3. Mayfair
4. Day is Done (acoustic)

15. Monologue (CHR)
The words in brackets show where the same recording is also available.
This was in a shop in Manchester for �20.
Maybe you can find it on E-bay.

Or you can cheat by going to nickdrake.net and download some of the mp3's


(Not heard this one so can't rate it)
Track Listing

Same as Tanworth in Arden (see below)
except:

Strange Meeting II
Joey (new version)
Blossom Friend
Been Smoking Too Long

and
Nick Drake Monologue
An Interview with John Martyn
Blossom Friend is an excellent unreleased song of Nick's. The monologue is hilarious due to the fact he seems really drunk after a party (Nick went to a party?!). I love the way that he introduces it with a gleeful "Good Evening!" or whatever it is he says.

The John Martyn interview is definietely worth a listen too because as one of Nick's closer friends you get a lot more insight.
Track Listing

18. To The Garden
The Tanworth in Arden albums are taken from Cassettes made by Nick Drake himself with basic recording equipment.

These are a chronicle, if you could call it that, of the period leading up to the time when he recorded Five Leaves Left.

It's also interesting to see the artists he covers.
Another interesting thing to note is the similarity between the verse/intro of Winter is Gone (a traditional song) and Strange Meeting II. Could this be "Strange Meeting I" perhaps?

This is simpy the rest of the recordings that Nick made at home. Though things are partial and incomplete, the instrumentals and works in progress are a nice thing to hear. It's a shame he never really developed some of them because I remember there being some really nice tunes in there.
It's also nice to hear more of Nick on piano which is rarely heard. And it's unbelievable that he ever picked up an electric guitar!
