I discovered Nick Drake in 2002, the summer I moved to Eagan, MN. I used to talk music with two members of my staff, and they both were huge Nick Drake fans. This album is stripped down to just his vocals, guitar and a brief piano overdub on the title track, and would end up being his final record before his life ended at age 26. This is the reason I don't regret the move to Minnesota, I may have never heard this man's contribution to music had I not made the move.
The record is 28 minutes long. Take the time to listen to the entire thing, and I dare you to tell me you don't love it ...
