After leaving The Walker Brothers to go solo, Scott Walker forged a critically acclaimed career on his distinctive sound of dramatically crooning ballads over grand orchestral backing. Second solo LP Scott 2 was his commercial high-point but is probably his least memorable record from that era. Instead, the non-charting Scott 4 (1969), his first solo record of exclusively self-written songs, is most revered by critics today, for songs such as "Angels of Ashes" and "Hero of the War".
Walker's career took a downward turn in the 70s, and he remained a cult favourite locked firmly in fans' pasts until 1995, when the bleak and experimental Tilt marked a long-awaited critical comeback. The Drift (2006) was another avant-garde release which fared well in the alternative music press.
