Exact Replicated Audiophile Virgin Vinyl Pressing

Remastered from the Original 40-Year Old Analog Master Tapes by the Original Co-Producer and Engineer John Wood at Abbey Road.

Pink Moon, Nick Drake’s third and final album, was originally released on Island Records in 1972 and is the record that made him the cult figure he remains to this day. Recorded in November of 1971, the beautifully spare 11-song set only features Drake's vocals, guitar, and piano. The music comes across as peaceful and unadulterated through its richly woven textures of tone and melody. Although the story behind his music is undeniably tragic, what he left behind here is truly breathtaking.

[quote] [color=pink] I’ll make this short. Run, don’t walk, and order a copy (or two) of this new reissue. Everything else is second best in my opinion. If your analog rig and electronics are up to the task, you will hear rich nuances, air, and separation not available on any other pressing I’ve heard. As good as the original UK –1U pressing is, and it is very good, it can’t compete with the resolution and fullness available here. Don’t worry, this mastering is not one of those attempts at eliciting more detail at the expense of warmth and musicality. You can expect to hear newfound bending of guitar strings and previously unheard vocal inflections. Yet everything is natural and smooth, with the added benefit of greater presence and believability. MUSIC 10 / SOUND 11
