Scott Walker: Influences

Scott Walker: Influences

A unique combination of crooners and experimentalists impacted Scott Walker's unusual career. His early hits with the Walker Brothers borrowed from the Righteous Brothers' deep harmonies, while Jacques Brel's intimate chanson inspired his dark lyrics. And edgy electronics from such artists as Brian Eno, David Bowie and Karlheinz Stockhausen fed into his later-career avant-garde compositions.
