Scott Walker. (RIP March 2019)

Yeah right? He's the only one of my big heroes who is still likely to blow me away with new stuff. In all honesty I probably still think about the 'sound world' of Tilt every single day at some point, even though I almost never play it. It's like the dining room table in my memory house.

Wait we're not due another Scott Walker album for 4-5 years!

F U BRO

That link is a 404 for me – has he deleted the tweet?

oh huh, seemingly so. it was a list of records released as review copies to a magazine, organised by artist & including Scott Walker. some speculation on the twitter account i linked about what it might be now

no I mean the tweet is a 404, the image is still visible

new Royal Trux record?

New Dinosaur jr, new Schneider TM, new Pelt and new Pet Shop Boys too - is this a leak from 1995?

I see A.R. Kane also, on that list.

And according to this there will be a music video soon!!

Bish Bosch is one hell of a title, almost too perfect a summation of late era Walker. I had the same feeling when Nick Cave announced his new album would be called Nocturama.

!!!

We have a Bish Bash falls here in Western MA, please do show there thanks bye

Just reading about the song 'Only Myself to Blame' that Scott did for 'The World is Not Enough' Bond film. Poor decison by the director...

Arnold broke tradition by not ending the film with a new song or a reprise of the opening theme. Originally, Arnold intended to use the song "Only Myself to Blame", written by David Arnold & Don Black and sung by Scott Walker and inspired by the failed romance between Bond and Elektra King, who turns out to be a a villain. However, director Michael Apted "felt it it was too much of a downer for the end of the movie" and Arnold replaced it with a techno remix of the "James Bond Theme". "Only Myself to Blame", is the nineteenth and final track on the album

Where's that from? That new book about Bond music?

Does anybody know if the cd version of the 1st 5lps box set was a limited edition. I can't see it being sold reasonably cheaply anywhere suddenly. I had been putting off buying t thinking it was going to be around for a while.

Yeah, it's not even on ebay.

Or on Discogs, even. Weird.

i almost bought that but couldn't justify it just for the pola x stuff (but should've, that pola x stuff is good)

they're not talking about the 5 easy pieces box, they're talking about the recent reissue/remaster of the first five solo albums. But yeah, you should've shelled out for pola x and also for the 2 ute lemper songs, which are incredible. as good as anything on the later albums imo

Rough Trade seems to have copies still.

ohhhh bad reading skills, sorry.

Grabbed one.

It'll come out half-price with a DVD now...

but:

Dear Customer, Unfortunately, we have had to cancel your order for Scott Walker Scott Walker - The Collection 1967 - 1970 CDx5 because it is now out of print and we can no longer obtain it from our suppliers.

Kind Regards,
Rough Trade Shops Customer Service

Found a (more local) place that has it.

But! It's Getting Very Difficult!

find it weird that a package was given so much build up and exposure pre-release and some big adverts is already out of print within a matter of months.

There's a copy on Amazon for 80 quid if you're desperate.

I got it from Camberley's Rock Box for £23

I'll give you £21, £21, £21

So I'm not the only one who didn't ear that the cd box set was a limited edition. Assuming that it must be since its disappeared from everywhere including the Universal UK website, though the vinyl one is still up there.

hear even

(xxp) NickB Came Through

Like a gothic monster perched on Notre Dame

Well I didn't like to say but...

i bought mine when it came out for £17.28 na na na had no idea it was limited at all or would have bought TWO

yeah, i got mine on pre-release as well ..

but the fact remains, it is a little weird for a major label pressing to have been deleted so quickly.

could it have been that the cost of the sturdy box was too much for a bigger run ?

(kinda like the very heavy duty Roxy Music boxset .. )

Well, the only other place I found had it for $69 plus postage, from a US based place, so hey.

It was one I was going to get, one of these days, but never got round to it.

Still, one of those boxes that had a CD price of "quite reasonable", and an LP box of "How Much!?"
