The Walker Brothers
Portrait

Description

Portrait brings together some of the finest moments from the Walker Brothers’ celebrated run as one of the defining acts of 1960s British pop. Scott Walker’s rich, baritone voice was tailor-made for the grand, string-drenched productions that fill this CD, from the aching romanticism of ‘Another Tear Falls’ to their era-defining smash ‘The Sun Ain’t Gonna Shine Anymore’. The collection also showcases the trio’s flair for soulful interpretations, with takes on ‘People Get Ready’ and ‘Summertime’ sitting alongside original material. A beautifully varied set that captures the Walker Brothers at the height of their commercial and artistic powers…
