i like it, Alan, but i sometimes feel that Jack's music too often takes refuge in generic Black Sabbath-isms, however brief they might be. Still, I DO like it!  |

Nick Drake : The Making of Five Leaves Left (Island 4LP, 2025).
Only the second time i've played this right through, and i know now it was a sound investment.
The album of course i'm familiar with - if you listen to an LP at intervals for 50 years that's how if goes. But what this box gives us is a sense of Nick the artist at his best, and a full, complex person. Scant though they are, there are moments when he speaks in the studio, even laughs occasionally, though not without reserve.
It sounds cliched i know but his really is a tale of the tragic decline and loss . We must be grateful for what he left for us

Last year's album of the year was bloody obvious to me from the very first listen (Cardiacs - LSD).
This year's? The same. If it ain't this I'll eat my flat cap....
Just marvellous....
