stuartbert two hats Posted March 25, 2019 Report Share Posted March 25, 2019 My personal favourite. Just when his pop background and avant-garde future were in balance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stuartbert two hats Posted March 25, 2019 Report Share Posted March 25, 2019 He started here: Started writing singles with this, which was already influencing 90s bands of the futures: Kept doing covers with solo work: via here: Started to move towards more experimental music Before fully embracing the avant garde with this: and not seeming to mellow with age, with this easy listening album opener from 2012: Before unexpectedly embracing more melodic, if not exactly gentle music for a film soundtrack: A proper innovator and original musician. A genuinely experimental and influential artist - for those who could get through his later work, there were treasure troves in their spades to be found in his records. I've no idea what kind of mind led to making such music, but I'll miss him. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cooter Posted March 25, 2019 Report Share Posted March 25, 2019 Great voice, great tunes, rip Scott Walker. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quark Posted March 25, 2019 Report Share Posted March 25, 2019 Mary Anne Hobbs in proper bits on 6Music after playing his birthday clip for Bowie. Quite hard to listen to. I knew very little of his stuff, not going to pretend otherwise. But Sun Ain't Gonna Shine Anymore and Make It Easy on Yourself remain absolutely beautiful tunes that I never get bored of hearing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maelzoid Posted March 25, 2019 Report Share Posted March 25, 2019 I listened to the The Drift once. I found it impenetrably difficult. You've got to admire anyone who releases such a thing, truly audacious. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
