民谣天才Nick Drake是一生不得志，死后才风光的典型，几乎所有人都用“孤独”来形容他的音乐，他的演唱总让人有种遥远疏离的感觉，彷佛他只是在唱给自己听，而听众是刚巧经过而已。尽管风格如此孤独，但追求完美的他总是要把歌曲加上精心编排后才发表，而不是许多民谣歌手那样，一把木吉他走天下。尽管在乐评人中一直都有很好的评价，但对于追求简单的听众来说，他的音乐过于丰富，而对于追求新奇的听众来说，他的音乐过于单纯，在70年代初，他的音乐就是这样两头不讨好，所以市场反响总是平平。Nick Drake发现自己不论如何努力总是不能得到大众认同，心情抑郁，并在26岁时英年早逝。讽刺的是，他死后，似乎忽然就变成巨星了。无数后来的民谣艺人都说，Nick Drake是影响他们最深的前辈。 这是Nick的第二张专辑，孤独而精美，爵士元素的加入，为歌曲又添上了几分迷离的色彩。我们现在来听，会和Nick一样不敢相信它竟然会不流行，然而事实就是如此，让人叹息。
