Live at Sin-é is Jeff Buckley's first commercial release, put out by Columbia in 1993. Strictly speaking it is a live EP, with four songs recorded at the Sin-é cafe in Manhattan's East Village, where Buckley performed as a solo singer-songwriter.

It arrived before his only studio album, Grace, which followed in 1994, so it offers an early look at him in a small room with little around him. Fans who want more can turn to the expanded edition from 2003, which runs to over two hours of music and gives a fuller picture of those cafe sets.
