Perhaps the crucial moment of Bryter Layter occurs on \"Poor Boy,\" where female backing vocalists literally mock the singer's anguished laments. Clearly, for as much as Drake's heart and soul were bared in every note of his music, he was self-aware enough to know that his disillusioned-romantic view of the world was one that put him on the fringes of society. Of course, some 25 years later, his early-1970s work would find a much wider audience, even though the initial era of the sensitive singer\/songwriter had long since passed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003csection id=\"features\"\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFeatures\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e180g Audiophile Virgin Vinyl\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRemastered by John Wood at Abbey Road Studios\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRemastered from 40-Year-Old Analogue Master Tapes Safety Copy\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePressed in Germany\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAuthentic Reproduction of the 1970 First Pressing with Original Textured Sleeve\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLimited-Time Bonus Voucher with a Choice of Download Formats, Including High-Definition 24 Bit \u0026amp; Dubbed from Disc\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/section\u003e\n\u003csection id=\"musicians\"\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eMusicians\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eNick Drake\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003evocals, guitar\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eRichard Thompson\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eguitar\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eDave Pegg\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ebass\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eEd Carter\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ebass\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eDave Mattacks\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003edrums\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eMike Kowalski\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003edrums\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003ePaul Harris\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003epiano\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eChris McGregor\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003epiano\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eRay Warleigh\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ealto saxophone, flute\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eLyn Dobson\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eflute\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003ePat Arnold\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ebacking vocals\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eDoris Troy\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ebacking vocals\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eJohn Cale\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eviola, harpsichord, celeste, piano, organ\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003c\/section\u003e\n\u003csection id=\"selections\"\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSelections\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eSide I:\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIntroduction\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHazey Jane II\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAt the Chime of the City Clock\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOne of These Things First\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHazey Jane I\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eSide II:\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBryter Layter\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFly\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePoor Boy\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNorthern Sky\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSunday\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e\n\u003c\/section\u003e","brand":"UMG","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56683270504780,"sku":"602537347551","price":5.6,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0979\/2913\/4412\/files\/original_ac2a43f0-a1f1-40c2-a61f-aac19ffdcbe3.jpg?v=1770600242","url":"https:\/\/vinylpulses.com\/products\/nick-drake-bryter-layter-import-lp","provider":"My Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
