NIck Drake Appreciation Thread
 

This guy is the true definition of an original.No one can pull off his folk virtuoso talent.

The way he uses those bizarre alternate tuning which show he must have spent a lot of time on each song specifically.People are still trying to figure them out today.Plus his incredible playing ability while still saying these beautiful words syncing up perfectly.

My favorite is and will always be pink moon. Its just perfect to relax to and the more u listen the more u notice all these little extra things drake does on the guitar that u might not have noticed before. "parasite", "pink moon","things behind the sun", "ride", "road" and "from the morning" all just radiate this solemn beauty to them.Actually every song on that record is perfect, its one where you can keep repeating the songs.


So talk about your love of drake, whats your favorite album or songs ?

Anything from Pink Moon. Pink Moon and Things Behind The Sun, especially... Dark... River Man too...

I've heard Pink Moon once and never again.
I guess I shouldn't post this in an appreciation thread....fuck it.

Pink Moon is amazing. His first album would be my second favorite, but the intimacy of Pink Moon is so personal. From the Morning is his greatest song.

What a voice.....that's what gets me.

here is a lovely 3 lp set very rare, so on mp3 here, i have never seen it anywhere apart from this site
