Unlikely Pairing = Surprising Treat!
Nigel Kennedy and Boy George doing Nick Drake...making the best cover of Riverman ever. The quality of Boy George's voice is so perfect for this song. Full of rasp and emotion he may have found the next phase of his singing career with this song. Also love "Song for my Father," although it doesn't feature enough NK.
