I'm not convinced he's a great artist, but this ought to be a fascinating documentary: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dBMJ79ly3 B4 |

Kurt, I am. He is a tremendous singer first and foremost, but the way he has approached music over the last 25 years in the most unique of ways has now surpassed what i originally liked about the man, his voice. this clp was great, I must admit I caanot wait. The guy who got me into Scott when I was 13, a dear friend called bryn, taped me Amsterdam and that was it. But if there is one song in the world of music that bring s a ear to my eye, its Scott's 'On your own again'. its like Wire could've been in the sixties, its only 1min 30 secs or something nut its beaytiful and poignenet and everything I like about an artist. |

And for me, the supreme Scott Walker moment is "Boy Child." |

And, yeah, the film looks like a must see. YouTube is so great, it next linked me to a Walker Brothers version of "Love Minus Zero." |

Yes, that IS superb Spence. But I was referring to the song called "Boy Child." It's on that compilation and from "Scott 4." It's long been one of my favorites. |
