Nick Drake: The Making Of Five Leaves Left LTD version on 4CD/Box Set in limited edition. This particular edition was published in Europe, UK and USA in publishing company Universal Music Recordings on 26. September 2025.

"Five Leaves Left" is the debut studio album by English singer-songwriter Nick Drake, released in 1969 by Island Records. The album's title refers to a warning found on the last five leaves of Rizla cigarette papers, indicating that only five sheets remain. This introspective and melancholic album showcases Drake's intricate guitar playing and distinctive, soft vocal style. The ten tracks feature a blend of folk and baroque arrangements, with "River Man" being noted for its complex time signature and string arrangement by Harry Robinson. Other tracks like "Three Hours" and "'Cello Song" highlight Drake's proficiency in finger-picking guitar technique, while "Time Has Told Me" and "Way To Blue" offer a more somber tone. The album also includes "Day Is Done," "The Thoughts Of Mary Jane," "Man In A Shed," "Fruit Tree," and "Saturday Sun," each contributing to the album's reflective mood. Despite its initial lack of commercial success, "Five Leaves Left" has since become a cult classic, revered for its poetic lyricism and innovative musicianship.

Album spans genres Rock, Folk, World, & Country, Folk and Folk Rock. Limited Edition.
