Thanks Michael, Um, yes, I like "darker" too. What's better the soft
pop with a dark emotive tone? Not much for me. So thanks, thats
what I'll be picking up.

Don't you mean "godlike brilliance". ; )
Well, yes, that's who's music I put on more then ANYONE in the last
year. Honestly, I've even joined the Scott Walker list on Yahoo. I'd
encourage any of you that love Scott to join. They talk about many
Walker related things including downloads and such..which I've yet to
jump into. FYI: There is a 3 cd set coming out of Scott's solo work
but details of what's actually on it are still sketchy.
Plus, I'm about to buy a DVD that appears to have been lovingly put
together by someone on the Walker list. The DVD is of a variety of
performances from Mr Walker and the Walker Brothers for 25$. A steal
for any Walker fanatic (assuming the quality is as it appears).
Best and thanks again Michael,
Steve
