The debut album from legendary singer-songwriter Nick Drake is set to be reissued as a deluxe vinyl boxset in July.
Five Leaves Left, originally released in 1969, will be remastered and re-released on 2 July along with a handwritten lyric booklet, poster and MP3 download code. It’ll be pressed by Island Records on heavyweight vinyl, boxed in a clamshell-style casing.
It’s the last of Drake’s back-catalogue to experience such a secondary outing, with his other two studio albums Bryter Layter and Pink Moon having already been reissued.
