Scott Walker RIP


Recommended Posts

Well, this came as a bit of a shock, I have to say:

https://www.theguardian.com/music/2019/mar/25/scott-walker-experimental-pop-hero-dies-aged-76

I always appreciated the fact that he just went ever further into the deep end as he got older - where a lot of artists would have fallen back on trying to recreate the vibe of some of their early hits to cash in on the nostalgia, his music just got stranger and more unsettling.

Fun fact relevant to this parish: he was also the bassist in the original Walker Brothers lineup.

A true legend of the music business. Been a big fan for a lot of years. 

I'm the same as EliasMooseblaster, I loved the fact he kept pushing out into new territory as he got older. 

I remember a friend giving me a copy of Tilt way back in the nineties and it blew me away. 

21...  21... 21...
