Such intense dedication and care went into this release that it is no wonder it is one of the most unified and powerful tribute cd ever released. The long awaited compilation tribute to the timeless music of Nick Drake . Elsie and Jack have put together another stunningly gorgeous effort both in packaging and musical wonder that will set your heart aflutter. Although the artists contributing to this release are quite varied in their musical endeavors usually, here they all come together and make sense cohesively. Some are even spooky in the way they so easily conjure up the ghost of Nick Drake himself.
Packaging is stunningly gorgeous with printing on photo-quality massively thick paper.
Drake s intentions are very much preserved in Sculpting from Drake , an artistic interpretation of the morose mystique and drama of the cult artist. This disc is first in the aptly titled Sculpting From Drake series of tribute compilations celebrating the work of Nick Drake. Archer Prewitt and Flashpapr do Drake 's deeply poetic lyrics justice, armed with their acoustic guitars and a candid style that I imagine is quite faithful to the original tunes. The diverse collection of tracks that Elsie and Jack set out to assemble was definitely realized. A strong note to cap off an even stronger disc.
