Sketches for My Sweetheart the Drunk is the collection of studio tracks and four-track demos recorded by Jeff Buckley in the summer of 1996 and early 1997.
Buckley had been working on an album to be called My Sweetheart, the Drunk, but the album had yet to be finished at the time of his death. It was released posthumously in May 1998. Given the raw and somewhat unfinished nature of the songs, the collection that was released was called Sketches for My Sweetheart the Drunk.
The album's original sessions were produced by television frontman Tom Verlaine. Despite its unfinished state, the album received many positive reviews.
