Drake, Nick - Five Leaves Left - 24 bit SBM remaster
SKU
28-ISLAND842915
2000, 24-bit SBM remaster with lyrics, photos and Nick's hand-lettered lyrics(!) of the 1969 debut by this genuis folkie with the wonderful husky voice. Nick was possibly the greatest of the many great modern folkies who worked with Joe Boyd/Witchseason Productions/Island Records (John Martyn, Richard Thompson, etc). He released 3 really great albums and then he died (of probable, but not definite suicide) in 1974. Nice production from Joe, and good backing by Richard Thompson, Danny Thompson, Tristan Fry, and especially the very sympathetic strings of Robert Kirby. [Island]
