The Kalowski Vaults: Scott Walker

DescriptionIn this podcast I look at Scott Walker’s whole career, looking at his desire to experiment from the his Walker Brothers b-sides and early solo records, remembering how he went from those amazing Brel-tinged Scott albums to the mid 70s covers records, before his sudden reinvention with the amazing Nite Flights tracks that first showed Bowie’s influence. I look at the late-period trilogy of Tilt, The Drift, and Bish Bosch, and suggest that his entire catalogue and not just his final decades is stranger, darker, but better than you can remember.Tracks discussedArchangel https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=quIHqyxZszALand of a 1000 Dances https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8qz8uq8bT2EMrs Murphy https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5PBdIhlpNXEOrpheus https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5y6nZB_QNEsMathilde https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AdPJc1XrogkPlastic Palace People https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ayrS74ktTyERosemary https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NGY3uCUt--gThe Old Man’s Back Again https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N-zgdGQB4S4The Electrician https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yELbkzAIfmARawhide https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V4t4gtrrngQPatriot (A Single) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o7WiHfWlfAIJolson and Jones https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5fJ0_uWjMfkSDSS1416+13B (Zercon, A Flagpole Sitter) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J8gBUHC6XeY&t=2sBull https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7GtoZV7E6W8About meI have a radio show, Single Minded, on Radio Alty, every week on Wednesday at 8pm (UK).
