Walker Whiplash

I love Scott Walker (Noel Scott Engel) --a true artist. An artist should be able to make art across genre lines, from pop music to the avant-garde, From the Walker Brothers (with perhaps an Elvis influence) to "Jesse". Frank Zappa on the other hand never compromised being a wag--even when he wanted to be serious--but that was his M.O.

Since the passing of Bowie, this code-switching is seen as more relevant and doable.
