Three decades later, he is recognized as one of the true geniuses of English acoustic music. Yet Nick Drake--whose music was as gentle and melancholy as the man himself-- has always maintained a spectral presence in popular music. This groundbreaking biography reconstructs a vanished life while perfectly capturing the bohemian scenes surrounding the music business in London in the late '60s and early '70s. Using many newly discovered documents and all-new interviews, Trevor Dann reveals more detail on Nick Drake than ever, from his upbringing in a quintessentially English village, through his hash-fueled school days at Cambridge University, to the missed opportunities and mismanagement that defined his career. Friends and colleagues describe the difficulties that he faced as each new album was released, only to fail, and the insidious despair that consumed him. Complete with discography and rare photos, \u003ci\u003eDarker Than the Deepest Sea\u003c\/i\u003e is essential reading for anyone who has been moved by Nick Drake's unforgettable blend of beauty and sadness.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe former head of BBC Music Entertainment and producer of \u003ci\u003eLive Aid\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003cb\u003eTrevor Dann\u003c\/b\u003e has written for the \u003ci\u003eTimes, Q, Mojo\u003c\/i\u003e, and the \u003ci\u003eIndependent\u003c\/i\u003e.
