Yes.
There was a great piece on Nick Drake in Mojo in the February issue (or it may 
have been March issue - I remember reading it on the aeroplane to the West 
Indies, where we were studying the evolution of tree lizards whilst on a field trip - 
interesting eh!!)
I agree that Nick Drake is more mournful (than bleak!!).
The comparison I would make is that both have delightful tunes, interesting lyrics - 
which connect with the listener - and make you wish to have heard them on the 
beach at Guirdil bothy on the deserted Isle of Rum!!
Sorry I cannot make it sound more poetic, but I am an ecologist!!
Philip
