Re: Nick Drake
Thought some of you might like to see a few of the pictures I took when I visited Nick Drake's grave a while back.
It was a very emotional day out for me. Pam was very understanding and went and sat in the local pub while I paid my (huge) respects.
The Tree is an English Oak tree under which Nick was buried. I took a leaf and have it in a frame on my desk. I feel somehow that a bit of Nick's spirit is with me whenever I look at it.
The Grave stone is very simple, almost delicate, as you can see.
The Church is beautiful both inside and out. I took a photo of a plaque that is on the Church Organ which was placed there to commemorate his music.
I'm going to go and play Northern Sky now. That was the song that I sang as I sat by his grave that day.
Hope you like the pictures.
