Music reviews of Time of No Reply
Music Review: A must have for Nick Drake fans...
Rating: 5 Stars
This a great collection to have for Nick Drake completists. I will have to say that I agree with the other reviewer who said that this is not a great starting point for those unfamiliar with his work, but for fans of his other work this is essential. Previously unissued studio outtakes like "Joey" and "Clothes of Sand" are unearthed treasures. "Clothes of Sand" is also one of my favorite of Nick Drake's songs; it's haunting lyrics make it sound like an outtake from the "Pink Moon" sessions, although it wasn't. "Joey" contains a slight guitar mistake towards the end (which is why it wasn't released), but overall it too is a great song with a haunting melody. Also noteworthy are the home recordings Nick recorded in 1969 at his parent's home in Tanworth in Arden. "Fly", "Been Smoking Too Long", and "Strange Meeting II" are included from Nick's home tapes. Although they are obviously not of the sound quality of studio recordings, the performances are great. The lyrics to "Been Smoking Too Long" were written by a friend of Nick's, and even though he didn't write them himself it's interesting to hear him sing about drug use. Enough is known about Nick Drake to confirm that he experimented with drugs, but no one really knows how much of a factor drugs were in his increasing depression and withdrawal from others in the last few years of his life. "Strange Meeting II" is not available on other CD's and is a really good song. Another rarity is the lilting "Mayfair" (a studio track), which Nick apparently wrote for his mother Molly. This lighthearted song is really an oddity, as is Nick mumbling a joke about the instrumental break and giggling during the song. The last four songs Nick recorded are the last four songs on this disc, and offer a glimpse into his fragile mental state. Nick openly sings about his depression in "Black Eyed Dog", one of his most haunting songs. His voice doesn't sound as strong on these songs, and I read that in the studio he was unable to play guitar and sing at the same time as he always had in the past and had to record the guitar and vocals separately. Nonetheless, each song is really strong and its a shame that he died before recording the rest of what would have been his fourth album. Overall, this is a really good collection and if you are a fan of Nick Drake it is one you should own.
