So I've always liked this awesome little song off the Garden State soundtrack: "One of These Things First," by Nick Drake. I was just listening to it and decided to go to allmusic.com. The guys discography is amazing...three five star albums. WHY is the Garden State soundtrack the only place I've heard of him? I mean, in my humble opinion, my musical tastes are extremely eclectic and deep...[/asshole]

But, anyway, who else likes this guy?

He's the guy who did Pink Moon right? (Famous from that VW Beetle commercial if I'm not mistaken.)
I've heard a bit, and it's pretty good stuff.

Looooove the Drake!


I've really liked Nick Drake for some time now. I'll admit that I didn't know about him before the VW commercial in late-99/early-2000 or so, but then again, who the hell did? He died in 1972 or so.

The album Pink Moon is absolutely amazing, especially considering it's nothing but Drake and his guitar the entire album (except for a few measures of piano in the first song). The title track isn't even the best song on the album. Listening to it really puts me in a blue mood, though.

his other albums are really nice, but 'pink moon' is one of the greatest albums i've ever heard. it's truly amazing.
