This song was written about Nick Drake. They were best buddies and on the same record label. John Martyn (from Glasgow) genius.
Anyone on here lucky enough to have seen him live? If so, lucky, lucky people!
The first track here 'Kings crossing' basically telling everyone what he was going to do (suicide / murder, who knows). As Courtney Love said 'The best suicide story ever'
Elliott Smith was an alcoholic. His friends tried to put him in rehab. His response this song. 'Christian Brothers' is a type of alcoholic spirit. As is 'St. Ives Heaven'. Genius!!
Is there any point when he will likely be away at end of season when his loan is up? Useful bench player, more options of course which is great, but...
