NICK DRAKE - A TREASURY (IMP LP)

A singular talent who passed almost unnoticed during his brief lifetime, Nick Drake produced three studio albums of sombre beauty: Five Leaves Left (1969), Bryter Layter (1970), and Pink Moon (1972). It’s impossible to keep count of the contemporary artists who cite Drake as an inspiration, but a cursory round-up includes R.E.M., Paul Weller, Travis, Portishead, The Coral, Coldplay, David Gray, Super Furry Animals and Beth Orton. Along with household names of his creative lifetime, The Stones, The Beatles, Bob Marley, Jimi Hendrix, his albums have become an unofficial set text for anyone passionate about music. Finally on super quiet import vinyl this is the perfect album for curious music lovers to pick up.
