Tribute to the Late, Great, Scott Walker

I've only just heard the news of his death at the age of 76. He was very underrated by the public at large but hugely respected by so many other artists like David Bowie, Radiohead, Jarvis Cocker, Brian Eno, Blur etc. It's sad at how many people don't even know the name.

If you hear of any radio/TV tributes coming up, let us know on here.

Feel free to put up one of your favourite Scott tracks up here.
This one is apt and a cracker:

Re: Tribute to the Late, Great, Scott Walker

Oh, sad. I was only reading about him a couple of weeks ago. His life was pretty full , and he seemed such a nice genuine guy on various interviews.

Another loss from the most amazing time the music industry ever knew . We were the lucky ones.

RIP, Scott.

In a similar vein try this brilliant if little known song. Warning: you may just get something in your eye:
