Im getting into Nick Drake..vocal with acoustic guitar. beautifull strangely haunting songs slightly strange melodies (lots of diminished chords thrown in) and lovelly string arrangements ..in the style of Cat Stevens and James Taylor but with his own unique style. I say to anyone check this guy out. Really great..

A lady friend bought me a copy of Pink Moon and while I do enjoy it from time to time I find I have to be in a really introspective frame of mind to listen to his material ??!!??. Maybe I need therapy...........
