Yes, mark - I've got it on CD somwhere - haven't heard it for ages, but what a great song, as you say-haunting.
He's playing some nice tunes today, Blondie - Heart of Glass, Ian Dury - Reasons to be cheerful. Class _________________ Some say he once threw a microwave oven at a tramp and that all his potted plants are called 'Steve'.....all we know is, he's called 'The Stig!'. |

Scott Walker is a god. I've got most of his CD's - including a comp called 'In The Beginning' - which features a very young Scotty singing, standards such as, 'Too Young', 'Paper Doll' and 'All I Do Is Dream Of You'.

He played 'Jackie' last (?) week another of my favourites. 'Mathilde' rarely gets played though.

I don't know if tonight's SAGA DJ reads these message boards or if he's an RA listener, but he played "No regrets" in the small hours of this morning. Good stuff.
He also played Alan Price's "Simon Smith and his amazing dancing bear".
106.60 FM in the East Midlands. Sadly I find myself listening more frequently because of the current standard of R2. _________________ Standing on Ray Moore's shoulders |

You ever need the wax blowing out of your ears Helen, ask me round and I'll give you my rousing rendition of 'Jackie' - in a cute, cute, 'shut the **** up!' way _________________ Eternal nothingness is fine if you happen to be dressed for it. |

Did they lie about being walkers too? Was Scott fond of wasting an afternoon up Winter Hill? |
