recorded a tribute album to the tragic hero of English
Fingerstyle - Nick Drake. Here is a transcription
of one of the tracks on this stunning album - "Freeride".

The
Belgian guitarist, Gilbert Isbin, a master of jazz
fingerstyle gives us wonderfully oblique, subtle
and hauntingly beautiful interpretations of 10 of
Drake's songs, including such classics as "River
Man" and "Way To Blue". Drake was a fan of people
like Miles Davis and I am sure he would have approved
of these exquisite, jazz-inflected fingerstyle renditions
Isbin so deftly gives his songs.
