Oh my fucking God does Nick Drake rule!!
I would do the inevitable and buy the four CD box set. Personally Pink
Moon and Bryter Later(sp?) are my favorites . . . but 5 Leaves Left has
Cello Song (the prettiest song ever) and at least a couple of other
essentials. And I am afraid I cannot listen to Kelly's cover of Nick
knowing his version . . . just doesn't cut it, sorry.
Just buy the box. And make sure you listen through a couple of times.
The initial impressions are typically tame . . . but the payoff is one of
the largest imaginable.
My opinions of course . . .
