The first-ever authorised book on Nick Drake is set to be released later this year to mark the 40th anniversary of the late singer-songwriter’s passing.
Nick Drake: Remembered For A While will be published later this year, compiled by the musician’s sister Gabrielle Drake and the Nick Drake Estate. It will tell the story of Drake’s life and feature handwritten lyrics, plus rare documents.
The deluxe boxset edition will also include a 10 inch vinyl of Drake’s John Peel session.
