I'm surprised to find that I like this a little more than his other records. It's a little less sad than the other two which is usually more my thing, but this just has something I can't put my finger on.
'Northern Sky' is a masterpiece and will be played at my funeral to wing me to my final resting place....
Listen to "Northern Sky" loud between a set of good speakers. My favorite autumn record.
The man is magnificent!
Lovely album... It lacks the melancholic atmosphere of Pink Moon and Five Leaves Left but still has some damn good lyrics and some delicious arangements...
I am joining the "this is the best Nick Drake album" camp. Seems evenly split. This is the first one I got and I love it. Best track is the chime of the city clock. Gorgeous melodies and a laid back Sunday morning feel.
'Fly' is becoming one of my favourite tracks, beautiful
Elegant in its simplicity. The lyrics of Hazey Jane I are some of the best I've ever read. Fantastic record.
As simple as a kettle, steady as a rock.
Such beautiful orchestration and lyrics and soulful singing.....I agree with the other comments it is indeed dreamlike and a fantastic album.My favourites are At the Chime and Northern Sky.
