Hello Sinister,
I really do not have much to say about B&S other than
i finally saw a video of them on M2(yeah).  It wasn't
a big deal since i have seen the videos.  
Ok it is pretty hard to play like nick drake right on,
but it is not impossible to sound like him.  The
secret is odd ball tunings and not moving your hands
around the neck alot.  I know it may seem an odd way
of doing things, but the simplicity, along with the
great tunings make for great pop music.  So the secret
to those sad jazz chords is being a bit more
experimental with your tunings, and finding a perfect
set of chords in one area of the neck.  This also
makes for any good indie-pop.  Oh well.

Chris P.
