Truly a seminal masterpiece that pushes everything else but the music and the man and the connection between artist and audience out of the way while it is on. Truly a remarkably warm, and completely unique album that just exists in its own space and time. It's marvelous. And despite the fact that its almost solely Guitar and Voice, there is a definite and very unique quality to this record.
It's goddamn brilliant.

I'm literally jumping with joy. Me and the other cool kids with this in their top ten will sure be happy.

One of the best folk albums of all time. So much pain and emotion is channeled into every single second. It is probably one of the most honest albums about life... I love this album with my entire soul and it is certainly in my top 10 of all time.

I could wax lyrical about this album but it's in my top ten and so you get the gist, and I couldn't add anything new or interesting to the vast amount that has already been said about this masterpiece even if I wanted to. Just thought I'd make everyone a little jealous by stating that I went to see a Nick Drake tribute gig about four years ago. Performers included Robyn Hitchcock, Graham Coxon, Beth Orton, Vashti Bunyan, Martha Wainwright, Rachel Unthank, Kate St. John, and a few other people. But yeah, I saw Vashti Bunyan play 'Which Will'. Ha.

Yeah, not much left to be said about this album. No other album has been able to pack so much beauty and mysticism into such a short time span.
