jadarin thanks for recommending this album it is a cracker. It is amazing that it was even made after what Roky has been through just goes to show that there is light at the end of the tunnel no matter what life throws at you.

One of those albums that sometimes fits perfectly!
Re: Rock - what are you listening to?
sorry cybot, dunno how I missed this post. Yeah I've listened to all 3 albums a fair few times now. Five Leaves Left is probably the one I like best followed by Pink Moon. I'm not too sure about the 2nd album yet, something about it that I just can get handle on. I think perhaps its that I like the simpler arrangments of the music in the other 2 albums. But its early days yet. I've also introduced a friend of mine to Drake's music and he has taken a liking to it.cybot wrote:Well Dave have you cracked Nick's muse yet?

Hello Dave! I'm in total agreement with you as regards the Bryter Later album even though it does contain some vintage Nick Drake songs.In my opinion they're on the wrong album! The sunny, ever so slightly commercial feel of Bryter just doesn't do it for me and I don't think it ever will....Have you sampled any of the other posthumous collections yet? I would recommend 'Time of No Reply' to start off with anyway even though it doesn't contain the very last song he sang ('Tow the Line') but no matter it's still one of my favourite Nick albums... Anyway I hope your friend enjoys the journey.DaveF wrote:sorry cybot, dunno how I missed this post. Yeah I've listened to all 3 albums a fair few times now.

What's your favourite Sabs album stig ? Me, all I can say I loved the first three all those years ago and still do...I remember you couldn't get decent sounding Sabs vinyl for love or money and now they are everywhere! What do you think of the remasters with the totally unnecessary extra material?stigpepper wrote:
Favourite BS tracks in no particular order:
1.Sleeping Village/Warning
2.Planet Caravan (with Bill Ward doing the vocals!)
3.War Pigs
4.Behind the Wall of Sleep
5.Paranoid
6.Fairies Wear Boots
7.Solitude
8.Into the Void
9.Embro (especially the lovely feedback coda)
10.Hand of Doom
