Happy Birthday, Noel Scott Engel a.k.a. Scott Walker!




Today Mr. Engel turns 71. Here's to wishing him many more healthy, happy creative years making the music he wants to make and keeping on breaking new ground.  Scott Walker's birthday should be an international holiday celebrated worldwide, if you ask me. You didn't,  but all the same, if you have time today, raise your glass to our hero and listen to his last three albums! Here's a selection from each in reverse chronological order. They're all available either new, in reissue or else at a local record store near you, where they can order them for you if needed.




Below is I think one of the most beautiful songs ever written.
