The debut album from the enigmatic English songwriter, recorded while he was still a student at Cambridge University. 'Five Leaves Left' introduced Nick Drake's signature combination of intricate, jazz-tinged acoustic guitar work and hushed, intimate vocals. The album's melancholic and autumnal atmosphere is enhanced by the sophisticated string arrangements of his friend Robert Kirby, laying the foundation for the cult legacy that would grow decades after his death.
