Scott is the king! Wicked run of albums in the late '60s, and by fuck if I don't love his Wall of Sound arrangements to death.
Scott Walker is also an underrated winger on the Nashville Predators.

I really like one of his last albums, if indeed it wasn't his last album, "Tilt". The song "Farmer in the city" is just, well, blimey.

He's back in the studio at the moment.
He wrote two tracks for Ute Lemper's album 'Punishing Kiss' a couple of years ago which were very Tilt-y, so I reckon the new album will be too.
Hard to decide which album I like best - it's a tossup between side A of 'When the band comes in' and Scott 4

You have a bloke called Wally Stott to thank for those wall-of-sound arrangements. He's an excellent orchestrator.

i just lately discovered his voice. strong, massive, ...maybe it's because that reverb ?
"it's raining today" is one of those songs that can ....what is the phrase ? rip you in two, or break you into pieces or tear you apart.
Brendan Perry from Dead Can Dance once pointed at Walker as one of his greatest influences. I can hear why, especially on Perry's solo album.
thanks gruntels and axion for showing me the guy. i'm now going to dive into his 1-4 albums.
