell.[7] It was recorded at Paramount Recording Studios in Los Angeles, California. Other tracks were recorded at Record Plant, in New York, and at Devonshire Sound Studios in North Hollywood.

Critical reception

[edit]

AllMusic wrote that Buckley's "voice isn't as stunning as usual on his next-to-last album, but the bigger problem is the material, which is usually forced and pedestrian."[1] Trouser Press wrote: "Denny Randell’s anachronistic-on-impact LA white-soul production, which pours syrupy strings over several numbers, is hardest to digest on poorly chosen middle-of-the-road love songs that didn’t suit Buckley at all."[7] NME declared that the album is "widely agreed to be Buckley’s most over-produced and underwhelming effort."[8]
