Pink Moon

Released 1972Folk & Singer-Songwriter
Deep cut

Recorded in two nights with just voice and guitar, it is spare, intimate and quietly devastating. Overlooked in his lifetime and now treasured. Hushed perfection. Released in 1972, it's one of Nick Drake's later high points.

On vinyl: Vintage copies and modern reissues both circulate — worth comparing condition and remaster notes before you buy.
