Nick Drake — Pink Moon

Pink Moon

Nick Drake
Pop 1972

Pink Moon is the third and final studio album by the English musician Nick Drake, released in the UK by Island Records on 25 February 1972. It was the only one of Drake's studio albums to be released in North America during his lifetime. Pink Moon differs from Drake's previous albums in that it was recorded without a backing band, featuring just Drake on vocals and acoustic guitar, the only other instrumentation being a single piano melody overdubbed onto the title track.

“Pink Moon by Nick Drake. What a great record. It's amazing that he went so kind of under the radar for so long, y'know until that Volkswagen commercial, then everybody was like, 'oh my god, who is this guy?'”

“I think that Pink Moon is one of those records that I enjoy in its entirety, completely. All the songs are incredible to me.”

“This album changed a lot of things for me. I do a lot of acoustic finger style stuff and I used to be in this band that really drew heavily from this record. So yeah, the album art is amazing, every track on this is amazing and if I could rip off of Nick Drake for the rest of my life I would not be mad at that.”
