Nick Drake - Day Is Done Home recordings & studio out-takes 1967-74

think a few of the songs are the same version as on the new cd but it flows a lot better.

right now Elton John is covering Nick's songs and making them sound kinda jolly

why the fuck didn't the estate just do an offical highest possible quality release of this album?

IIRC because the song versions featured on this release were all hometaped by nick in his bedroom back in the day, and when they found and rescued these recordings for relase, the original tapes had already (and inevitably) started to decay rather badly... for years and years... so we're lucky to hear these sounds at all...

yes, the sound is extremely poor and in some instances even distorted by tape warbles/rot, but you can still hear under all that what made him so special
