Profound shock when I heard the news this morning, and I felt for his family.
I experienced a sudden family death in 2005 and nothing prepares you.
I’ve recently watched the DVD ‘30th Century Man’ and I’m about halfway through the book ‘The Curious Life and Work of Scott Walker’, so he’s been on my mind.
Never a Walker Brothers fan, I preferred his later work like Scott 2. ‘Joanna’ was probably my favourite song, but many of the others remain memorable.
I did buy ‘Tilt’, but found much of the music impenetrable.
Didn’t bother with any of the later albums.
A sad loss to the world, that unique Scott Walker voice...
