It is also one of my favorite albums of all time. I had read an article in 1990 which mentioned one of Nick Drake's songs and piqued my interest in his music. For some reason his name stuck in my head for a few years even though I wasn't able to find any of his CD's in stores at the time. I found "Pink Moon" in a store in 1995 and bought it immediately, excited that I finally found something by Nick Drake. This CD runs about a half hour, and the night that I bought it I literally listened to this album at least 6 or 7 times for what ended up being hours. I just couldn't get over it; his voice so hushed yet so expressive, the otherwordly tunings on his guitar, the impressive and powerful finger picking style evident on each song...it still amazes me today. I really believed at the time (and was probably right) that this was one of the best kept secrets in music, and until the Volkswagon commercial which featured the song "Pink Moon", it was. Nick Drake had struggled with mental illness and depression in the years preceding this release and the lyrics, desperate and depressing as they can be, give an insight into his mind that apparently no one close to him was able to achieve. The surprise is that the end of the album features the more optimistic "From The Morning", which Nick's parents chose to quote on his gravestone. "Pink Moon", an introspective, all acoustic album with no instrumental backing aside from a brief piano solo in the title track, didn't help Drake's already suffering record sales, and his depression increased until his death from an overdose of anti-depressants in 1974. His biography made me more aware of why this album didn't sell more copies until recently, explaining that with bands like Roxy Music dominating the airwaves at the time, "Pink Moon" was not exactly going to take the world by storm and seemed decidedly uncommercial. The fact that this was Nick Drake's final album (out of only three he released) is a sad fact, but thank God this was made. My CD collection is nearing 2,000 and this album has remained one of my top five favorites for the past ten years. Definitely a "desert island" disc. Review: So real, so true, so Nick Drake.... - Many call this album stark, depressing, and disturbed. Yes, there are elements that are deeply sad, stark, and depressed, but I find most of the music beautiful, haunted, and beguiling. The title track is justifiably a Drake classic, and despite being used in a car commerical, I still love the song. The commercialisation of the song didn't hurt the integrity of it. Drake's music is like that. It's completely in its own universe than nothing can ever damage it. It's so pure and so unique. Nothing can poison it in the eyes of those who love this man's work. This is the most stripped down album Drake ever did. It's just his voice, his guitar, his songwriting, and a touch of piano in the title track. That's all that's really needed. Despite the fact that his other albums have beautiful instrumentation (including appearances by Richard Thompson and John Cale), the stripped down quality of this recording really enhances it. I'm not going to say if this is my favorite Nick Drake album, but ultimately, it doesn't matter with him. All 3 of his albums are so unique and special there's no need to divide them up. They are like chapters in a book, all contributing to the greatness of the man himself. I miss Nick Drake quite a bit, but the albums will remain. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B001AGNRYO | | Best Sellers Rank | #951 in CDs & Vinyl ( See Top 100 in CDs & Vinyl ) #1 in British Folk #2 in Baroque Pop #5 in Contemporary Folk (CDs & Vinyl) | | Customer Reviews | 4.8 4.8 out of 5 stars (2,234) | | Date First Available | May 30, 2008 | | Is Discontinued By Manufacturer | No | | Item model number | 28930581 | | Label | UMe | | Language | English | | Manufacturer | UMe | | Number of discs | 1 | | Original Release Date | 2013 | | Product Dimensions | 12.32 x 12.36 x 0.39 inches; 8.32 ounces | ## Images ![Pink Moon - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71aUI6YNXnL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ One of my top five favorite albums... *by B***N on November 9, 2005* Simply put, this is some of the most intimate and haunting music I've ever heard in my life.

I miss Nick Drake quite a bit, but the albums will remain. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ PINK MOON RISING *by J***G on July 20, 2008* Like, and not like, ROBERT JOHNSON's Blues, PINK MOON is NICK DRAKE's masterpiece for the fan of Folk Rock, but this record Rocks not, yet is quite Bluesy. The unusual and spare guitar, with NICK DRAKE's unique tuning, is reminiscent of the great American Blues artists like JOHNSON and SKIP JAMES, and yet, it is something else, something other, something more. These short songs are constructed of DRAKE's idiosyncratic guitar and melancholy lyrics that are not quite circular, but softer, more introspective and I'd dare say "organic," and only because NICK DRAKE is so... different. And also because his expressions are all Earthy: morning moon sun stars ...Yet like the Blues, these tunes have deeply personal themes borne of individual pain. Not really Orpheus wooing Eurydice with a guitar (as the Rolling Stone Album Guide calls it) it's more rustic than that, Celtic, but still timelessly dreamy, ethereal, and yes, a bit spooky, PINK MOON is an artist fully realizing his potential and expressing it. Ephemeral, romantic, insidiously charming, alluringly poetic, PINK MOON is the record that music lovers eventually find, will find, should find, in their dreamscape. Unforgettable and indescribable, this soft, lilting record is of a voice not really like anyone you've heard before, and won't hear again, unless you know or have known the dark angel murmuring in your dream night. ## Frequently Bought Together - Pink Moon - Bryter Layter - Five Leaves Left --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.bo/products/11712642-pink-moon](https://www.desertcart.bo/products/11712642-pink-moon) --- *Product available on Desertcart Bolivia* *Store origin: BO* *Last updated: 2026-05-22*
