Stumbled on to this on Youtube, extremely well done and a compelling view. Actually never been a big fan of Nick's but he was an extraordinary guitarist. After watching I promptly ordered an anthology of his stuff on Amazon (cheap, too!).

I'll need to watch this. Thanks for the post.

Saw this film on tv when it was aired the first time. When you're interested: it was released on DVD as part of the re-release of Fruit Tree in 2007.

ah, thanks!
Although not as tender as this documentary, the DVD "Nick Drake - Under Review" (2007) is also well worth searching for.

Thanks for sharing. Man, what a loss
Tirill covered Nick Drake's Clothes Of Sand for her new album Said The Sun To The Moon:
The Endless Coloured Ways: The Songs Of Nick Drake is a recently released double-CD or -LP containing 24 covers of songs, originally written and sung by Nick Drake.
Pretty impressive list of musicians! Favorites are the renditions of David Gray, John Parish & Aldous Harding, Craig Armstrong, Famous Blue Cable feat. Feist (with Blake Mills, Matt Chamerlain and Tony Berg) and John Grant.
There's also a new biography on Nick Drake: Nick Drake: The Life by Ricard Morton Jack.
Here's John Grant doing his take on Day Is Done:
