Nick Drake "Five Leaves Left" - Excellent Holiday Music
Quite possibly the greatest English folk album ever....

1. Ever listen to any early Tim Buckley?
You might find his music interesting.

2. I did actually
First time I heard him was, of all places, on a Monkees rerun.

Good stuff!

3. You are incredibly right-on about Nick Drake.
Great, great folksinger. I wish he were still with us.

4. The best, at any time
The first time I heard his work was around this time of year - both "Five Leaves Left" and "Bryter Layter."

Another fine one for the season: Incredible String Band's "The Hangman's Beautiful Daughter."

7. Just don't listen to "Black-Eyed Dog"
Edited on Fri Dec-24-04 01:28 PM by brentspeak
from "Time Of No Reply". That song could eradicate good cheer for years at a time.
