Anybody who can write songs like that is a great great loss. R.I.P. Scott Walker.

Itās ironic that Scott Walker died on a very sunny day. He may have been a great singer, but he was shit at predicting the weather.
The Beatās Ranking Roger, well fuck it anyway
Wow I wasnāt expecting that.
Will The Beat go on?
No, saw him in Olympia St Patrickās night last year. didnāt realise he was unwell, had a stroke last Summer. One of the good guys
Having a Scott Walker night for the rest of the of the night here. Iāll play Scott (the first solo album) and then the soundtrack to Childhood of our Leader. If Iām still awake I have a lovely cassette of the best of the Walker Brothers and Scott Walker that I picked up in the 80s that somehow survived many burglaries and house moves that Iāll play.

Angelica is a cracker from that. Although I donāt think he wrote any of the songs on that.
Just listened to it there now. Lovely song. A lot of Jacques Brel songs on this record
