Page dedicated to everything Nick Drake

Have you heard Will Cookson? Go ahead and google his name, his website pops up first. You will NOT be sorry. His music is quite different from Nick's but the themes of nature, time, life, death, love, etc... and their emotional impact are very much the same. Check him out!!! He is as close to Nick reborn as we will ever get, I'm sure.

For everyone reading this, Will Cookson is quite good. Personally, he sounds like a mix of Michael Hedges and Nick Drake.

The person I most often hear compared to Nick that is currently living is Will Stratton. He actually has a Tumblr and sites Nick as one of his influences.

hey I am nick drake why you guys no follow me?

“That Nick Drake tape you love/Tonight it sounds so good…”

Cuz it’s Sunday morning. And nothing says Sunday morning like some Nick Drake. Or Clem Snide singing about Nick Drake. Or singing about a Nick Drake tape. You get what I’m saying, right?

From their “You Were A Diamond” LP, here’s Clem Snide with ‘Nick Drake Tape’.

Enjoy…

“Maybe he was just too sensitive? Flayed by everything that life threw at him? A pure soul which had underestimated the difficulties of earthly incarnation and which had risen back to heaven almost as quickly as it had come down, after having given the world pearls too beautiful and which it hadn’t wanted…”

- Françoise Hardy on Nick Drake (via busangel)

“To listen to Nick Drake is to step out of this world of pose and noise, and enter a quiet oak-panelled room, dappled with sunlight - a room opening, through French windows, into a lush garden, quiet because we’re in the country, far from the sound of the city. It’s summer, bees and birds are abroad in the shade, and, beyond the nearby trees, a soft tangle of voices and convivial laughter can be felt, along with the dipping of languid oars in the rushy river winding through cool woods and teeming meadows hereabouts.”

Ian MacDonald, The People’s Music

Still it’s time that grows in my brain

still it’s time that calls me again

still I scream when time ticks

still I cringe from times tricks

still I groan for times lapse

but still I’ll try for time perhaps.
