)Rosm - will you mind if I repost your reply here? I'll respond to it soon, it'll just have to be the right time..."Just wait a while, for the right day"
(edit)meant to ask - was the documentary you saw a skin too few? if so I think it was a dutch film or co-production ( not sure if its even been shown here - or least not on terrestial tv - know it was definitly shown on Dutch tv & more recently at a UK film festival) Haven't seen it but heard good things about it at the time & wanted to, manged to find grab a copy on ebay today
have there been any more made about him? - the seller claims to have 2 documentaries but the only other one I've heard of is a long lost (then found again in the last 5 years or so) student film made cira mid 70s/80s by someone at either the university/college he went to or one local to where he lived - just remembered could part of bbc's rock shrines show - they had a segement on Nicks fans. (there was a feature in the Guardian about it, either the film make ror reported had to be told before meeting the fans at a graveside gathering that alot of them didn't/couldn't? talk - just like Nick
)(/edit)
an observation and a question before I go
While writing this & browsing elsewhere Sunrise by Pulp came on, just sudnely realised that this is musically influanced by him too, well in the opening parts at least.
I've also found a copy of the demos that Elton John did of a few of Nicks songs (when he was a sessioner and before Drake started recording himself) for sale - has anyone here heard them?
