NICK DRAKE 黑胶唱片和CD

Review: Nick Drake's influence is enduring some 50 years after his tragically early passing. The fragile beauty of his songs have a rare quality which is no doubt why this compilation was able to draw on such a heavyweight cast of artists to lay down their own renditions of Drake classics. Pleasingly, there's a wide range of styles and approaches here - Fontaines DC bring a countrified punk twang to 'Cello Song' and Guy Garvey sings over a lop-sided electro-jazz deconstruction of 'Saturday Sun' from Mike Lindsay while John Parish & Aldous Harding bring a kosmische thrust to their interpretation of 'Three Hours'. The magic of the originals bestows the artists with more than enough golden material to apply their respective practices and create dazzling new versions.
