The first of these is so moving that I’m almost afraid to listen to the others. But I will, later today.
She was a wonderful songwriter as well as a wonderful singer. I remember reading the article about her in “The Guardian” several months ago. Since I never heard Nick Drake (or even heard of him), I tend to think of him as Molly Drake’s son.
