The late Nick Drake’s manager on the nine-year project “The Making Of Five Leaves Left”

Cally Colomon looks after the legacy of Nick Drake, who died in 1974 but attracts new teenage admirers all the time. Here he talks to David Hepworth about just some of what that involves, including: …chancers getting in touch with a bogus live recording when they’ve got a tax bill to pay … film producers wishing to superimpose their image of Nick Drake on everybody else’s…spending months in the archives finding out exactly what is on every tape…listening to people who claim they know exactly what happened on a Tuesday sixty years ago…sorting out the real material from the bogus to put together a set which expands our understanding of the 1969 recording…responding to people who think all this work should somehow be available for free.The Making of Five Leaves Left: https://NickDrake.lnk.to/TMOFLLFind out more about how to help us to keep the conversation going: https://www.patreon.com/wordinyourearHelp us to keep The Longest Continuous Conversation In Rock'n'Roll going: https://www.patreon.com/wordinyourear Hosted on Acast.
