🕑 Added 2025-08-12 22:06:56 +0000 UTCI'm pleased to present this installment of the Behind the Score series. I've been re-fascinated with the music of Nick Drake recently, so I took this opportunity to do a deep dive into his song River Man. I hope you enjoy.

Love the extended harmonies in this song. Lot contemporary jazz has a lot to add color.

An absolutely beautiful BTS which deepens understanding and appreciation of this wonderful piece. For me, this is what BTS is all about - analysis that takes nothing away from the piece, but adds important insights into the way the music works, to involve the mind as well as the heart and soul to the experience of the music. On a personal note, I felt privileged to bring this piece to Doug, and I feel delighted that Doug was moved enough to delve into the workings and share with us.

One of your best analyses, thank you! You’ll encounter Robert Kirby again as you explore Nick Drake and Strawbs.
