Riverman a song from Nick Drake's 1969 album Five Leaves Left. In 2004 the song was remastered and released as a 7" vinyl and as enhanced CD single including a video to the song by Tim Pope.
Nick Drake was an English singer-songwriter known for his acoustic guitar-based songs. He did not find a wide audience during his lifetime, but posthumously his work gradually achieved wider notice and recognition. I suppose that means after his death.
I think Nick Drake had some really good talent. The song River Man was a good song. I can't understand why some music artist like him didn't get that wide audience. Records don't always sell even if the artist does have great talent. There might be several reasons why.
Well, the River Man song is known. There is just something about that song.
