 A couple of years later I had another go at reading the book but again found the author's rambling on about nothing to be way too tedious to engage me, eg a particular beer that Nick might have drank at some gathering, then a paragraph about said beer.
I dumped the book.

 Just read the first few pages today, the forward, introduction and then some random paragraphs inside the book. The author begins with some tenuous link between Nick Drake and the Titanic (yes The Titanic) via the author's uncle Jim who watched the ship's launch, and gives other mundane happenstance reasons for writing this book. 20 minutes later and I was flipping through the book, some random paragraph tried to convince me that no other English singer except Peter Skellern, maybe, sang in Drake's particular English way. Other paragraphs waffled on about non-Drake stuff giving the impression of padding out. Perhaps one day I will have enough idle time to waste on this, but for now the book has been filed away in the big cardboard box at the back of the cupboard.

 I had this, and leant it to my (former) father-in-law... I don't think I ever got it back! Really good book as I recall.
