Deluxe Edition
Gatefold sleeve
Original shop poster
Live Mini-Poster (full color both sides)
Reprint of Nick's handwritten set list
This first studio album from Nick Drake, which has garnered posthumous praise and remarkable all-time greatest album ratings, is an exact replica of the original 1969 release: It is pressed on heavyweight audiophile vinyl and remastered from near-original master tapes by the album's original engineer, John Wood. Although the original tapes were unusable, John Wood had made a safety copy of the album in 1969 and those reels were used for this latest session.
The deluxe release comes in a box containing the original shop poster, a smaller "live" poster and a reprint of Nick's handwritten set list used for his live appearances, together with reproductions of the master tape and box lids. The disc is housed is a single-pocket, textured sleeve just as the original release would have been.
