Jubilee, the fourth and final studio album from Los Angeles band Grant Lee Buffalo, came out on Slash and Reprise in 1998, and it's a polished, open-hearted record. Grant-Lee Phillips has said the celebratory feel of the album gave him a fresh burst of optimism, and you can hear it: the band's folk-tinged rock sounds bright and buoyant, with Phillips' big, quavering voice riding high over Joey Peters' drums.
"Truly, Truly" became a real radio hit, spending 13 weeks on the Modern Rock chart and climbing to number 11 there. But Phillips believes the label's expectations were sky-high and that a changing industry, obsessed with quick-fire listener testing, never gave the record a fair chance. Soon afterward the band and the label went their separate ways, and so did Phillips and Peters. Grant Lee Buffalo was finished by early 1999.
