Any fans of his here?

I think "Place to be" off the Pink Moon record could be one of the most powerful songs I have ever heard.

Nick played with and from his heart, something thats missing in todays music scene

  • what i have/know i really like. i definitely need to get more of his stuff.
    me you wouldn't recall, cause i'm not my former.
  • Even better is the home recording of "Place To Be" which he plays in a fingerpicking style. It's absolutley devastating.
  • one of the most underrated songwriters of all time

    Huge fan here. I have all 3 albums, the rarities disc, and the 'greatest hits' collection on SACD.

    Pink Moon is the one Drake that I dont have.

    I like that he sung in his own accent at a time when many british artists were impersonating (interpreting) american bluesmen,,,,,,most english guys who sing with their own dialect are hard on my ear
