Scott Walker "Scott 4" (1969)
Apparently the commercial failure of this album drove Walker to retreat
from writing and the music industry for a number of years; though he
eventually emerged with a brand new bag musically.
I'm not sure why this one was less popular than his previous 3 solo
albums, this is the first time I've listened to this album, but it
sounds to be along similar lines to the previous albums (maybe that was
the problem?). Luscious string arrangements back Walker's gentle
croon with one or two livelier, galloping numbers for variety.
