Look at the Fool

Look at the Fool is the ninth and final studio album by American singer-songwriter Tim Buckley, released on September 13, 1974, by DiscReet Records.

Look at the Fool received mixed reviews. AllMusic's Richie Unterberger gave the album one-and-a-half stars out of five, calling it "a sad, burned-out affair" and noting that Buckley was starting to lose his voice, which Unterberger said was "distressingly thin." OOR Magazine was more positive, calling it "the best Buckley album in many years."
