Elton John Plays Nick Drake


Back in June 1970 Joe Boyd was wondering how to turn Nick Drake into a marketable star. As a taster to see if other artists might record some of Nick's songs, he got Elton John into the studio at Sound Techniques in Chelsea to record a variety of his whitchseason stable artists' songs, including a few from Nick Drake, all from his first album, 1969's Five Leaves Left.
Three tracks:
Day Is Done
Way To Blue
Time Has Told Me

eXTReMe Tracker
