53 years ago, Colman Andrews reviewed Nick Drake's "Pink Moon" for Creem (October 1972). "He knows more about us than we know about him."

I'm not alone in having 'Cello Song as my introduction to Nick Drake.

And while it's the violin that is this song's hook, along with Drake's signature non-standard guitar tunings, it is the melancholy words that stand out above all else for me 👇

Sad to read that legendary bassist Danny Thompson has died.

His playing was a vital part of #NickDrake 's work and Pentangle.

Here's a pic I took of him and Pentangle in 2011, shortly before Bert Jansch (also pictured) sadly died.

Apologies for the multiple posts today, but I want to share Charles with y'all. He's so passionate about music and really good at explaining how it's built. This video came across my feed today and it's quite beautiful. Hope you enjoy. #Music #Theory #NickDrake youtu.be/fBdbRoSrWr4?...

My neighbours gave me their old turntable and I just got the loveliest surprise in the post from my dear friend Liz 🙏💛 I had a good collection in the 80s/90s, but it got lost somewhere when I left Denmark, so I'll be browsing charity shops to build it up again! 😄

Random Album of the Day: Five Leaves Left by Nick Drake, 1969.

This emotional, melancholy album was English Folk artist Nick Drake's first of only three. His vocals and guitar are supplemented with beautiful string parts which add depth to the otherwise traditional folk music.

Another of my son's songs. This was something he made for @npr.org 's Tiny Desk contest--seriously un-flashy (like him)! Someone recently compared him to #NickDrake, but I don't hear it. I think more Jeff Buckley, or just himself. :)
He's got 2 shows in NYC/NJ in late September, if you'll be around.

#NickDrake was never really there. That's why he is everywhere.

After years of being told I should give Nick Drake a listen. My pal at work gave me a copy of Five Leaves Left and it's lovely. #NickDrake
