Guest awkward Posted June 27, 2008 Share Posted June 27, 2008 when was the last time scott played live? special guest vocalists is interesting but who could do walker proud? hes chosen these people so he must believe they do justice. World premiere live performances of songs from Scott Walker's seminal works including Tilt and Drift. so not just tilt and drift. maybe some nite flights... yep i'd go but as you say i'm on the wrong side of the pond Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kaini Posted June 27, 2008 Author Share Posted June 27, 2008 maybe not the last time, but one of them. 1995 fucking... scary. reminds me of jandek a bit lol at him rocking out at 2.30 clip is fucking heavy for one man and one guitar i'm going to lay a bet on jarvis is a guest vocalist. maybe ute lemper? she's a barbican sort of girl. i'd fuckin love a bit of diamanda galas doing bouncer see... bouncer, or something. and i'd love to hear them do the electrician or nite flites.

Guest awkward Posted June 27, 2008 Share Posted June 27, 2008 this might sound silly but i'd like to hear him attempt a tim buckley cover album. probably way too pop for him now but maybe 20 years ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kaini Posted June 27, 2008 Author Share Posted June 27, 2008 in the last wire interview he was talking about his next album being something that a traditional rock quartet could play live... then again, it's scott. dream scott quartet? hmm scott walker - guitar/vox kevin shields - guitar/treatments brian eno - synths/loops/objects chris corsano - drums and objects Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kaini Posted June 27, 2008 Author Share Posted June 27, 2008 i don't think the point of rosary is an yngwie-like level of skill he did two songs with ute - still haven't heard one of them myself i'd rip the other but i'd have to go looking for the album and shit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kaini Posted June 27, 2008 Author Share Posted June 27, 2008 i literally typed "30 century man torrent" into google it is great though. contains a good chunk of stuff from the bbc docu about the making of the drift. meatpunching ftw. you seen the jandek movie? it's a bit VH1 behind the music, but nevertheless good http://thepiratebay.org/tor/3877642/Jandek_on_Corwood_-_2003 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest awkward Posted June 27, 2008 Share Posted June 27, 2008 i've seen torrents before but never with anyone seeding haven't seen jandek vh1. will grab thanks. i like anything a bit weird even if i don't like the music i like the idea Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest awkward Posted August 5, 2008 Share Posted August 5, 2008 watched the documentary last night. when it started i knew i'd seen it before but knew i hadnt seen it before. the fucking bbc swiped the best bits for that imagine show, so nto much of it was new to me. still enjoyable and i think i appreciate some of his later work a little bit more now. rosary has been in my head all day. downloading climate of hunter for a listen too. oh the 80s drumming Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Benedict Cumberbatch Posted November 9, 2008 Share Posted November 9, 2008 oh this soon. interview in the guardian: http://www.guardian.co.uk/music/2008/nov/0...alker-interview In his place will be a succession of guest vocalists including Jarvis Cocker, Damon Albarn, Dot Allison, Gavin Friday and classical baritone Grant Doyle. A 40-piece orchestra will also be in attendance alongside Walker's studio group and a contemporary dance troupe. 'It will be a tightrope walk,' he says. 'There is never enough time to prepare these things, but if it's going to be a train wreck, it will certainly be an interesting one. There will be one or two surprises, too.'

Guest Benedict Cumberbatch Posted November 10, 2008 Share Posted November 10, 2008 that IS a great graph! very interesting. there was a cover version on climate of hunter? i think the awesomeness of nite flights s too low unless you're counting the whole record and not just his songs. i wonder if you could add reclusiveness to the graph. or maybe vsibility, like how much he played live, did interviews or hid in his house. or maybe even add a baseball cap line. % of time worn around this album.

kaini Posted November 10, 2008 Author Share Posted November 10, 2008 yeah that IS a good graph jesus wtf i was wasted the night i made that and yeah blanketroll blues on climate of hunter, that is roughly a leadbelly song. roughly. actually i like damon but not with the same part of my brain that i like walker hahahaha this made me rofflemow for some reason if i was to only count the scott songs on NF, (and when i ripped the CD, they're all i ripped, fuck the rest) then it would be my favourite scott thing.
