A Skin Too Few is a better account of Nicks life and this one seems thrown together and amateurish at times! But it also has far more personal stories about Nick from people who knew him. I think it's worth knowing that Nick could be quite cold and precious a lot of the time even though he did have love and support from his family and lots of friends who really admired him.
He is a musical genuis and earth angel , thats all. Thank you Nick for your beauty . A very rare type of human. If the world was full of more people like Nick it would be a much much better place.❤
I have most of Nick's recorded material. It is very gratifying to finally get some more information. He seems to have been very enigmatic, to say the least.
This was great to find, another doc besides the very fine, "A Skin Too Few". Too bad no Part 4. It's all good, friends, acquaintances, all sharing about him, and great too, his sister. She was only very brief but great, his girlfriend's comments as she would know him very well. She was very intelligent and captured much with her very few words. I wish she would have spoken more. All were very observant and cogent in their anecdotes and insights. Well put together, and I'm sure on a low budget. Nice dubbing in his music with images, great! Thanks for all the hard work creating this and posting it!
Worth watching! thanks for posting it..by the way those people in the documentary who didnt know who Nick Drake was are very unlucky poeple as never listened magic of the melody. cheers from Mongolia!
What gets missed is that the Glitter people and the Zepplin people were about to turn it all into a heavy metal toxic-rama. Drake's music, like Drake, was as fragile as filagree-and it got blown away in a welter of pr, and bullshit Drake provides the soundtrack as the old England gets deep sixed, axed, twisted into schlock.

totally saw that one too.
The footage of the fans is from the 12 bar club London.
Thats where i had my first gig and have played there quite a few times since.
I don't know why ppl gave you thumbs down. "A skin too few" is infinitely better than this one.
Thanks for all 4 parts of this docu.
nick is one of the greatest artists ever =D
