The Walker Brothers - No Regrets TopPop

Scott Walker, one of the most innovative and enduring songwriters of the 20th century, has died today, March 25, 2019, aged 76. Walker was born Noel Scott Engel in Hamilton, Ohio on 9 January 1943, and grew up in California. In 1964, he teamed up with John Maus – who was naming himself John Walker – and became the duo the Walker Brothers. Their drummer Gary Leeds was a veteran from the “swinging London” pop music scene and persuaded them to relocate to London, where Walker has been based ever since. Walker first came to fame in the mid-1960s in the group the Walker Brothers, before creating a string of acclaimed solo albums – Scott, Scott 2, Scott 3 and Scott 4 – that are regarded as some of the most adventurous and boundary-pushing pop albums of the era. He then moved further out to the periphery of the music scene, with an increasingly experimental run of albums, including 1995’s Tilt and 2006’s The Drift, which reflected on Mussolini’s mistress, the Srebrenica massacre, and 9/11. The Walker Brothers had several hits in the Netherlands. This song ‘No Regrets’ written by Tom Rush, was a hit for the Walker Brothers worldwide. It reached # 7 in the UK charts, #7 in the Dutch Top 40 and #5 in Belgium This Toppop recording was made and broadcast on 27 February 1976. Watch our great music videos ❯ More TopPop?
