"How dare they? It's horrible, take it off!"
That's too funny. Scott was something else.
Yeah. Although I agree with many of his observations, he seems pretty uppity for a "one-hit wonder" guy.
@@robbiearroyo2292 That may be, but there is always a nice way to say things as well. While I, too would have rejected those that Scott did, bullies are never worth spending time with. Some people wonder why their friends begin to disappear when the answer is often the face that they see in the mirror.
@@obbor4 Friends are overrated. At least he wasn’t boring like some people.
@@darrenjray Seems like I might have hit a nerve. My apologies to the friends that you've apparently lost.
@@obbor4 😂
Sometimes I wish I could enter a time machine and go back to 1967 in London for a whole week.
Same here!
Me too.
I'm with you!
Make it a month
this guy is hilarious, love it, so refreshing to hear honesty
First song on the lineup is the great Arnold Layne by the Syd Floyd!!!!
And to boot, the review highlights the interesting lyrics and he even ends with a cheeky, “I haven’t tried transvestism yet”!! Awesome!!
That song blows.
Syd was the only other genius in the room besides Scott. "It's horrible, take it off" is a good rally cry for the rest of Floyd's post-Barrett career.
You mean it “blows” your mind how unique it was right?
Or u mean it “blows” the way Mrs. Peterson blows??
Get roasted chump!
There’s a link here. I’m sure I read that Syd’s signature Telecaster was previously owned by Scott. I don’t know if he got it directly from him or through a third party
@@davidmurray2539
Ummagumma (the live disc), Meddle and Wish You Were Here were great albums, but most of the rest were Roger Waters and his miserabilism.
Ha ha ha Scott Walker is so critical, but with that beautiful baritone voice, what can you do. Loved the man!
Trouble is it is not Scott Walker speaking!
@@roberthallam6741 I was referring to the comments he was allegedly making, not the recreation of his voice used on this video. But I still love his baritone voice. Cheers.
I like how blunt this guy is. There were a lot of forgettable songs released in the 60s among the classics that people today have indeed forgotten.
While other guys wrote songs about girls. Syd wrote songs about scarecrows and transvestites who stole women's clothing from his mother's washing line. I love that crazy diamond! 😂💎 Lovely to hear "Strawberry Fields Forever" at the end. Great video as always YP 🎸
are you just gonna pretend See Emily Play, the follow-up single, doesnt exist? :p
@@GroovingPict ... Another great single.
Looking at that chart reminds me of how many easy listening and soft pop records were in the charts in the 1960s. Because the cool bands are now collectable people think that the 60's was all about hip rock music when middle of the road artists sold bucket loads.
Yep, many people forget that the moms and dads of all the hip kids were also buying records and they were definitely not buying the latest Pink Floyd or Soft Machine singles.
Yep and sadly that's why the UK charity shops are still full of Val Doonican, Perry Como, Harry Secombe etc etc records. I wish they could all be just put into landfill/destroyed never to be seen again.
@@nigelcampag1290 Yes I could have mentioned that. Good point, although more recently I think that the charity shops send records to their central office to be valued and only the dross is put on display.
Exactly. People only tend to remember the good stuff. I've been doing a music project where I listened to the Top 500 singles from each year starting in 1963 and obviously you had greats like The Beatles, Stones, Kinks, Hendrix etc, BUT I think the 1990s were actually better than the 1960s in terms of breadth of musical range and the sheer number of good artists. Also people tend to be nostalgic about the 1980s but again having listened through all those singles the 1980s were far and away the poorest decade between the 60s to the 90s. I like good synthpop, Depeche Mode say, or Human League, but there was so much utter garbage synthpop in the 80s that everyone has forgotten about. There really was a plague of no marks with keyboards stinking the place out....
Correct
Even in the mid 60's there were singles being released that sounded like it belonged to 50's vocal groups
Alternate title: "Scott Walker raydavieses the singles of March 1967"
Hahaha!
😄
Can you imagine him rating today's songs?
He ir-ray-diated them with his ray-tings...
@@kennethrussell1158 Ooh! Take it OFF!! ....No-O-O - take it OFF! ....TAKE IT OFF-F-F!!!!...
This was great. I love it, Scott Walker reviewing Matt Monro. I adore them both.
Nice to know Scott was a Matt Monro fan. Great taste. 'Walk Away' is one of my favourite records ever.
Hey creators of YP, I really like the new add-on segment at the end where you show the top 50.
It’s interesting to see what else was being released at that point in time.
And to this point, you’ve corrected a misconception I’ve had for many years in that I always believed “Let’s Spend the Night Together” was released much earlier than ‘67.
If I was asked that trivia id have said ‘66 or possibly even late ‘65, but learning it was put out at the same time as Strawberry Fields and Penny Lane is interesting. Shows how different and dare I say more progressive the Beatles were than the Stones, at least in comparison of those singles anyway.
Don’t get me wrong, the Stones would put out some excellent progressive stuff of their own of course.
Lady Jane is one of my all time favs and I’ve never tired of Brian’s Victorian era contribution in that one
Glad you like that segment, I thought it would be interesting to show the Top 50 singles that week. Yep, the "Let's Spend The Night Together/Ruby Tuesday" single came out in January,1967, a month before "Strawberry Fields Forever".
Also.. wasn't Between the Buttons released at the same time?
@@calvinguile1315 Yes, it was also released in January.
@@YesterdaysPapers I'd love to see reactions for Jan '67. Forgive me if you already have one out. The Doors first album was released that month as well and Break On Through was the single.
@@YesterdaysPapers Yes, I also love the charts at the end. Keep up the excellent work! 👏👏👏
Tbf to Scott he's such a tough critic he hated most of his own music as he got older. Fascinating musician who started as a pop star unseating The Rolling Stones from the top of the charts and ended up doing some of the most dark avant-garde stuff and film soundtracks. I love his later solo stuff most myself.
one trick pony
i was waiting for a Scott one and it's about as savage as I expected it
It's really amazing that different types of music on that playlist at the end!.. not saying better or worse than now just how incredibly different the music was from song to song...u got ballads to standards psychedelic to soul to country to straight ahead rock and roll.. meanwhile everything nowadays is exactly the same on any top 40 radio.
I like these shorts, it transports you back to that wonderful era
SW was an enigma. One of the greatest voices in pop history who didn't seem to get how talented he was.
I was really hurt when he, in the last decades of his life - when he became more experimental - renounced his own first great solo albums. Scott was simply born for ballads and chansons, and in that genre he wrote fantastic songs too. And all of a sudden he stopped doing that, and even brought his timbre down to a pinched, reedy quality. Gone was the beautiful, sexy, sophisticated baritone...
Scott Walker reviewing The Wurzels. Now, I've heard everything.
He’s right about the Easybeats. A brilliant group.
And one of them was the older brother of the AC/DC brothers.
I can't believe there's only 16.6K subscribers to this channel. Three zeros are missing. I love it so much. The internet was created for stuff like this channel. 💯
Thank you, Nathalie!
I was waiting for someone’s contemporary take on Arnold Layne! And Scott Walker no less…
I give Scott a lot of credit for covering Jacques Brel's song 'My Death' and actually doing a better job than Jacques himself. Not an easy feat to surpass Mr. Brel.
Love that cover.
Bowie's version was not bad either, and also Port of Amsterdam.
@@ExplodingPsyche I have an old CD in which Bowie announced to the audience that night he was going to perform 'My Death' even though his voice was a bit shot and then does a fantastic job.
I love all three versions mentioned here but Brel's original is probably my favourite. The fast tempo and different mad jazz chords make it sound like a totally different piece of music to the Walker and Bowie covers.
Loved Scott's version of Brel's "Next", but The Sensational Alex Harvey Band's version was brilliant.
Nice detail about the top 50 singles
It Must be included in every single video!!
The Strawberry Fields inspired sketch at the end is great! Keep up the fantastic work YT!
Thanks!
Scott Walker was 100% on the money when he said Matt Monro doesn't sound anything like Sinatra. Sure, he's a crooner, but he had a very distinct voice. John Barry knew Monro was unique, hence why he sang three different movie title songs for him.
My father used to get outraged when people compared Matt Monro to Frank Sinatra. He thought Matt was a much better singer. Mum's favourite was Nat King Cole. They both loved Scott Walker's voice, too. I had him blaring on the Dansette from dawn til dusk.
@@hermioneduplessisbellievre515 Your father was right. The crooner scene isn't mine, but I do like Matt Monro's voice. It was nice to see how much Scott Walker liked him as a singer. But for this great video series I wouldn't have known.
@@hermioneduplessisbellievre515 Frank Sinatra was amazing, but he really was past his prime, both vocally and artistically, by the end of the 60s.
@@matheus5230 he actually had a bit of an artistical resurrection just after Something stupid with his Jobim sessions and the Watertown album. I bet Walker loved them
@@mariuspoppFM That's true, Sinatra still made some great work in the rest of the 60s, in the 60s in general really. It just was a lot more hit-or-miss than his work in the 50s.
Scott Walker is a tough task master.
Talk about an eclectic mix! Snoopy vs the Red Baron, Strawberry Fields Forever and Release Me!
Thank you for your videos and subs. As a non-english person, I find it really useful for learning new interesting words from videos
The spring of 1967! They had the whole summer of love 💖 ahead of them.
I wish I had been there. I didn’t come into the world until the summer of the next year just as the sixties were beginning to lose their swing but I wish I had been a teenager in the mid sixties.
Like the Apostle Paul, I feel like I was “one born out of due time ... “
I was born in 63 so don't remember much at all unfortunately. I do remember, just about seeing Hey Jude on tv and one of my sisters playing the Overlanders version of Michelle. But, God I'd have loved to have actually been there.
He is the first white artist in the 1960s who has openly disliked Otis Redding. 99% of them thought he was like God
Because Otis was a god 😉
I think he was right. Wilson Pickett records of the time sounded much better. No doubt that Redding was a great singer and performer but, like Walker, I really dislike the sound of those records. Way too dry and uptight for my ears. For me, it's good to hear any rockist holier-than-thou artist or song being taken to task.
@@nathalieplum2137 Because he died. Then it became canon, and hands-off.
His only hit on the pop chart in the US was posthumous - Dock O The Bay
Scott recorded Plastic Palace People one of the most beautiful songs ever, so i can forgive him not liking Otis lol.
Kathy Kirby also did a lovely cover of that Matt Monro song Where In The World.
Another superb upload.
There really was a lot of garbage that nevertheless became popular. We tend to only remember the gems when we think back on the 60’s but this channel exposes all the dross too.
Two renditions of "This is My Song"
Music in the 60s was fun, nonetheless. Whether good or bad, it wasn’t taken so seriously. Love this channel!
A lot of that garbage was pushed fraudulently by some very shady folk on to radio stations.
The 60's weren't far removed from the 50's and these record charts show it. One era kind of blended into the next, at least in Britain. American pop/rock music of the same era staked out a stark "youth only" place for itself. sexdrugsrockandroll" The Doors,Byrds, Seeds, Moby Grape, Love, Buffalo Springfield, Jefferson Airplane, etc. There are positives and negatives about both waves of musical evolution I suppose. There's something quaint, I can now say as an older person, about the way that Britain was inclusive in their approach to catering to musical tastes for the young and not so young folks back then. Irrepressible politeness.
Survivor bias. I agree
what a fabulous archive. this stuff is gold
"Puppet on a String" DID win the Eurovision Contest. I like Paul Mauriat's rendition.
That was funny
And the germans loved it...
I honestly can't believe what he said about Otis. Absolutely unbelievable.
It's pretty unbelievable but, if you think about it, it's not that surprising coming from Scott Walker because he had a truly odd music taste. Certainly very different from what most people his age were iistening to, He loved crooners, Spector's Wall of Sound records, French Chanson and other kinds of european music. I guess that's the reason why his first solo records were so unique. And then in the 90s/00s he recorded some of the weirdest, most advantgarde records of those decades.
@@YesterdaysPapers Very interesting. Did not know any of this.
Brilliantly unbelievable. I love hearing rockist sacred cows being taken to task. And I agree with him.
Loved this,
Scott didn’t like Otis, well nobody’s perfect lol.
I don't think I've ever heard anyone say they didn't like Otis Redding
Hahaha! Even Scott Walker can be wrong!
@@YesterdaysPapers you can't be about your own subjective opinion.
I love this man.
Good reviews here from a very savvy musician. His comments on the soul scene are very interesting. I like Otis but Wilson was edgier. It would have been controversial at that time to criticise Redding that vehemently and I’ve never heard anyone do it. I’m really impressed that he liked Arnold Layne because it’s quite a niche recording
I don’t know who Scott Walker is but he is on point - upvoting Syd Floyd, praising the Mamas & Papas but dissing Ottis Redding, hippie soul music and mid life crisis Sinatra. A great review 😎
You don't know Scott Walker ? I can't believe it .....
@@michaelluning8818 I dont know him either.
Well, I like Otis Redding but maybe that's just the soul hippie in me talking.
Hey Matt, over time Walker earned the same unofficial title as your granddad had, only updated.
Pop/rock's "Father of Existentialism."
If you don't know who Scott Walker is, then I almost envy you in discovering him. I've been a fan since 1965 and his oeuvre is mindboggling. Please explore. You won't be disappointed.
Interesting to see the Penny Lane/Strawberry Fields Forever single in the number one spot where it belongs ahead of Release Me here on the Melody Maker chart. As many Beatle fans are aware, that single (arguably the Beatles greatest) was held out of the number one spot on the main UK chart Record Retailers by the Humperdinck song, one of the great injustices in history of pop.
I recall reading that Penny Lane/Strawberry Fields actually sold more, but because of some technical rule Release Me was put ahead of it.
@reginaldperiwinkle: George Martin talked to us about this on his "Making of Sgt. Pepper Tour". He deeply regretted his choice to choose these two tracks as a single, because that would, by Beatles standards at the time, automatically exclude them from the album (Buyers were not supposed to pay for the same tracks twice by early Epstein/Martin-standards).
The reason why that single didn't go to the top was that it was issued as a Double-A-Side, meaning that each track was counted individually. Thus, they landed on No.2, despite in reality outselling Engelbert (Single-A-Side) by almost twice as many copies sold.
So, only a defeat if you think in Beatles-terms, and certainly a weak "win" for Humperdinck (George Martin literally cringed just by mentioning his" Song" 😝)
Agreed. Like Joe Dolce's "Shaddappa your face" kept Ultravox's "Vienna" from number 1.
Off topic but Let's spend the night together by the stones deserved a better spot...it was better than a lot of those songs on that chart. Did it became a number one single at some point?
@@cinematicpassages8884 "Let's Spend the Night Together" made it to number 3 in the UK as part of a double A sided single with "Ruby Tuesday". You can see by the parenthesis in it's listing here that it was at number 18 the week prior so was on the way down obviously, even the biggest hits have to make their way down eventually.
A friend introduce to Scott Walker's Climate for Hunter.
Into this day I hold it 4 one of my top ten ---
His partner John Maus in California taught Carl Wilson how to play guitar! Trivia
And Gary Leeds went Trick or Treating in Beverley Hills and knocked on the door of Judy Garland. Little Liza wanted to go T or T'ing with them! Trivia straight from Gary's mouth. LOL.
He did a great job, Carl one of the most underrated guitarists in history. If you disagree, please show me how well you play the chords that brother Brian came up with!
That was so cool. I really enjoyed this
Glad you enjoyed it, James.
First comment again on the world wide web’s coolest channel!!!!
Thanks!
The Mamas and The Papas,great voices,great songs
Scott Walker had a great voice and went on to make some interesting indie records.
So he is a good judge here!
I was about 10 when Puppet On A String was a huge hit in New Zealand - I couldn't stand it either.
I agree with everything he said.
I swear I thought I was the only soul fan who didn’t care much for Otis Redding. I was INSANE for “Dock of The Bay” as a kid-and the rest of my life-but nothing else seemed as good. I guess it’s just a commentary that a great singer is only as good as the song itself is.
Woohoo! Syd getting appreciation
Really talented musicians have a complete different perspective on music as none musicians. These reviews are always interesting, they oust each other out. Slagging off Otis Reading & Sinatra. mint.
I love this channel! Particularly love your production style. A triumph! Cheers ~
Thanks!
Pity Scott didn’t have a side gig as a staff reviewer back in the day. Cheeky then, fascinating now.
Hé did write some articles in the music magazines of the day.
Oh, how cool to know Scott loved Arnold Layne lol thanks for sharing
Cool, I would love to see more top 50 charts of the times!
I have that exact Sandie Shaw record... I bought it cos I liked the sleeve.
"How dare they ?" ,lol !!!
Did Otis steal his girlfriend or something? Damn.
excellent..the chart list was great
He's a funny guy
Man, the chart for that week in 1967 was BURSTING with classics! There’s no wonder this present generation cites the 1960s and 70s as the apex eras for music.
Nice compliment for Peter Knight. I believe he was the arranger on Days of Future Past.
These are fun as hell. Great pics and footoge too. Voice-over is naff tho. Subbed.
He's my hero..and spot on about Matt Monro who is a 1000 times better than Sinatra, as is proved by the latter's karaoke attempt at Portrait Of My Love by the former
very few were better than early sinatra...before he destroyed his voice with all the boozing
@@thewkovacs316 Actually, many were.. he was very VERY smoke and mirrors. Always used arrangers that gave him huge pauses between phrases and hated Elvis owing to the speed he could sing at. Also barely left mid-range
Scott is a hard grader.
Oh Scott, you were so wrong about 'Puppet on a String'!
Keep it coming!
Thank you very much, Yesterday's Papers.
I just want to say to Scott Walker that I'm so sorry that I do like the Sandie Shaw song ''Puppet on a string'' 1:19 I'm really ashamed of myself.
Germany loved it, too!
@@YesterdaysPapers 😂👌🤗
That's what makes this great... It's at the time.
Keep them coming Yesterday's Papers!
Scott was pretty consistent with rating the really strong singles like Pink Floyd, Mamas And The Papas vs the 'good but not great' ones like Mindbenders and Keith. But of course I expected him to rate Matt Munroe the highest since Munroe is another adult pop crooner like himself but Scott overall is good at picking out a great tune, no matter what style. That '67 chart listing was cool. It was great to see obscure but great records like Soft Machine's 'Love Makes Sweet Music ' and Keith Shields 'Hey Gyp' in the Top 50. BTW, who plays that Mellotron instro at the end?
I recorded the Strawberry Fields-inspired mellotron song at the end. I recorded it to go along with another video I made a few months ago and I used it here again.
@@YesterdaysPapers You did it yourself?! So you have your own Mk 2 Mellotron? I'm impressed :)
Funny considering Kevin Ayers and Syd Barrett were cut from the same cloth
Can’t believe Scott didn’t dig Adge Cutler and The Wurzels. What’s not to like? I could easily have seen him covering a couple of their tunes. I suppose they were a bit ahead of the game with their unique blend of psychedelic, scrumpy cider infused country rock😅
fantastic!
Wow, puppet on a string was the signature song of Sandie Shaw And she won with the song nyahhh nyahh Mr. Walker
Sandie Shaw would never call it her "signature song". She hated and hates it. Personally, I love it. My auntie bought it for me from a Woolies bargain bin in 1973 when I was 5! I can understand Shaw and Walker's cynicism though. It's very oompa!
Great video thanks that was hilarious!! How about one on PJ Proby getting banned for splitting his trousers!
Hey, that would be pretty cool! Maybe I'll make a video about that in the future.
@@YesterdaysPapers cool, it was a massive scandal in 1965, on stage at the Castle Hall in Croydon!
He was on the money with 'Arnold Layne,' very much off it with Otis Redding, but quite right about Sandie Shaw's worst single. And a fellow Matt Monro admirer.
Sandie Shaw agrees with him
he was insane even then
Wow, I had no idea Scott Walker hated Otis Redding! By the way, not to be a pest, but Scott Walker nee Engel was born in the States and had a slight Midwestern accent
"How dare they? Take it off..." 😂😂😂
It is both shocking and entirely predictable that Scott couldn’t get with Otis. He was wrong there. I wonder if that opinion ever changed.
This video is a gem. I imagine Scotty with a drink in hand - and several already imbibed - just roasting his industry peers. ‘Twas a fun listen.
Based.
That was mighty harsh on Frank; OUCH!
Scott Walker likes Pink Floyd...it was a great day to me,and Strawbeery Fields #1
I had a really good laugh over what he said about Frank Sinatra. he was right puppet on a string was a big hit in Germany and everywhere else for that matter
Great!
Thanks for another great edition. I liked the little extra inclusion of the top 50 for the week - the pseudo-Strawberry Fields music was cool, too. Do you have the name of it?
The Strawberry Fieds-inspired bit doesn't really have a name. It's something I recorded for another video a few months ago and decided to use it again here. Glad you liked it!
@@YesterdaysPapers Cool, I thought it sounded familiar from another video. It’s a great piece, you hit the nail on the head in terms of the sound of the time.
I wrote previously that I loved your network quality production work and I’m equally in favor of your music. Is it available for licensing?
Yes, that Strawberry Fields bit at the end is fantastic.. I'm listening to it and thinking, wow, haven't heard this before! I've noticed that the stars reviews of the day were really well tuned in and probably more informed possibly of artists of today. I was impressed when Scott was talking about the 3 string arrangers in the UK back then. I'm also amazed when you look at the top 30 and look at the amount of sheer talent and the songs that we have listened to for an eternity! Love it, thanks for all the uploads 😊
Lost me when he said Otis Redding wasn't good. hahaha. Uhhhh. Ok, bro....
I agree with him.
@@blackmore4 You agree that Otis Redding wasn't good? Ok.......To each his/her own, I suppose.
@@dcmitchell8008 I think Redding had a great voice and was a brilliant live performer. However, I don't like the sound of his records much - too dry and the chords are all pretty dull. What I like about Walker _daring_ to criticise his 'Day Tripper' cover (and even a lot of Redding's fans do the same) is that it's refreshing to hear someone criticise one of rock's sacred cows.
@@blackmore4 very well spoken
Is there one for december 1967? I’d love to hear what they had to say about Tin Soldier by Small Faces, my all time favorite tune!
My sister had Tin Soldier and the other Small Faces records. Our shared bedroom was covered in Walker Brothers, Small Faces, Scott Walker and Steve Marriott pictures. The Dansette was playing mostly Small Faces and Walker Brothers records all the time.
For me, the Small Faces best single. Brilliant.
Agreed!
AFTERGLOW! 🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧
@@maurice8607 I prefer Itchycoo Park
Can stand Otis but likes Wilson. Cool, I'm the same.
interesting that strawberry fields/penny lane is number one in this chart
When Pink Floyd was known as “the”Pink Floyd
Some people are really getting themselves torqued up over the whole Otis Redding thing. After all, it's just one man's opinion, no more (or less) valid than anyone else's. No artist universally connects with everyone - After all, I know a number of people who don't like The Beatles (the horror!). And to be honest, it really wasn't one of Redding's better efforts, anyway.
Indeed
Yeah, I’m a huge Otis fan, but this is one of his worst efforts.
"i used to love this song & i still do"
that about covers it then
1st rate as usual - what's the tune played over the chart rundown, if you don't mind? Noel Gallagher clearly appropriated it for Go Let It Out
It's something I recorded to go along with another video I made a few months ago and I used it here again. Very inspired by "Strawberry Fields Forever", obviously!
@@YesterdaysPapers Cheers - I really enjoyed it
Which song hasn’t Noel appropriated yet ? 😋
Thats is FUCKING HILARIOUS!
Its striking how dismissive , snotty and pompous many of the householdnames were in their youth when it came to reviewing fellow popstars/musicians work back in the day. It wasnt much nicer then ...on the contrary. They were as though as any modern day hotshot in whatever genre. This is a marvellous channel - thanks for making these videos! I love them.
The "Flower Girl" came out in '67, and it is one of my favorite pop songs of all time. But I'm sure there was, and still are, rock snobs that would look down their nose at it.
Why, they sound ... just like the commenters on UA-cam!
Not pompous, honest
People back then were so critical
That's why music was better
Anyone that can say Otis Redding is crappy and his records are so bad loses any respect in my book.
I read in a biog’ that Pink Floyd’s Syd Barrett got his trademark Telecaster off Scott
Arnold Layne! great!
