Scott Walker-’Til the Band Comes In
Tuesday, October 5th, 2010
This is the last “real” Scott Walker album from the first solo run, and 2/3rds of it stands with his best work from those days. The last few songs on this one begin the running-on-fumes phase of his solo career… his smile on the cover looks eerily like the smile a boxer has on his face when he’s been knocked senseless.

Movie Review – Scott Walker: 30 Century Man
Saturday, January 23rd, 2010Last night I watched 30 Century Man, a documentary with Scott Walker as the central figure.
First, some background – I had the Walker Brothers’ 45 “The Sun Ain’t Gonna Shine Anymore” when it was a hit, so I had at least a passing familiarity with Scott Walker for years. That passing familiarity changed in 1988, when Lane Steinberg mentioned him in conversation as a “must hear” and then sent me a cassette compilation with songs from Walkers’ first 4 solo albums. The first time I heard it I have to say that I didn’t get it, but I kept trying (Lane is never wrong) and slowly became blown away. Of course I then set about getting my hands on anything I could by the guy. When I heard that this movie existed and that Scott Walker had allowed himself to be interviewed and filmed in the studio I was pretty excited, but I wasn’t sure I wanted to actually see it.
Scott Walker Heaven (I think)
