Nick Drake was a genius. I believe the family gave away all the song rights on the condition that his music stayed available and was never deleted.

A top pop moment from me teens. One of Joe Jackson's hits {I think 'Real Men' is mint}, or a Squeeze track or two {'Up The Junction', or 'Cool For Cats'}. Or one from this lad.Should be on this thread.

Didn't realise the involvement of Denny Laine and Rod Argent on this fine track.

Think this band played at Wolstanton Grammar School when this was in the charts.

I heard on the radio yesterday that when asked what it was like to be the world's best guitarist he replied "You'd better ask Prince"

Stevie Wonder produced some of his best work in the seventies. Innervisions, Fulfillingness and Song in the key of life all excellent.

Nick Drakes' mum was quite an interesting character, and beautiful singer. Molly Drake. Tunes on youtube. It's very Noel Coward/Joyce Grenfell quintessentially English tea dances. Officianados reckon you can detect similar phrasing in their work. Dunno it's interesting/atmosperic stuff. Some of her songs were actually recorded after Nick's death I believe.

I saw some on the TV programme about Nick. I think there is a CD of the whole family performing available as well. At the time next to nobody was buying his albums. That wasn't helped by his reluctance to tour and perform live. I used to buy the Island sampler LPs like Bumpers and El Pea so I enjoyed his stuff on those but there was so much other stuff going on I didn't get round to his albums until after his death. It's ubiquitous now of course. You find yourself humming the background music to a gardening prog on the TV and suddenly realise it's Nick. I wonder what he would make of that?
