Ethereal, exceptional, beautifully orchestrated pop music from one of the late 20th century's most idiosyncratic artists, SCOTT 3 contains a series of lush, mesmerizing songs that typify the free-spirited, experimental late 1960s. Scott Walker also gives free rein to his more epic impulses on songs like the careening "We Came Through," a prime example of the kind of marvelously over-the-top pieces that made him a byword for eccentricity, while "30th Century Man" is almost the exact opposite, featuring only the mellow-voiced singer and an acoustic guitar. There's also an alternately tense and serene version of "If You Go Away" that marks the artist as one of Jacques Brel's finest English interpreters.
24bit HDCD digitally remastered edition of Walker's third solo album, originally released in April 1969, reaching a peak of #3 on the UK pop charts. This edition includes additional photos supplied by the Antar Archive. The disc itself is a picture disc, replicating the look of a vinyl album.
SCOTT 3 is the third solo album by the eccentric pop singer.
CD is a picture disc.Q (9/00, p.131) - 4 stars out of 5 - "...[The] gems proliferate....A record collection without Scott Walker is like one without The Beatles, The Clash or The Smiths - incomplete." Mojo (Publisher) (8/00, p.97) - "...Resonates with the riches of the last great days of the pop narrative. The pop song rarely aspired to such literacy after this....forged in the white-hot glare of the pop process....[with] superb orchestrations..." NME (Magazine) (8/12/00, p.29) - Ranked #16 in The NME "Top 30 Heartbreak Albums" - "...Rarely has existentialism sounded so empathetic. SCOTT 3 is truly depressed, deeply sad and utterly moving."

Scott 3 album
$11.99 The Cinderella-esque climb from lo-fi indie cult artist to Grammy nominee/major label darling must have been a perilous one for Smith, who makes the leap to the big time here after three well-regarded albums on small labels. He's lost none of his bite, though. The production values on XO may be slightly higher, but Smith's vision remains undiluted.
The production, centered around acoustic guitar augmented by keyboards and lush vocal harmonies, recalls pop icons like the Beach Boys (especially on the closing acapella cut), Beatles and Big Star, but this is no sunny Cali-pop album. Leavening the instrumental brightness are Smith's Nick Drake-ish whisper and his thoroughly downcast lyrics, which cast him squarely ...

Scott 3 songs
$11.39 Originally released in 1967, SCOTT is the debut record by rock & roll musician, Scott Walker.
Following the dissolution of the Walker Brothers in 1967, Scott Walker (born Noel Scott Engel) embarked on an adventurous solo career, steering the dramatic pop sensibility of his former group into darker, stranger waters. On this debut, the American-born/British-based crooner assertively stakes out his territory as one of the preeminent interpreters of Jacques Brel (as translated by Mort Shuman) by offering up three of the often macabre French songwriter's compositions--the galloping "Mathilde," the gloriously melancholy "My Death," and the gloomy "Amsterdam."
Even more notable, however, are Walker's original numbers, particularly ...
| | Elliott Smith From A Basement On The Hill CD (2004)
Scott 3 album
$14.49 Elliott Smith's death in 2003 left a cavernous hole in the world of popular music. Tender, intimate, and painfully honest, the songs in Smith's catalogue capture the fragility of human existence with rare, breathtaking beauty. On his first posthumous release, Smith reaffirms his status as an extraordinarily gifted artist, giving fans yet another reason to mourn his tragic loss.
Conceived as an ambitious double album, FROM A BASEMENT ON THE HILL was ultimately narrowed down to 15 tracks by Smith's close friends, ...

Scott 3 music CDs
$9.29 "This extremely clever split CD brings together two bands each consisting of one boy and one girl. And get this both from sunny North Dakota! The first band has more conventional indie-pop sounds, with well-written, catchy, fast-paced boy-girl rock gems, while the second takes a decidedly more experimental track, getting a lot more dreamy and abstract, with multi-layered vocal tracks and softer rhythms. A great split, and a wonderful effort by both." - IMPACT PRESSHow to Make Better Love showcases the two best male/female indie-pop duos inNorth Dakota, hands down. Without a doubt."In Ink Please is up first with a handful of beautiful and melancholy songs. Vanessa Palmer has a strong and lovely voice, which is somehow complimented by guitarist Jerik Hendrickson's flat backing vocals. Considering the lackof instrumentation (Palmer rocks the Rhodes and a clarinet alongside Hendrickson's solid guitar work), these songs are as sharp as tacks. Both "AQ75#3" and "The Kurdish Army" feature smart tempo changes and smarter lyrics -- poetic, but still pedestrian and accessible. That said, I can't help thinking that In Ink Please would be far better off if they bit the bullet and hired ...
