Did anyone else hear the Nick Drake documentary on Radio 2 on Saturday? I haven't heard much by him before (one song) and was struck by how similar his voice is to Stuart Murdoch's. Apart from that, I didn't think they're music was that similar - ND's seems more wistful and abstract, while SM's is more down to earth, albeit quite poetic, and tends to be a bit more pop-like (does that make sense). Anyway, it was a good documentary and they played some really nice songs, especially River Man, which made me (as the person they interviewed afterwards suggested) stop what I was doing, as everything seemed somehow suspended in time. I'm very tempted to buy an album by him now...
