Pink Moon

4.5/5 https://rateyourmusic.com/release/album/nick-drake/pink-moon/ Clearly Nick Drake's best work and an album without which people like Sufjan Stevens might never have made music. His work is so much nicer without the orchestral arrangement of his other albums, focusing only on his voice and some sparse instrumentals. Lovely.

Really nice to listen to, like a soft lullaby cover to cover, I like however that it isn’t afraid to be a bit haunting in a few songs Favorites are parasite, things behind the sun, the title track, and harvest breed

Eigenlijk toch wel heel aardig. De moeite waard zou ik zo wel even willen zeggen.

Wonderful Album. Puts me in a comfy, nostalgic mood. Album is a bit monotonous overall. I like the length of 27 Min.

Phenomenally weird album cover. Not something I would typically listen to but great vibes overall. Super chill with fun guitar playing.

I think it’s not only important how you listen to an album but where too. Listening to this decidedly autumnal skeletal music whilst sat in a hotel on a tropical island probably isn’t the time and the place but beauty is beauty wherever you hear it. Delicate, fragile songs driven by his pained voice. Simple but excellent acoustic guitar, and carefully wrought songs. A simple pleasure

Nick Drake walked so Sufjan Stevens could run.

Didn’t even realize I knew this artist or this album but I definitely do. Yeah this kind of thing is right up my alley, I could listen to it forever. Shocking to hear from a guy whose last review was about his plans to cry to Phoebe Bridgers all weekend! Nick Drake’s voice isn’t super strong but the overall effect is very mellowing. Made me feel like I was wrapped up in a blanket on the couch on a rainy November morning, which is one of my most preferred ways to feel. The lyrics are so raw that it almost feels intrusive to listen to some of the songs. This will for sure be going into the rotation. Second act montage needle drop in my biopic: “Which Will”

I love you forever nick drake

sonic quaalude pink moon is a comfort album for me. i love nick drake & im happy to see his whole discography made this list, i think all 3 of his albums deserve it the guitar playing on this record is just excellent, i really want to try out the open tunings he was using. the fingerstyle is so full and expressive & accompanies his voice so well. also the fret buzz is perfect to me esp on know parasite is my favorite because i <3 pain and suffering . but truly i don’t think i would really listen to any of these tracks individually or put them on a playlist when the album itself is so short && like yes all the songs sound the same but to me pink moon is a singular mood more than it is a progression of tracks with different tones egg and luna bar

Det er ikkje alt som er gøy, og godt er det. Flott plate, utan krumspring men med fine låtar, nydeleg gitarspel og mykje eigenart. Dette var ein fin lytt. Personleg favoritt: Which Will.

Ikke ofte jeg er innom Drake lengre, men denne er jo veldig fin og skal jeg høre på Nick så blir det stort sett denne. Ble spilt bra mye på nachspiel på studentradioen i sin tid. Ikke fryktelig spennende og er jeg i beit for fyr med kassegitar så spiller jeg oftere Elliott Smith.

De to første albumene skaffet jeg meg før denne. Dessverre rakk Volkswagen akkurst å lage tv-reklame av Pink Moon før jeg fikk hørt plata første gang. På ingen måte Nick Drake sin feil dette her, men hodet mitt har altså albumet arkivert som den kommersielle tv-reklame-plata. Sellout! Har man først havnet der er det vanskelig å komme tilbake. Pink Moon er innmari fin, men jeg elsker den ikke.

Great introduction to Nick Drake and 60/70’s singer song writers.

Never listened before but very nice. Lovely guitar and instrumentals, deep boy shit.

Great album, much better and more interesting than I thought it would be.

Great album, but nothing incredibly memorable about it. Very consistent. I would rate just about every song a 4/5, but unfortunately there is nothing about the album that takes it to the next level for me.

I've listened to this album a few times before, so I'm a bit biased. I'm glad I have though, as I think Nick Drake's appeal really comes out after the first couple listens. His lyrics are weird and his guitar work somewhat experimental, and it all doesn't feel very cohesive until you change your field of focus a bit and enjoy the package as a whole. Worth it though, because when you do you get some of the best singer-songwriter work of the century. Nick Drake is quiet, reserved, and you can feel this burgeoning confidence that only gets to exist when he picks up an acoustic guitar and just lets it tell his story. It's saccharine, melancholic, a chamomile tea lounging on the patio on a dewy Saturday morning. Fav tracks: Pink Moon, Horn, Things Behind The Sun

great fall music, super chill

Wow this was amazing. I recognized his voice but not any of the songs.

A beautiful, understated album that I know I haven't fully unlocked yet. Nick Drake's fingerpicked guitar is the clear standout, and the title track immediately earned a second listen. The lyrics haven't completely connected with me yet, but I can already tell this is an album that rewards patience. It's not one that grabs you immediately—it slowly invites you back.

I feel his 3rd release is not as good as his 1st 2 albums. Still a good listen and it was very daring to go it alone just him b his guitar.

I did really dig this album! I could see myself getting lost in it again, but I still wouldn’t think of it as a favorite. Although, I will admit that I do think that it would grow on me more and more with each listen. I feel like recently this album has been appearing all over the place so it’s cool I finally got to sit down and listen to it

Very cool and mellow. Different from the other folk records on the list. Really enjoyed it like a brief respite from the elctronica.

This is super creative singer/songwriter music. The way he uses his guitar to accent the melodies is sick. 8.25/10

Beautiful album

Nick Drake, but even more stripped-down. Still great. 4.0/5.0: Great

i have similar thoughts on this as i did with the last nick drake album we had. this is hauntingly beautiful. not really my thing but very good

Great, already listened to it tho. Pink moon pink moon pink moon

I have heard this album once or twice before. Even so, it is clear this album is a grower and not a shower. The songs have a certain beauty to them that feels vintage. Not overly flashy in any sense. One that will take dozens more listens to appreciate.

Mellow, fit for the ideal mood - Sunday lazing or sentimental moseying

Pre Listen: Very striking album cover. I wonder if it has any symbolism, or if it's just some random nonsense. I like the weird clown looking dude on it. Never heard of this guy, so no expectations. Notable Tracks: Things Behind the Sun - Favorite track. Adding to my playlist, man I love the sound of this one. It's both melancholic and gentle, while being a bit eerie and hopeful? Very unique song. Know - Least favorite song, it's the most repetitive sounding out of an already somewhat repetitive album. Nick's gonna break his guitar strings if he keeps strumming like that too. Parasite - Another high point for me. The guitar chord progressions remind me of 'Hey Prudence' from the Beatles. Post Listen: I think this is the first all-acoustic, single musician album I've gotten on here so far? Pretty good one too, very nice. I appreciate toned down albums like this one quite a bit. It helps that Nick's voice is really soft, soothing, and gentle, as is his guitar playing. Every song feels like a warm blanket, or sitting by a low fire on a cool summer evening. It also helped I was driving through rural mountain roads listening to this one, it felt very cozy and fitting. That said, the songs do start to get a bit repetitive, individually they are all great, but back to back they start to blend. Nick's got a style, and sticks with it, and there's nothing wrong with it, but for a full album I look for a bit more variety. I may fall asleep to this album sometime. I think I'd sleep to it very well, 4/5

Un album muuuy tranquilo, como para escuchar en un momento de relajacion, altamente recomendado

Hopefull, Sadness, annoyance, acceptance, intimate and regret

Super mysig skiva. Väldigt lugn och tankarna börjar flöda. 4/5

Oddly beautiful, nice acoustic album. Liked it a lot!

Oh, it's nice! It's a very warm and cozy feeling album despite the very dark context and aftermath of the album itself. Just like the title of the album, it feels like basking in the warm glow of an amber moon while staring at the stars. While I don't think it's the masterpiece people swear by, it has a very simple job of immersing the listener and it passes with flying colors.

Sad, beautiful, perfect for listening while sitting in the emergency room or a long walk under autmn leaves.

Beautiful record

This is fucking amazing

Muito bom

its so soft and melancholy all at the same time. its like a quiet sort of sadness combined with a transcendental sort of peace. i wonder if theres a story to go with the album but i couldnt dissect the lyrics enough for that

Easy listening Liking the troubadour vibe Cool for rainy afternoon

Pink Moon is a beautifully peaceful and melancholic album, and I was instantly captivated by the gentle vocals and delicate acoustic guitar. It's a lovely, calming record that I have a feeling will grow on me with each listen.

This album is just what I needed to listen to. Nice and chill and although I didn't listen to a ton of the lyrics. I could read from other reviews and from listening to some of them that they're really impactful. I'd listen to this again.

An obviously great album but not one that i would consider a personal favourite. I appreciate how short it is and there are a couple of fantastic songs on here but I do think it's a bit too repetitive and stripped back for my tastes, even if it is one of the better albums in this style that I've heard.

Jeg synes godt nok at det her var fedt. Jeg tror generelt at jeg får ret svært ved at give et album jeg aldrig har hørt før 5 stjerner - Det er som om at det bare kræver flere gennemspilninger og/eller en overbevisning om at det vil være noget jeg vender tilbage til. Med det sagt, så har begge Nick Drake albums på listen so far været totalt fede. Glæder mig til mere!

Et af de albums, der virkelig fortjener et ekstra lyt 3.9

Ud over titelnummeret, har jeg ikke rigtig hørt Nick Drake før. Det bliver ikke sidste gang det bliver sat på!

a really chill, really nice easy album to listen to

mooi, rustig

This is my favorite of his albums. The title track is a great song. He was one we lost too soon.

Timeless chill tunes

Definitely a distinct vibe and got some guitar inspiration, will listen again

85

Enjoyed.

Great album. Only thing keeping it from a 5 is that a lot of the songs sound kind of same-y but not much better sad-boy folk music out there.

I like this album. I'm going with 4 stars because it definitely sounds like and probably inspired one of my favorite albums of all time - songs by Adrianne Lenker. Thank you!

7/10. Slow, smooth, and laid back. A good listen if you're fishing or something like that. Got a bit of a JJ.Cale, folky feel, but his voice is higher pitched and there's less southern feel to it. Somewhat comforting.

it was great.

I love the song Pink Moon. The album isn't my favorite by him (give me Five Leaves Left or Bryter Layter).

Great old folk

Very pleasant

Lühike album, aga uskumatult intiimne ja meeldejääv. Nagu Nick istuks minuga samas toas ja mängiks ahjutule taustal. Tüübi kitarrimäng on päris huvitav ka, palju erinevaid häälestusi ja tüüp mängib lood nii täis vaid ühe pilliga. Pole travis picking, vaid selline traditsioonilisem kitarri sõrmitsemine. Tõesti hea plaat, kahju vaid, et see tema elu ajal nii suurt kõlapinda ei leidnud. 4/5

I really liked this!!!

Nearly nearly nearly a 5 for me but honestly there’s a few moments that really bore me (Know especially). But much love for Nick Drake and the story behind this album. Really love his guitar work on (most of) this one. The one two punch of Pink Moon and Place to Be alone is enough to build a legacy on. Also I hate Elliott Smith

Such a simple album, crazy that there’s literally one piano line on the entire thing, and when it comes in it hits. Title track is great, some other tracks clearly inspired Desert Island Disk, beautiful album.

Not as life changing as it’s hyped up to be, but really solid still

You can feel the emotion in the songs and its a great combination of acoustic guitar and vocals

A simple folk album, yet comfortable and lush beyond its time

Really enjoyable. I had no idea what to expect. Felt American (in a good way) and raw but not too serious.

Haven’t listened to this since high school. Holds up

Спокойно, приятно, слушала

i really loved his voice

This is a lovely album, and not at what I'm in the mood for today. Seriously great album though.

Cool album in its raw simplicity

This album felt like I wanna live in Perfect Days, and put this on as a cassette in the morning before I start my work. The guitar has the certain strung, and forward going energy to it. The notes and metal strings are fragile, but push you in a gentle way. It is different, when compared to something like harp, where strings are plucked, floating. Even though it's a bit mixed feelings to listen to man and guitar these days, I enjoyed the authenticity of this album. This had vulnerability.

Maybe I'm a bit too generous here but I really think that I would be able to enjoy this more in the future. Therefore, it should actually be a 3 but there's inherent potential in this for me. 3.8

Really enjoyed. Beautiful album for 1972 as well. I didn’t realise that style of indie was from as long ago as that. Gorgeous flow of an album, incredible lyricism. Incredible to settle into

Acoustic guitar and vocals. This album was never popular in its day. It gained a following many years later, after Nick Drake's death. This is the 1970's equivalent to Bon Iver and Jose Gonzalez, the moody, depressed, acoustic signer/songwriter vibe. 7/10

Gostosinho

I like the atmosphere and the vibe. I like Drake's voice, but the breathiness and quietness make him difficult to understand at times. I could probably reduce the sound pollution in my workspace to help remedy that issue, but I honestly can't be bothered to do so. Where I'm listening, the instruments punch through and the vocals take on a gentle, murmurous quality. It ends up being quite delightful. My apologies to the artist for disregarding what I'm sure are very meaningful lyrics.

I didn’t vibe with this a ton until I listened a few times as I thought it was a bit underbaked / raw / simplistic. I’ve heard the title track quite a bit as Spotify has shoved it in my face over the years. I like the raw sound he’s got and how it’s seemingly just stripped down to him on this album. It’s incredible how old this record is. Some songs could be from the 90s/00s. Light 4.

Wow, every nick drake album made this list. Usually I'd say it's a bit much but I think 2 out of the 3 have been well worth a listen, including this one. Can't quite remember what bryter layter sounded like (it was album 121) but this stripped back acoustic approach was the perfect fit for his voice. Again this felt ahead of it's time and potentially influential on the singer songwriters to come. Breezed by and would like to listen again.

Our third nick Drake album and it was of the same ilk of the others, which is very good. But stylistically very similar. He was very good at his thing. I think I might've enjoyed the other albums we've had just as much as this one, but I see this is more highly rated. Place to be, pink moon and things behind the sun were my favourites

Great

1001 Albums introduced me to this great artist. Loved him ever since. However, a whole album gets a bit monotonous sorry to say

not my cup of tea and also quite boring. good guitar smooth singing

This was beautiful, melodious and melancholic. Very calming and yet sad. What a soul. 8/10

Love it!

Sooo sad

Nice, chill album. 3.75 bumped up to four stars.

Really good stuff

A great album, but the standout songs outshine everything else, making it feel long even at 27 minutes.

Really interesting yet simple albums full of nostalgia and good for family functions in the sun

This was great. I knew Pink Moon and a few other songs of his on other albums, but first time hearing the rest of this. Great sounding stuff. Influenced a lot of modern indie folk.

Very understated album. Lots of imagery in the lyrics, and it's certainly powerful. I think it's the right length, any more would be too much, it is arguably very samey, but it doesn't outstay its welcome. Nick's singing here is different to on Five Leaves Left; it's more mumbled, and he rushes through the phrases. I have to say I prefer his voice on Five Leaves Left - I think it's a better showcase of how good his voice actually is. However, I think the lyrical content here has more impact. The instrumentation is extremely minimal; basically just acoustic guitar and voice. The guitar playing isn't particularly special, but the nature of the recording makes it feel like a private concert. It definitely works. An extremely sad album, but one I'd revisit in a reflective mood. Mid 4.

I was really excited to hear this after the masterpiece that was 5 Leaves Left. I usually don't go into an album actively looking at lyrics but 5 leaves left demanded my attention and brought me to tears so here we go My heart dropped when I saw it was a solo acoustic guitar + vocals project; regardless I turned on the first song and my prejudice was washed away by the beautiful sound of his voice. So ashy and shy, it really feels like he's opening up about his life honestly and you are the only one in the room. He's got some astonishing song writing skills, really just embeds into your brain. I really feel like I'm being biased here but I've never wanted to listen to a guy strum a guitar more. I'm so conflicted. On the one hand I think his other albums showcase how strong of a songwriter he is when he has more instruments at his disposal. On the other hand I love how personal this album is. I'm going to go with an extremely extremely high 4 for now I'm just sad he only got to make 3 albums...

Super chill, relaxing

I used to like this album a lot.

4.5 I liked this way more than I expected to!

Beautiful work, the story of Nick Drake's gradual rise in popularity is a very interesting one. I find this album to be a bit unfinished though. It's very short and sparse which is kind of intended I suppose, but still. I find his other 2 albums to be a bit more enjoyable as full on works.

Day 1: Pink Moon by Nick Drake ------------------------ Never heard of Nick Drake nor this album before so I'm going in with no expectations. I can image myself listening to this at night as a lullaby of sorts. Pretty nice to listen to while falling asleep. His voice is very soft on this album which goes with his guitar playing. The album is pretty short, which is a surprise to me, but that doesn't matter that as much. I wish there was more piano on it, since it's just him playing the guitar for the entire album. ------------------------ Fav Song(s): Horn, Parasite Song(s) that I didn't like as much: Know Overall Rating: 4/5, it's good, but I don't see myself listening to this more.

I recently described Jeff Buckley’s vocals as ethereal. The same could be said of Nick Drake. In fact, the two seem to share more in common: both were superb songwriters, and both died tragically young. Drake never had a successful career in the US, so I never heard much of his music before today. This album is sad, beautiful and - yes, ethereal. I thought I had heard what an acoustic guitar could sound like, but this proved me wrong. Drake’s guitar playing is unique sounding, sometimes off key, but it seems intentional. The result is a feeling of loss that transcends mere depression. Too short an album reflects too short a life and career. This is the album that this project was made for. You need to hear this album. 4 stars

very lovely

This held me from behind without getting a boner

It's really pretty and calming. His voice is so delightful. I remember finding this album in high school, it speaks to a quiet longing we all have inside. One of my favorite albums is a collection of Visee's guitar works. This reminds me of it for many reasons. Feels like I'm at court, serenaded by a fountain. A melancholy musician strumming, fall of empire.

Good but sad

Beautiful, rich, relaxing.

chilling and captivating. too young, man.

This album has atmosphere for days and is a truly unique entry. The lore behind it is pretty interesting as well. His guitar style is very interesting amd original for sure back then. I do prefer some tracks from his earlier work with a bit more substance, but this still stands out. If it were longer it would overstay its welcome, but at this runtime its a true gem

Un álbum nocturno, como esas noches en las que uno se queda despierto hasta ver el amanecer, así se sintió escuchar Pink Moon de Nick Drake. Sabiendo todo el contexto detrás es un disco que pega bastante fuerte, no tanto por las letras porque en su mayoría son ambiguas y extrañas, sino por la interpretación de la voz y la guitarra impresionantemente tocada por Nick, es corto y sabe cómo manejar el tiempo de las canciones, sin dudas una experiencia muy hermosa.

Very enjoyable album. I had heard a song of his that is not on this album, and just like that one, this album has a haunting, lo-fi sound that feels very intimate. I think it’s a result of both, his almost ethereal voice added to the acoustic guitar that sounds like it has a mic right up against it.

4/5

Not the best Drake’s album. I know, I get all that “minimalism”, “intimacy” etc., but it just doesn’t fully work for me in this case.

It's really too bad that Northern Sky isn't on this album because that's by far his best song, but this is definitely his best album. It's a bit much to listen to in large doses though....very sleepy.

I'd never heard the whole album, and I don't think I knew that he wrote Which Will, which I knew from Lucinda's version. Sad and lovely.

Pink Moon is one of those albums that feels less like a performance and more like someone quietly sitting across from you, telling you exactly how they feel without ever raising their voice. The title track immediately pulled me in, the gentle guitars, subtle piano, and Nick Drake’s fragile vocals come together in a way that feels deeply human. It’s short, stripped down, and authentic, the kind of song made for long drives, lonely walks, or moments where you just need to sit with your thoughts. What struck me most throughout the album is how the minimal presentation puts every lyric and guitar progression under a microscope. Songs like “Place to Be,” “Road,” and “Which Will” pause time for a moment, letting Drake’s incredible guitar playing and quietly devastating songwriting take centre stage. Knowing his struggles with depression adds another layer to tracks like “Place to Be” and “Parasite,” but I never felt like the album wallows in sadness. Instead, there’s a melancholy that feels broader, almost reflective of the disillusionment that hung over the early 1970s after the optimism of the previous decade faded away. Even the shortest songs leave a lasting impact. “Horn” is a beautiful instrumental that says everything without words, while “Know” somehow manages to haunt with only a few lines. “Things Behind the Sun” especially stayed with me, shifting between warmth and darkness like someone trying to hold onto hope while watching it slip away. Then “From the Morning” closes the album with a fragile sense of light breaking through the clouds. I’m really glad I was reintroduced to this album. Maybe it’s the season, or maybe it’s because life feels brighter right now, but this record gave me space to slow down and breathe for a while. Nick Drake left us far too soon, but he left behind an intimate, timeless album that still feels deeply moving over fifty years later. 8.8/10

Pretty interesting atmosphere

Så begåvad singer-song-writer. Love it! Stark fyra!

I enjoyed this! Super minimal instrumentation. Echos the chill vibes of other folksy players of that era. The vocals complement the many unique and cool guitar passages — sets it apart. 4.0/5.0

Surreal and beautiful. Sounds before its time. Cool guitar

Just a really beautiful sounding album. Nick Drake melancholy - just his voice and his guitar.

Another solid album. Nick Drake is great. Pretty sure I heard some of his tracks on a Wes Anderson movie? A couple are very familiar. This one is mostly just him on guitar. Real good. Hard to say whether I like this one or Bryter Layter better. Different vibes for different moods. Looks like all his albums are on this list, so I look forward to getting around to the last one eventually (chronologically his first one?). I dig Nick Drake. Great album.

This is a shockingly nice album to listen to. It was calming and relaxing and it just made me feel nice. Nothing too special about this album though.

True "I see the vision but it's not for me" album. It's one for the fans of rawness and lyricism! I am only that if the instrumentation can match, but the guitar work here -- mesmerizing as it was for the first half or so -- gradually lost its allure as the album went on. Can't see myself coming back to it unfortunately! Edit: I lied. I came back to it. The intimate feel is truly alluring and quite unique. 4 stars up from 2 stars. Standouts: Pink Moon • Know • Parasite

I'm not really able to explain what I like about this album, but this challenge has definitely shown me that some of my favorites are these intimate albums that sound like you and your friend are having a deep conversation and you are getting an unprecedented look into his mind.

Pensive, depressing, wistful. Gets the job done more successfully than similar records to this on this list.

Sure the songs are kind of all similar, but it's a wonderfully soothing listen nonetheless.

Un album tranquilo pero que no es de mis preferencias, el primer tema es una obra maestra igualmente.

Nice, good. Kind of Radiohead at points

Добро, грусть, нежность Такая крутая гитара

Un disco de Nick Drake siempre es bienvenido. Yo lo descubrí en los 90 (algo similar pasó con Sixto Rodriguez), como muchos, gracias a Elliot Smith, Arthur Rusell, Badly drawn boy, Lou Barlow, Mark Eitzel y tantos otros. The Dream Academy le dedicó Life in a Northern Town. Elton John, Chris de Burgh o Paul Weller también tienen su historia con este genio. Aquí está en un sonico más desnudo, me gusta menos que sus dos anteriores joyas, pero no significa que sea un disco siquiera regular. Grabado en dos sesiones de dos horas a partir de la medianoche, es un álbum sobrio, guitarra, la voz de Nick que recuerda a veces a Cohen, y algo de piano. Sin más, 11 temas en menos de media hora. Lo pones, mejor tarde, y lo disfrutas del tirón. Pink Moon es una delicia, no envano la usó Volkswagen en sus anuncios. El resto, similar aunque se echan de menos las roqeustaciones de sus doas anteriores discos. Su último disco, se murió poco después, las drogas que a él no le vinieron nada bien con su introvertida personalidad...

drake… ik ken pink moon deze beter dan de vorige, wat meer karakter

Pretty good, especially for such a short album

Acoustic guitar, smooth vocals 5

Vary interesting finger style guitar but the vocals don't really do much for me not that they are bad or anything but over all I liked it because I am a sucker for folk music

Loved this chill vibe!

I actually really enjoyed this one! I wasn't sure what to expect, I've seen this album at work for years, but I don't think I've heard any Nick Drake before. I was pleasantly surprised by the folky vibe that isn't country and is almost psychedelic at times. Definitely one to pick up on vinyl!

A very pleasant sounding sad album

Very pleasant, short and earthy songs. Whole thing is worth a listen but I personally found "Which Will" and "From The Morning" particularly touching

The best from his small but impressive catalogue. Such a voice and a talent, such a sad tale. Always enjoy this one.

I don't quite get it but I also do Will I listen to again: 70%

Easylistening

really good. Enjoyed the melancholy dissident nature of the album.

Pink Moon is a testament to what can be done with some instrumentals, a violently depressing vocal performance and some solid symbolism. In some ways this album would be better with more instrumentation but songs like Parasite stand alone as near perfect tracks by utilising the guitar to create such a somber tone.

Very pretty, very soothing and very short. It’s like the perfect album.

Simply put it's a beautiful deep album. This album has played at my grandpa and a close friend's funeral. How ironic that those were the only times I was familiar with this album. The guitar is clean and his vocals are gentle but not too boring. I wouldn't listen to this regularly but it's nice.

неплохо, вайбово.

canciones muy chill. tipo LoFi. banque. 4 puntos

I already listened to this album many times. I love this album

A beautiful songwriter album, just a man and his guitar. He has a great voice and emotes well. I love the opening track, great start for this album.

Очень спокойный альбом, вызывает какое то чувство дежавю, не знаю пока скачивать или нет музыку из него, я как будто слушаю саундтрек от какого то фильма из 90-ых

the songs seem a bit simple, lyrics are good though. The songs sound the same a bit he's barely singing just basically whispering some songs are pretty good, but still fairly boring A bit atmospheric

This is what 1001 albums you must hear before you die is for. Beautiful songs, beautiful album

Soothing

mellow asl, lowkey fire

Cool album!! Loved the guitar tone and creative playing

Beautiful, calming album

This was really a wonderful album. I haven’t been able to listen to the lyrics super critically, but the feeling of isolation and depression the music presents is well executed. I ended up listening to this album three times yesterday, I think this one is a keeper.

Álbum voz e violão simplesmente genial. Arranjos perfeitos, músicas tocam na alma, passa um sentimento ímpar. Famoso menos é mais!!!!

I have fond memories of passing this album around with friends in college and recognize all the elements of genius in it, but I also have to admit that for some reason it doesn't come together for me in a way that makes it a favorite album.

Felt very personal. It was good

A hidden gem. Stripped down, it's just Drake and his guitar. Sparse but hopeful lyrics, delivered with his soft but melodic voice. Some of the songs are sad, but the album ends on a thoughtful point. Very sweet, but not saccharine.

even though the album was from the early 70s, the music is timeless. it seemed it could have been released yesterday. i liked it alot.

Good

Very chill vibes. Felt very relaxing.

3.5 + half star for album art

This listener set out on this new adventure blind to many styles of music and deaf in one ear due to an errant step on my IEMs. This album couldn't be any better of a place to begin. I sit and am soothed and gently tugged into this album. The titular track lures you into the mystery of the remainder of the album. Your journey is like a walk around a garden after awakening from a dream you wish were true. The voice whispers behind a veil of mist, but the air rings with the sound of fingers picking on tight strings. You can hear Nick Drake's fingerprints on the coiled steel. An album of atmosphere and round sounds that encompasses all of you.

I really like the songwriting but the guitar playing and vocals are a bit more raw than some of the contemporary music I like, aside from Things Behind The Sun and a few others. It would be so cool to listen to a re-recorded version with new mastering by modern producers. Sort of reminds me of CAKE in that the composing is excellent but lacks the polished sound I look for in music. Still probably my favorite album so far on 1001 Albums.

I’ve heard of Nick Cave, but don’t think I really know that he was from the early 70s. Think he just popped in a folk playlist. This is quite good music. It sounds so familiar. I’ve definitely heard Pink Moon. And much of this seems very influential to the indie folk scene of the past 20-25 years. I can hear this influence on artists like Bon Iver and Iron and Wine. Honestly if I didn’t know the year, would’ve thought this was more contemporary. This feels like a solid 4. Going to give another listen because it feels like it could be a 5, but just not sure there’s enough to take it over the edge for me. Great singer songwriter folk music. Timeless really. The closing track might be my favorite on the album. This is all just so simple perfect music.

Classic

Every time you put this on, just takes you to another place. Unique. 4.1/5

Simplicity can be incredibly haunting.

For a guy doing some relatively simple songs for voice and acoustic guitar, this record sounds weirdly ahead of its time. You can definitely hear how ND influenced singer-songwriters and indie musicians of the 90s and 00s, and now his whisper voice is the main style of singing for the "bedroom pop" crowd. Underrated guitarist too. This is just an undeniably good record.

With an album name like this I was not expecting to enjoy it as much as I did, really soothing. Album cover is sick too

I've heard occasional songs from Nick Drake on the radio over the past however many years, but this is the first time I've heard an entire album of his. I had to brace myself a bit for this, thinking it might be a dozy, calm acoustic album, but I was pleasantly surprised - it was a little dark, and had a good sense of rhythm to a lot of it. I think it's like how I like folk music from the UK and Scandinavia more than American folk, there's a darkness to a lot of it that I like. I don't know if I'd go back to this, but it was good to finally hear a whole Nick Drake album. I see why people think this is such an important album. 4 stars

This would be a FANTASTIC album to listen to in the back seat of a car, riding during an afternoon rainstorm. Incredibly soothing, but also fills you with an undeniable sense of melancholy. I decided after the first song to turn on background noise in my phone’s settings to have the sound of a gentle rain playing quietly behind the album. It enhanced the experience tenfold and made the songs feel even more intimate and gloomy. It almost feels like I’m not supposed to hear this. It’s a similar feeling I get when listening to the Kurt Cobain home recordings. It feels unfinished, but I think that was intentional. It’s very stripped back, unpolished, imperfect, and emotionally raw, just a voice and a guitar. This is the swan song of a young artist who took his own life only two years after the album’s release. And it feels like it. Is this something I’ll run to revisit any time soon? Not particularly. But it’ll be perfect when I find myself neck deep in a depressive episode. I’ll rate it a 3.7/5, rounding up to 4. Favorite songs: Pink Moon, Which Will, Things Behind the Sun

really good lyrics, chill album to listen to, going back home a bit nostalgic

love nick drake

What a deep and beautiful record. Totally new acquaintance for me. A listen it through with care, and followed the lyrics through Spotify. Amazing lyricist, Nick Drake. At that point I was already prepared to give a four. Then I did some further reading on Nick Drake. The tragic of his life, the way he felt about live performance, and then the music he create with such a depth around those matters. Wow, beautiful, and deep. Nothing more to say.

I don't remember liking Bryter Layter but I don't know if I was just in the right mood or time of day for this album but I really enjoyed it. Smooth, relaxing, and really enjoyable listening experience.

Classic sad jams

my first Drake album, thought there'd be more rap but still pretty good

Magnificent

4/5

I hearded the album while reading the biography of Nick Drake, so, somehow, I got to know him better. It's a pity he left us so young

Great album, so comforting

Unique, singer song-writer that feels quite modern. Enjoyable to listen through with a couple standout songs. Multiple songs feel like lullabies

I love this album, it’s so comforting and precise. A really beautiful work

7 flat love nick drake and the title track is perhaps his best single but i feel like the overall album lacks consistency especially toward the back end. Much prefer bryter layter overall

70s - 80s Guitar solo album, basically, but I would definitely listen.

Pretty much just acoustic guitar with melancholy lyrics to drift your mind off to. It works beautifully though, both in the skill of his playing but also in capturing that late at night feeling of despair mixed with hope and the choice of how to move forward. I grew to enjoy what Nick was doing on every listen and by the time I got here I have become very fond of what he put to the record. Pink Moon, Horn, Things Behind the Sun and Parasite are the highlights for a highlight of an album.

melodico, muy tranquilo, estilo cantautor, melancolico, suave, 4/5 por el mood

Beautiful, tortured, sometimes barely there. I usually don't like this kind of thing but Drake had a special gift.

Sounds so ahead of its time, would never have guessed 1972.

Wasn't sure about this one at first. But a few plays through and it hit me. Very simplistic, and that's part of the charm. Learning about the artist adding so much more to it. Overall a great album to stick on and chill to.

😮‍💨

Another gay sad guitar guy added to my collection. I am maclovin it

His third album. Folk /Acoustic. A 100% authentic, raw, beautiful and even tragic album. Simple melodies and soft vocals. Twenty eight minutes of complicated simplicity from a man struggling on the inside but still able to make something beautiful on the outside.

10/04/2026 It's amazing that this album wouldn't even be out of place in today's music world. Spotify listeners: 2.3 million

Been stuck on this one a while. Not because I couldn’t finish it, but because I couldn’t rate it. This is one that I thought would be a guaranteed 5, even though I’ve never listened to it fully before. I ended up listening to it 3 or 4 times, and I kept waiting for it to hit me that it’s as special as I assumed it would be. And while it’s very good, it just never fully clicked with me. I love his voice, I love the music. There’s just something missing. So it’s a high 4/5.

Not really mu preferred genre but just so chill and calming. Delightful ton on the guitar.

I’m a sucker for some sad acoustic folk.

pretty, minimalistic

It's a nice relaxed album. Very melancholic feel throughout. I didn't really listen to the lyircs much but I'm assuming he's being a sad boy. 3/5.

favs – Pink Moon, Road, Which Will^

Pretty mellow and nice music although the songs all sounded pretty much alike. I would give it a 3.5, but I like to round up so it gets a 4

pretty different than what i'd normally listen to, but very much enjoyed this. actually wish this album was a little longer cause its very soothing and raw. (love how you can hear each strum of the guitar for example, a lot of the sounds aren't mixed out and seems to be kept intentionally which i like a lot.) nick drakes voice is very nice and clear. would love to hear more stuff like this.

je l'ai déjà dans mes favoris sur Spotify, même si c'est un disque que j'ai très peu écouté.

Would be good on a long drive, I like this a lot. Reminds me of The World is a Beautiful Place a little. Dad definitely had this on his playlist so it’s almost nostalgic.

It’s a lovely album and Nick Drake has always been one of those artists I should really like but it tends to be one or two songs that do it for me and the rest I can take or leave. It’s an excellent collection of songs though and a pleasure to listen to.

Great songwriting

melancholisch, nice

This album didn't click for me right away on the first listen, but on the second play I find it much more interesting. I never expected that I'd enjoy such sad-guy singer-songwriter stuff so much.

Suena muy pacífico, me hace pensar en ir caminando yo sola en un lugar con muchos árboles. Creo que sería una gran opción para escuchar mientras leo o estudio. Realmente me gustó, va a la playlist <3

Pretty good I liked it

I never heard Nick Drake until the resurgence of Pink Moon in the 2000s for the car commercial. Full album sounds pretty good.

E aqui concluo a discografia de Nick Drake, com seu terceiro e último álbum, que surpreendentemente, eu gerei em ordem cronológica na lista. As composições daqui são mais simples do que nunca, apenas voz e violão, sem adornos, sem complementos, o puro. Algo que eu aprecio mas não necessariamente amo, visto que minha pira musical se encontra em outros lugares. Consigo notar o ótimo songwriting de Nick Drake tanto neste disco quanto em seus outros, por mais que muitas vezes os detalhes me passam batidos. No final das contas, é isso que faltou para mim, eu não dei total e irrestrita atenção ao disco. E esse é um álbum que requer sua completa atenção, sem nenhum tipo de distração. Digo isso pois não colocaria esse disco como meu favorito, mas sim Bryter Later. Esse é um próximo segundo colocado. Lindas composições e lindas melodias. Uma bela voz e belos acordes, tudo aqui é agradável de se ouvir e muito bem colocado. O produto final não é 100% minha pira, mas mesmo assim me proporcionou um ótimo aproveitamento. 4/5

playlist track: pink moon

I found this album on wikipedia a couple years ago and put it on my list to hit and never got around to it. I gotta say, I was expecting less than I got. Technically, strong melodies and cool guitar picking arrangements are all over it. Songs like Things Behind the Sun make me think this guy had bigger arrangements in mind, full band maybe. The songs are short but I think that benefits the strength of each melody on its own, making the repetitions a lot less grating than they may have been had the tunes gone on for 6 or 7 mins. I love this guys voice, a lot. Otherwise, there's a really powerful melancholic feeling that I think is amped up by the intimacy of this being a "singer and acoustic guitar recorded as close as possible" album. It's also amped up by a lot of the lyrics. Rhyming schemes are clever. Songs like Know feel like they may have been a little underbaked, but as cliche as it comes off I think I see it more as raw emotion being vague but recognizable. I get a feeling listening to that song and its words, even though I can't fully put a finger on what the feeling is. Imagery isn't strong in the traditional story telling sense. I think Bernie Taupin's stuff with Elton John is very vivid in a more literal way. On this album, I get more of a sense of color than I do of a physical happening as would be told in a story, and I don't mind that at all. I'm gonna hit this one again in the future because I feel like I smell a 5 with some further analysis. For now, I'll call it great at a high 4. Pleasant surprise for sure.

Fave song: place to be

Pretty enjoyable album, even though I generally zone out when listening to this kind of music. When I am looking back at my ratings in a couple of months time I probably don't know why, but I really like this record and give it a higher rating than I think I would have done with many similar records. 4/5

4.5/5

Ahhh - more Nick Drake....nice! Overall I prefer 5 Leaves Left and Bryter Later, but this is still wonderful music. 4

A seminal album. I loved the guitar, specially Drake’s playful yet sentimental plucking style. I like his voice and the lyrics are solid. Pink Moon and Parasite were faves of mine, although as a whole I don’t feel very connected to the songs. This is someone’s “soul mate” album, just not mine. It failed to awe me. Great to put on and romanticize a morning, though!

Sublime folky sounds

5: I will happily play this album anytime 4: I may occasionally play this album of my own free will 3: I will happily listen to this if someone plays it in the background 2: I will tolerate this if it is playing in the background 1: I will leave the room if someone plays this in the background Delightful...will need to return to this one.

Scarno, essenziale, intimissimo

A really lovely, intimate album - stripped back instrumental, no vocal effects, just guitar and voice. It's really easy to get lost in the calmness of the album. It's really lovely to listen to, but you have to be in a very specific mood for a lot of it to hit. The album itself is very short, 27 minutes, with one or two songs being around a minute long. These were nice tracks to break up the album, with one of them being purely instrumental.

This was a really good listen. Very reminiscent of early to mid 2000’s folk. I kept having to remind myself this album is from the 70’s. Great Sunday morning music

Lovely album, maybe not his finest but still a pleasant listen

Kan høyre meir på dette

Veldig fint, kommer tilbake til det. Litt ubestemmelig årsak, aknskje fordi Sondre likte det så godt.

This was a beautiful album. Simple but powerful.

Siento que tanto chris martin como jack johnson habran usado este album como la biblia, o cualquier melancolico nostalgico que le guste un poco el folk. Me deprimio un poco pero suena muy lindo 3,75

Great guitarist (Road/From the Morning my favorites). Vocals a little too delicate but one I could see myself coming back to

Beautiful album

This was a good album to listen to It has good acoustic guitar playing and emotional depth

Best Song: Things Behind The Sun. Perfect guitar tone, an incredibly evocative title, melancholy lyrics, and a powerfully soft vocal performance. Just great all around. Worst Song: Know. I really didn't like the guitar riff. Overall: There is a really beautiful, gentle sweetness here. A wonderfully quiet album. Perfect for rainy days, or dusks and dawns.

This is a classic and it is good but a little bit samey. Also anything under thirty minutes should not count as an album

i was fucking around on my acoustic a few days ago, and wrote the bones of a little song. hammering on and off the low e, a few more plaintive notes on the higher strings, a couple fingerpicked embellishments, but always a return to the warm, plumbing bass notes. it was gentle, it was propulsive, it was lovely, it was... Which Will. i'd just been fucking playing Nick Drake's Which Will, a perfect little song which has definitely been written and recorded before. but i think the fact that, for just a second, i thought i might've come up with the thing is a testament to the universality, the deep, old, essential nature of the best songs here. drake's guitar work isn't flashy or complicated, but it's nuanced and beautiful. every strum feels like he's digging a little deeper into the music, plumbing another depth. the vocals have a similar quality - hushed but purposeful, earthy, far older than any 26-year-old should sound. i've heard drake's lyrics described as cryptic or insular, and maybe i'll give you the latter, but lyrics like the aforementioned Which Will and Place To Be are incredibly plain, burnished and writerly but very clear. those two songs, in particular, are very genuinely perfect. dusty little jewels. as the rating reflects, i have to admit i'm not totally in love with every song on the record - even on something so short and spare, a few bits feel inessential. but i've always had a strange relationship with this one, where i know the first few songs hugely well but don't usually sit through the full thing, so with my increased familiarity, i could easily see this being a 5. for now, i'm off to learn his songs properly, and maybe stumble through one of my own, so communicative of the power of one voice and one guitar is this wonderful record

His third and final album of that brief, retrospectively lauded career. It is also his first to be entirely him and a guitar as opposed to the enhanced instrumentation of bryter later. There is a haunted, troubled character to the music, though hindsight is a remarkable thing. Who knows how the perception of mental health would've played out without the timeless story of Nick Drake - an important work.

Devo dire che l’ho ascoltato distrattamente, però è un album rilassante, dolce, e probabilmente i testi sono molto belli. Approvato

Probably the prime example of "less is more". Pink Moon is such a gorgeous, yet sparse record but there's so much to love about it.

Mama Album bisschen Sonntag morgen

My first introduction to Nick Drake was the old VW commercial. I did not pay much attention to it then, just figuring it was some current day indie singer-song writer which I hadn't heard of. Now that I've heard the album, see that it's really more or less a blueprint for the stuff you hear today. This sounds very modern, so to speak, it does not feel like 1972. I think that has to carry some weight. I'd have to be in the right mood to listen to this a lot, but I could definitely find myself throwing this on a queue. It's also a short album, a nice 28 minute morsel. Not sure I would want a lot more of it in a sitting, it's just the right size for what it is.

I am so glad I got to hear this. Didn’t know about this artist. Good stuff. There are so many contemporary singers that have his style. Sad we lost him so young.

really lovely!

nice, pleasant album. i think i've enjoyed this one the most of the nick drake albums on here. favorites: pink moon, place to be, horn

Worth a close re-listen

(6/7) sweet and intimate

Man, after the first few songs, I was almost ready to give this a five. But then I noticed how short and kind of fragmented a lot of the songs on this album are. Everything that is here is amazing, and there's definitely some songs that are the full package (Things Behind the Sun), but a lot of it is a minute thirty or two minute little ditties that kind of leave me wanting more. In a sense, it really reminds me a lot of that Bert Jansch album I got pretty early on in the project. Amazing music, just wish it were more fleshed out. Either way, still a fantastic album. And I'm really coming to appreciate Nick Drake's voice. I don't know how to really describe it, but it's the most "folk" sounding voice I've ever heard. Love how he sounds when he sustains a note.

Album 1067 of 1089 Pink Moon - Nick Drake (1972) Rating : 3.5 / 5 Although it was released about 25 years before yesterday’s Elliott Smith album, I couldn’t help but draw a comparison between the two. There’s a similar quiet intimacy in both. Mellow, reflective songs carried by soft vocals and understated, effective musicianship. This album is lean - 11 songs in just 27 minutes - and there’s not a wasted second. No filler. No grand gestures. Just smooth songwriting and a consistent mood from beginning to end. The arrangements are simple, but that simplicity works in its favor. It feels personal. Almost fragile at times. Drake doesn’t try to impress you with volume or flash. He just delivers the songs as they are. It’s a quick listen, but not a slight one. It leaves its mark quietly. A smooth, thoughtful album that does exactly what it sets out to do.

Exquisite late night vibes, subtly fantastic guitar work and an absolutely timeless voice. When I first heard this in college it was a revelation and while the vibes no long put me in as much of a trance as back then, i’m more appreciative of the craft and deft execution of Drake’s vision. It stands as an unimpeachable pillar of indie folk.

Muy buen album para escuchar un domingo a la mañana o cuando vas manejando. Dulzura hecha con guitarras acusticas

7/10

Beauty in simplicty

very nice, i liked it

Really pretty and fun to come back to

Nice guitar and nice songs

I like it! Is the 26 club better than the 27 club?

Овен меланхолично и на одной песне даже заплакал, но альбом очень атмосферный сам по себе

NIck was a wonderful voice. His best know work Enjoy!

Singer songwriter that keeps each song fresh. Gonna revisit sometime.

Sublime. Haven't listened to this record in ages but it still sounds great. A real watershed in terms of what a folk music album can accomplish when done right. 4.5.

Hauntingly beautifil so sad that Nick didnt live to experience the recognition he has today

Great album to listen to in the evening

Este disco lo escuche varias veces en el pasado y siempre me pareció un poco aburrido, mas allá de entender lo pionero que fue, y la influencia que tuvo. Hoy, en esta nueva reescucha lo puedo evaluar de otra manera. Quizá antes no estaba en el mood adecuado para apreciarlo.

I gotta say, when I saw this was an English singer-songwriter folk album, I wasn't too excited to listen to it, but it turned out to be really enjoyable! Nicely recorded, good guitar playing, and generally just very good. I'm going to be coming back to this one a lot, I think.

Good on a rainy November day.

Particularly liked Parasite. Good road tripping music. Nick Drake seems romantically depressed. Real.

Bis jetzt kannte ich nur 5 Leaves Left, ich wusste nicht dass er noch 2 Alben aufgenommen hatte. Schöne Entdeckung.

Acoustic guitar, nice stuff. Listened while in the airport taking notes for a bit. Should listen again...

217/1089 a nice and chill folky album. i quite enjoyed this one. didn’t necessarily blow me away but it could grownon my more with some more listens. I quite liked the short songs format for this genre, it made it flow very smoothly faves: Road, From the Morning, Place To Be, Which Will 70/100

Cutesy lil sad folk album, right up my alley

It wasn’t as varied as the previous album of his that we had, but I liked the more minimalist arrangements. Really lets his voice and the guitar shine. Fav song: Place to Be Least fav: Know

Decent vocals and quite calming overall which is nice. Guitar is alright too. The cover is not quite my thing but I appreciate the artwork. Quite samey. Specific rating - 4.1 Fav song - things behind the sun Least fav - road

This was the first album I ever rated when I first attempted this list, I gave it four stars, my favourite song was Parasite. Now when I listen to it I'm bought back to walking home in the dark on a clear night having just submitted a draft of my dissertation letting this beautiful voice calm me down. Favourite: Parasite Least: Road

Nice background

I played this more than a few time in the car but I don’t think I got the whole sense of the album. I think I need to sit and take in the lyrics. Great to listen to though, such a mellow sound.

Oh, this one was nice. Acoustic guitar and singing. Very short album, but really nice. Very chill. I don't hear lyrics very well when I listen to music, so I'm usually here for the vibes alone. From reading others' reviews, it sounds like the lyrics are profound. I was always the one who had to read the inserts of all my albums as a young person, and I'm still like that today, and I've always been a little out of the loop when it comes to poetry analysis, sadly, so I'll just have to take other people's words for it. The vibes are top-notch, and it is a shame he left the world at such a young age. I would have loved to hear his music as he aged. 4/5 stars.

This was surprisingly beautiful. At first I thought I was going to be underwhelmed, but there might still exist a small place for mellow vocal/acoustic guitar in my heart.

3.5 (28:22, 11 tracks, 3rd and final album, 1972) folk 2nd Album I've got (Five Leaves Left (1969)) by English musician Nick Drake which seems excessive especially since it's the album released in North America. However I did, like Five Leaves Left, come to like this short album. In 28 minutes he packs in 11 full songs (none feel short) that are sad and beautiful. I don't see me revisiting this album as I don't need depression in my life (I believe I said in my previous review this is the soundtrack to your long one way walk into the woods with a gun.) It is a great album if you just want to walk around on a fall or winter day and feel moody (don't bring a gun) by yourself. Pink Moon differs from Drake's previous albums it's just Drake on vocals and acoustic guitar. Drake had no commercial success in his lifetime (partially because he didn't want to perform live) however; obviously it has since garnered significant critical acclaim. Beautiful and melancholic. Released two years before his death (1974), at 26. Cover - Keith Morris was commissioned to photograph Drake for the cover of Pink Moon. However, the photos were not used as Drake's rapidly deteriorating appearance, hunched figure and blank expression were not considered good selling points. "I remember going to talk to [Nick], and he just sat there, hunched up, and even though he didn't speak, I knew the album was called Pink Moon, and I can't remember how he conveyed it, whether he wrote it down ... he wanted a pink moon. He couldn't tell me what he wanted, but I had 'pink moon' to go on." In Melody Maker, Mark Plummer, "His music is so personal and shyly presented both lyrically and in his confined guitar and piano playing that neither does nor doesn't come over ... The more you listen to Drake though, the more compelling his music becomes – but all the time it hides from you. On 'Things Behind the Sun', he sings to me, embarrassed and shy." Pink Moon was voted number 131 in the third edition of Colin Larkin's All Time Top 1000 Albums (2000).[36] The album was ranked number in 2020 was revised to number 201 Rolling Stones. All songs written and composed by Nick Drake - all sounds played acoustically by Nick Drake 1. "Pink Moon" 2:06 2. "Place to Be" 2:43 3. "Road" 2:02 4. "Which Will" 2:58 5. "Horn" 1:23 6. "Things Behind the Sun" 3:57 7. "Know" 2:26 8. "Parasite" 3:36 9. "Free Ride" 3:06 10. "Harvest Breed" 1:37 11. "From the Morning" 2:30 Total length: 28:22

Ha excepção da primeira música não conhecia. Gostei bastante do início do álbum e depois foi esmorecendo o entusiamo. Ainda assim boa música para o serão

As others have written in the reviews below, an album ahead of its time. An intriguing release—I'll probably return to it again.

V: I've owned this album for a while. Such a great Acoustic and a voice record. When I need to chill this is one I put on.

Abstract cover, super chill jams, I don't know why but it really did resonate with me; definitely does not sound like it's from 1972.

Incredibly confusing half hour because I forgot Nick Drake and nick cave are different people for the entire run of this album. This is a sleeper for me on just listening to it while doing work. Deep diving into the lyrics I get why this resonates with so many people and people do be loving some acoustic guitar and depressed man singing but I’ve never been one for the genre. I think my enjoyment of putting this on and running it as a listening experience is a 3 but I can definitely give the artistic score of this a 4.

Pretty short, pinks moons the only song i really hung onto

Acoustic folk rock. Well executed. Favorite track: Pink Moon other picks: Things behind the sun, parasite

I need to listen to this album more frequently. Very minimalist, super chill and really enjoyable.

Huh, I didn’t expect an album from this list with a cover like that to be anything but a weird, noisy, monstrosity, but it turns out this was a nice little indie album (if that was even a genre in the 70’s).

Great listening for an overcast 20 degree (F) morning....also not mad at the run time!

Some nice soft guitar and vocals. Really nice background music. I could see listening to this record on a nice sunday morning enjoying coffee. Very chill vibes.

Not sure we need multiple Nick Drake albums on here but it’s solid. Definitely darker than the other but as original as can be considering it’s just him and an acoustic.

4.7 if i could

this is so lovely

This is very close to being a 5 for me. Need a few more listens though. Right now its a solid 4.5

Un disco austero, con buenas canciones. La duración es muy corta 28 minutos , lo que hace que se puede escuchar entero. Si no, resultaría monótono. Había escuchado los otros dos Lps de Nick Drake más coloristas.
