These two songs are off the album "Family Tree". The first song is Nick Drake singing with his sister Gabrielle Drake, and the second song is Nick Drake's mother, Molly.
@@dickditty480 This is a traditional song, the origins of which aren't clear. Gabrielle wasn't in a group with Nick. This is simply a song they recorded at home. Although she has a lovely voice, she was never a musician or songwriter. She's an actress by profession.
This is the first time I have heard these duets . If they were a folk group, drake would probably have made it. Good quitar, good song writing, good voices and a strong charater like his sister to take the pressure off him. On the other hand her alto voice might do your head in.
@@apes4days254 It's not actually. Its origins are unclear, but it seems it probably originated in the Bahamas, or in the US around the time of the Civil War. The lyrics certainly have an American or West Indian spiritual flavour. I don't think it sounds or feels remotely like a traditional English folk song, even when performed by the quintessentially English Nick!

Dear every commenters, down voters and upvoters alike. I love you all.
I love u bro
Very pleasing and pleasantly surprised to discover how well Gabrielle sings
I get the impression she may have been doing the writing for them as a group.

His mom sings like a freaking angel. Yowza.
It's his sister you're hearing here, but I agree.
@@SilentAttackTV Description says it's his sister on the first song, and his mom on the second.
@@nomadben Yea, I kind of forgot this video was two songs in one when I wrote that comment.
Sincere, beautiful, haunting.
damn, that solo from nick at the end of trials makes me ball like a little girl for some reason #Noshame
*bawl
@@mattcunningham9235 not really adding anything by correcting him lol.
@@ethanblizzard4939 uh yeah I am. If you know anything about the word "ball" it means something very off in another context. Thanks.
The whole song does for me honestly
@@mattcunningham9235 haha...

I can see that Nick must have been influenced by his mother. She has a similar reserve and use of melody. Very interesting.
Nice observation.
Gabrielle played the lead purple-haired girl on the moon base on the 1970 British series UFO
Sweet family music.
