I just recently heard his music for the first time. Up and down, listening to Scott Walker’s music is truly a crazy ride. Some songs less tolerable than others, I can’t say I am a fan of everything he has done but I have found some real gems none the less. Since I am no music critic; more of a lover, lets talk of his tracks I do like. Next being my favorite song, I can’t help but think of how bizarre, almost mad his lyrics are. At the time this album was recorded, 1968, I think this was some pretty shocking stuff to have come from a mainstream artist. Can’t say for sure but one can only imagine looking inward at a Brady Bunch society that the word fag and gonorrhea were never sang in a pop song. Is gonorrhea capital g? http://www.liquiddrip.com/hopeless/3hree/Entries/2010/5/23_Perrey_%26_Kingsley-_One_Note_Samba.html 58e2bc5a-9036-4a07-aaa3-2773853d36ba Sun, 23 May 2010 14:39:18 -0400 <img src="http://www.liquiddrip.com/hopeless/3hree/Media/widget-snapshot_2.jpg" style="float:left; padding-right:10px; padding-bottom:10px; width:250px; height:209px;"/>I first was introduced to Perrey &amp; Kingsley by accident. I bought an album by the Beastie Boys entitled The In Sound from Way Out. It was an all instrumental based L.P. that they released in the mid 90’s. Months later I was flipping through a vintage magazine I found in my father’s store. With staggering synchronicity, I get to the back of the magazine and there it was; An advertisement for The In Sound from Way Out. With an almost identical album cover I was confused to say the least. Using what little resources I had to look this up (internet was almost non existent for me), I found this little gem I bring to you today. You can say that Perrey &amp; Kingsley we’re one of the first mainstream electronic acts ever. I am sure someone out there was tweaking buttons and knobs at the same time, maybe even earlier... but not to the success like Perrey &amp; Kingsley saw. http://www.liquiddrip.com/hopeless/3hree/Entries/2010/5/17_LaFlavour-_Mandolay.html a663a065-09b3-4488-ab8b-91571f9e930c Mon, 17 May 2010 18:41:50 -0400 <img src="http://www.liquiddrip.com/hopeless/3hree/Media/widget-snapshot_3.jpg" style="float:left; padding-right:10px; padding-bottom:10px; width:250px; height:209px;"/>This song is a dance classic. I remember digging in my father’s vinyl collection and finding this gem many moons ago. Never, even till this day, have I heard a song that can invoke my body to move the way it does when I hear this song. Watching this video only makes the whole listening experience even more enjoyable.
