NICK DRAKE - Fruit Tree
This reissue of the classic Drake box set is a curious one. There's no disputing his studio albums themselves--Five Leaves Left, Bryter Layter and Pink Moon are CLASSIC and getting them together is great. However, it lacks the killer rareties collection, Time Of No Reply found on the original Fruit Tree. Does the inclusion of a new 100-page book and DVD of the documentary A Skin Too Few compensate for this omission? Ultimately, that's up to the consumer, but as someone who has always told people to not bother with a Drake best-of CD because you're gonna want them all anyway, it's nice to have Fruit Tree back.
