@@carlfilpo7571 it happens over 1 weekend in a village in Warwickshire called Tanworth in Arden. Quite a few people attend.. On the Saturday muscicans get up and perform. Doesn't necessarily have to be Nick Drake songs..
just fantastic, this just brings back memory's of driving about brittany in an old peugeot in the rain whilst my dad listened the nick drake in the cassette player
This takes me back to sailing to Catalina Island, and around the Los Angeles harbor. I had a kicking stereo and only a couple of CD's. Nick Drake way to blue and the Byrds Greatest hits. Magical how a smell or a sound can bring back all the sensations. Thank you.
This is incredible .. anyone who loves Nick's music knows there is no existing footage of him playing so this is amazing just to see the guitar picking in RUclips reality. You are a great player man.
I agree. For me, Josh Turner's voice has this really pure quality that's more reminiscent of Paul Simon. He does a great job with this song, but where he really shines though is with the hyper attention to Nick Drake's guitar playing style and technique. In that? This is like a 600 foot homerun. Very beautiful.
Towering achievement. That one gave me goosebumps, Josh. Of all your great covers through the years, this one's right up there with the very best. You nailed, 100%. Six stars out of five. I lament that I have but one "like" to give.
You sir, are a gentleman and a scholar. Have my upvote! In all seriousness, I think that praise should be given in an earnest form. I think that this rendition is heart-wrenching. Josh captured the anguish of life that Nick wanted to portray. That being said, I still prefer the frailty of Nick's original recording (not to mention his voice), but this cover really is stunning nonetheless.
That's what I always think when I come back to a really great tune, go to "like" it, and find that I already did. And I also already commented. So I do the next best thing (as far as the algorithm is concerned) and like comments, or reply to them.
I am 59 years old and I only recently discovered Nick Drake (shame on me, I know) Man, this is awesome! I play a little bit guitar so I know how difficult this is. Not only your playing is outstanding, but also the singing is flawless. Your performance gives me goosebumbs and brings tears to my eyes. You have an amazing talent. Thanks for sharing this with the world!
Astounding. The difference between Nick's guitar sound and your slightly brighter one is equivalent to difference between your vocal and his softer one. It's truly wonderful to witness Drake's music live and breath like this.
Josh, you probably won't see this but I just wanted to say, a BIG thank you. I have been a Nick Drake fan for many years now, and to hear this blew my mind! How you have learned the style of Nick, and play just like he would is amazing to me. (Also what an amazing voice too) I hope you go far, you deserve it!
Outstanding. Beautiful performance, Josh. Your singing made me reconsider the lyrics to Three Hours, having listened to Nick sing it a million times; it's like listening for the first time. You've done Nick fans a huge service and brought us a gift. Well done!
Dude...Brilliant! You took a very complex tune and just nailed it. Your finger picking is superb. I've been playing 35 years and I couldn't play it 25% as good. Nick Drake would be proud. You're basically a genius level player. I'm beyond impressed. Keep it up...👍
Ya. You nailed it. Genius level player. He nailed Leo Kotke shortly after he started to play guitar. I really couldn't believe anyone could have that kind of instant dexterity. In this clip Josh doesn't even look at guitar. Totally by feel as if he was Doc Watson. He's fingerpicking classical style too.
This is incredible 👏 since theres no Nick Drake footage anywhere, uve brought him and his music to life here for us fans here mate. Wow, magical. Thank you
Incredible cover. I didn't think I could appreciate the genius of Nick Drake any more than I already do, but seeing his guitar work brought to life like this.........blows my mind.
After your video about Nick Drakes tone and guitar I wondered down the rabbit hole of his albums. I had heard some of his songs before and wondered why and how they were so hauntingly beautiful but never explored the back story. Feeling inspired I read everything I could find and listened to all 3 albums on repeat for 2 weeks. I am so sad to find that there are no video records of his performances or studio time, but this video comes close at least from a musicality perspective. I think he had a deeply troubled head and heavy heart, from the tone of his songs/guitar to his own voice spoken on intermittent tracks. Anyway, thank you for introducing me to this. I have been playing with capoed DADGAD tuning lately and it is so easy to get obsessed with how beautiful and easy great chords can be produced.
timjr2500 a documentary about Nick was made several years ago.. A Skin Too Few.. you may be able to find an upload here on YT.. but I'm sure you can Google it.. it's worth watching.
Google "roio nick drake" and check out the first result, the Bigozine one. I especially recommend his Hazey Jane 1 solo take, his Guitar Instrumental No. 1, the Sketch V - Guitar, and that Place To Be take. Oh gods. Oh lords.
Wow. Of all the beautiful and impressive things you have posted to RUclips, this may be the very best. You never need to worry; there will always be an audience for music this good.
i often find few sing Nick's songs in a way I like. Your interpretation and vocal style I quite like. The guitar playing is impeccable, and wonderful to see. We often wish we could see Nick playing on film, but this is as close to what it might have looked like as possible. Well done.
Thank you Josh Turner for bringing attention to Nick Drake's music, you are the first result from a "Nick Drake Covers" search on youtube! I had a dream once, I was in a large white interior museum like place, with lots of normal people, and on the PA was NIck Drakes music playing! Felt so good that a large number of people were grooving to Nick Drake's music. Perhaps one day, more people will listen to Nick's music and it will be more mainstream!
I'm not even a minute in and it's awesome. You've got a terrific voice, that is critical. (I mean besides the playing obv.) No one will ever sound like Nick, but a killer performance can happen all the same. This is absolutely stellar.
@@Geto456 Uhhhhh, no? Nick’s recording was half improvised. Improvised. And he never made a mistake. This guy, while really good, is merely copying someone else.
Wow! First heard this on my brother's vinyl record in1976 I reckon. I loved the whole album but this song always mesmerised me the most, and remains my favourite song. I thought it would be impossible to cover well but you have done it magnificently. I love the way you nailed the picking in the slow tempo part. To m that bit evokes rain being blown upwards and I thought it would be impossible to replicate until now. Great vocal too!
Ah yes, the times when Josh plays Nick Drake. I like seeing how attuned you are to his phrasing and picking, I see how it permeates the way you play other songs too...very interesting. Nick was a big influence on the way I play guitar too
I was enjoying the great guitar playing...and then your voice came in. Magical. I predict you will be as big an influence on the next generation as Nick Drake was/is to you.
Beautifully done. What you should know is that I was vaguely aware of Nick Drake's music but by doing this video, and doing such a perfectly nuanced performance you've re-awakened my interest in Nick Drake's music. And after all isn't that why you worked so hard to honor his music, so it would be remembered and appreciated.
I've been trying to get that song down for over 30 years and you just made me give up hope of ever doing it as well as you. Congrats to you, there is no substitute for talent.
Wow, Nick Drake was a genius, but everything Josh does convinces me is even more gifted. I’ve written (bad) songs, played guitar and sung since 1978, and once thought I was pretty decent but as so many others have expressed on his videos, I feel I’m no longer qualified to play anymore and should just watch him and Carson (go Tarheels) instead. Please keep them coming; you guys are amazing and make an old, retired disabled veteran smile every time!!
Josh, thank you again! What a masterpiece! I knew nothing about Nick Drake and because of you I learned about the great music. I'd love to see you as a music teacher one day...
You gave a link to Tobias Wilden’s channel ... you’re a talented young man with zero ego and instead, happy to uplift others who cover Nick Drake so well. You constantly amaze me, Josh.
Hey Josh, I followed you for some time now, but never commented. In search for inspiration I stumbled upon your channel and you cannot stop to impress and inspire me with your great guitar work. Nick Drake is one of my most favourite musicians and are so damn close to his tone and you just mastered this piece of art that this song is. I'm so glad that Nick get's the attention and appreciation that he would have deserved during his way too short lifetime. And I don't exaggerate by saying that you are one of the most talented musicians on youtube. There are only a few people who can transfer the vibe and feeling of a song. You are one of those. When I need new inspirations for my guitar playing I just need to open your channel and regard one of your videos. There is only one suggestion I have. Please put the guitar tunings of the songs you play into the info under your video. I would appreciate it a lot!! Best Regards, Tobi
I cannot express how much this means to me. Wonderful. When this appeared in my Nick Drake search I worried that it would fall short... I was wrong. Well done and thank you.
Brutally brilliant. I follow you since your astonishing sultans of swing cover and you haven't done nothing but grow as a musician . Thank you master. From Spain❤
That was seriously brilliant. I’ve listened to the original song many many times and with my eyes closed I would think you were Nick. Beautiful job with the singing as well.
Dear Mr Turner, thank you for this beautiful cover and for not trying to be cute with the vocal phrasing and horribly mucking it up (as too many Nick Drake performers seem to do).
Let's get Josh to 1M subs! I had the pleasure of meeting him and his lady in a bar in Belfast, N. Ireland. I was standing outside having a smoke when he was walking by and asked me did I know any good bars to have a drink in. I said this one is good, (XXX Liquor). Invited them in and bought them a round. I couldn't believe it. I only realised who he was on the way back in haha. Not really the best bar but I was drunk and enjoying myself. He would have loved Maddens on a Monday night. Always love coming back to this rendition of this great song. I've never seen anyone else play Drake with such skill and nuance. Keep up the great Josh. would be great to see you and the guys gig live.
When i first heard this by Josh, I cried. It's obvious that he appreciates and respects Nicks music very much .Josh, your playing says it all. Thank-you.
Superb rendition of this iconic song. You even managed to resolve the timing issues which even Nick Drake had problems with on some recordings. Simply brilliant. Thanks.
This captures the very essence of Nick Drake, the picking, the vocals, even the room lighting. You are a huge talent Josh; thank you for a piece of real music mastery.
@@belascialoja4812 d'addario nickel bronze strings. He uses them for this tone. You get them and don't change for months. He explains it in his "Nick Drake's tone" video. Probably martin monels would work too.
I'm half analyzing what I'm hearing, enjoying the music, and considering the maturity of this content. Its all over the top GREAT! Love it. Natural talent and your compass is pointed to success. Great job!
![Guitar Teacher REACTS: Tommy Emmanuel "Classical Gas" [Mason Williams]](/img/1.gif)
I’ve never heard anyone do a Nick Drake song so well (other than Nick Drake)!
Try plectrum 32 on you tube he does some really nice versions of nicks songs
There's a guy named Tobias on RUclips who did a pretty good job of covering some Nick Drake's songs.
Maaaaaadison Cunningham! Oh my Goodness.
I agree
Agreed, that was absolutely fucking savage, pardon my french. Three Hours is the ultimate performance.
There's a reason I revisit this video three to four times a month (sometimes more) since 2017.
beautiful, have you ever considered playing at the Nick Drake gathering which happens each year in Tamworth In Arden? People who actually knew Nick are there :) You would blow everyone away
Is that the Lunar festival or something else?
@@mikeneylon2855 Ah ok, somehow I've missed that's a thing. Cheers for the info, will look in to it.
@@mikeneylon2855 how many people are usually there? Sounds like a concert happens??
@@carlfilpo7571 it happens over 1 weekend in a village in Warwickshire called Tanworth in Arden. Quite a few people attend.. On the Saturday muscicans get up and perform. Doesn't necessarily have to be Nick Drake songs..
I'm hoping to attend this event this year.
More than a cover… that was a possession 🤘🏻
just fantastic, this just brings back memory's of driving about brittany in an old peugeot in the rain whilst my dad listened the nick drake in the cassette player
Jacob Ward You have a cool dad my friend.
This takes me back to sailing to Catalina Island, and around the Los Angeles harbor. I had a kicking stereo and only a couple of CD's. Nick Drake way to blue and the Byrds Greatest hits. Magical how a smell or a sound can bring back all the sensations. Thank you.
what memories to cherish
Rip Nick brother you and your music will always be remembered from generation to generation
This is incredible .. anyone who loves Nick's music knows there is no existing footage of him playing so this is amazing just to see the guitar picking in RUclips reality. You are a great player man.
That is so true, it's amazing, like a reincarnation

He does a great job with this song, but where he really shines though is with the hyper attention to Nick Drake's guitar playing style and technique. In that? This is like a 600 foot homerun.

One of life's great tragedies no live footage of Nick, josh nailed this one so good!
Unbelievably excellent. WOW!

Just made me listen to Nicks original... Josh you nailed this in every way. Fantastic.
You sir, are a gentleman and a scholar. Have my upvote!
In all seriousness, I think that praise should be given in an earnest form. I think that this rendition is heart-wrenching. Josh captured the anguish of life that Nick wanted to portray. That being said, I still prefer the frailty of Nick's original recording (not to mention his voice), but this cover really is stunning nonetheless.

Nick Drake has such a distinctive tone, you can recognize his songs sung by anyone.
the guitar is spot-on tone and 99% played. Voice is as close as someone not-Nick Drake should ever try to sound like him. Great work.
Started getting into Nick Drake because of you. You've done Nick's music, and Nick himself, justice. Well done.
Nick is smiling. Your tribute is perfect.
It takes a lot to play with such skill while making the skill totally not the focus. Wonderful.
Very acute comment!
Literally hypnotizing
Insane. One of the best covers I've ever heard.
You have a remarkable ability to channel an artist’s inflection and phrasing, while maintaining your unique sound. Always great.
Man, you are incredible! What a rendition. Guitar skills, voice, ... wow! I keep coming back to your Nick Drake covers over and over.
Astounding. The difference between Nick's guitar sound and your slightly brighter one is equivalent to difference between your vocal and his softer one. It's truly wonderful to witness Drake's music live and breath like this.
The finger-picking, vocals, musicianship .....I hated to see it end. As others have said, definitely one of your best Josh.
One of the most haunting songs of all time and you completely nailed it. Well done, sir!
Josh, you probably won't see this but I just wanted to say, a BIG thank you.
I have been a Nick Drake fan for many years now, and to hear this blew my mind!

amazing job josh.
Every time you put out a new video I'm amazed man. Great work!
God damn, Josh. I was going to do some homework, but then you uploaded. You can’t do this to me, man.
I'm supposed to review for my midterms this Tuesday but THIS is much more important. #priorities
Does homework only take 5 minutes and 45 seconds?
A delight. If anyone who hears this didnt know nick drake before you are on the way now!

I found out today that my uncle passed away yesterday from cancer. The music heals my soul for a small while. Thank you
I’ve been a drake fan since the late 80s.. this is one of the best renditions I’ve heard. Top job.
A masterpiece.
Sung and played here by a future legend I'm sure.
Unfortunately, being very good, having more knowledge, or being a super-proficient artist is quite useless today.
@@krollpeter Most of the time that's true. But not always fortunately. Greetings Robby
@@robbyt.5258 To be honest I like his rendition better than Nick Drakes. Top notch guitar and emotive vocals.
Absolutely unreal playing, brother. Lord. Well done.

I missed a call from my mother on purpose because I didn't want to skip this masterpiece. Shows how good this is.
To see Nick's songs played is a real treat. I am astounded by your playing
