There is a clear and clean recording of this, but this one with ghostly music bleeding through from the other side of the magnetic tape was the first recording I heard and still captures something timeless to me.
Omg I never knew Nick covered this. He got me into Jackson C Frank from another cover and I loved him immediately. This song especially. And now I found this cover.
"Gold and silver is the autumn Soft and tender are her skies Yes and no are the answers Written in my true love's eyes Autumn's leaving and winter's coming I think that I'll be moving along I've got to leave her and find another I've got to sing my heart's true song Round and round the burning circle All the seasons: one, two, and three Autumn leaves and then there winter Spring is born and wanders free Gold and silver burns my autumns All too soon they'd fade and die And then I'd know, there'd be no others Milk and honey were their lies"
Nick is one of my favorite artists. I discovered that Jackson C Frank was one of his biggest influences, and in this song is very clear, the melancholic tone, the drag, the pace, mystery... What a forgotten genius Jackson was, every folk lover should check him out.

Nick and Molly's songs as well as their takes on other's songs strike me as being so intuitive, free from contrivance. I think this is part of why I love their music so much. It rings forth like something largely unmediated by musical convention, from the heart of people who can't help but sing. They do it because they love it and it's what they do naturally.
The first time I heard this song was when I was trying to study for an exam the next day. When I listened to the soft guitar along with that enchanting voice I immediately drop my books and just start to listen. I repeated it for like five times. It is such an interesting and amazing song which moves my soul. I appreciate Nick Drake, but I have been reading from the web that the original song was Jackson Frank's.
