Extremely Limited Edition Box Set of Nick Drake's three Studio Albums! Only 2000 copies available worldwide!
This lavishly packaged box set Fruit Tree includes classic albums Five Leaves Left, Bryter Layter, Pink Moon as well as a 50-minute documentary DVD "A Skin Too Few" and new liner notes.
This box set includes the three albums left for us by the late Nick Drake; Five Leaves Left, Bryter Layter, and Pink Moon. The box, Fruit Tree, has been out of print for seven years but thanks to Universal/Fontana and Island Records, fans who missed out the first time around get another chance to acquire the set for themselves. However, the pressing is limited to 2000 copies, so don't wait too late; you might miss out again!
This updated box set includes, on DVD for the first time, the Nick Drake
biographical film "A Skin Too Few" and a new 108 page book featuring song
analysis by Joe Boyd, John Wood, Robert Kirby and Robin Frederick.
The improved reissue gives fans old and new the opportunity to buy Nick's three
studio albums in one set at a decent price. The updated box set will be a
welcome addition for collectors who have hunted for expensive versions
circulating in poor to mint condition.
It's impossible to keep count of the contemporary artists who cite Drake as an
inspiration, but a cursory round-up includes R.E.M., Snow Patrol, Norah Jones,
Portishead, Coldplay, David Gray, Beth Orton. Actors Brad Pitt, Heath Ledger,
Bill Paxton and Zach Braff all site Drake's albums as among their favorites.
Along with household names of his creative lifetime - The Stones, The Beatles,
Marley, Hendrix - his albums have become an unofficial set text for anyone
passionate about music.
