Folkies: heard of Nick Drake?

[Crawldaddy]

Hmm.

Anyone heard his stuff? I bought all of his 3 CDs about 2 years back and that stuff is great to just lie back and read stuff to.

The thing about Nick Drake is that his guitar playing involves loads of alternate tunings and his singing is just so... soft and unintrusive.

I think a lot of us could start listening to more of this kind of stuff instead of high-octane vai-isms all the time. Chill out and relax lah..

Nick Drake is great. I'm still learning to play "Man in a shed"........

 

[Crawldaddy]

Hmm.

LOL and here I am thinking that there are possibly zilch folkies here in S'pore.

Not that you MUST enjoy Nick Drake to be a folkie, if you enjoy Bob Dylan and Neil Young... yeah why not?

haha dude y dun u post some vids or songs here? dunno hu u are toking abt, but i sure am interested......

 

[Crawldaddy]

Hmm.

the trouble with Nick Drake is that his career was so short (but creative) and during those days when he did write music, he only did a few gigs which had a limited audience who did not bother to bring video cameras.

but how do I post song(without infringing copyright issues, that is)?

There ARE a lot of Nick Drake fans in SG. Probably not in this forum.
