It's interesting to note that even though the 1960s included a period that's been described as the British Invasion, music actually flowed both ways in those days. A good example would be an American trio called the Walker Brothers that reached its highest popularity in Great Britain, hitting the top of the charts in 1965 with "Make It Easy On Yourself." But the guys weren't exactly what they seemed. California-born Scott Engel, Gary Leeds, and John Maus were not related at all, but when they decided to try their luck in England in the mid-1960s they [...]
This is kinda exciting, a Walker Brothers clip I've never seen before...via www.dangerousminds.net
This series has noted a couple of hundred musicians' deaths. Not many have caused me so much sadness as that of Gil Scott-Heron. Never mind that the man was a drug addict, and that he once wrote a homophobic song. He was a poet, and he set his poetry to glorious music. He was the Bob Dylan of the ghetto. I hope that with his dying breath, Scott-Heron appreciated the fact that astronauts were just then making a final journey and the US president has introcuded health care reform he was demanding in Whitey On The Moon).

Photo by Ella Nash Niteflights are a band from London that attract and charm with the infectious sound of indie pop and ensnare with the twisting, sharp rhythms and arrangements of post-punk. The band draws their name from the Walker Brothers' great, dark beauty of a final album, 1978's Nite Flights . Although the band's music doesn't actually contain any of the dark undertones of their namesake, Niteflights certainly shares a bit of the urgency found in album tracks "Shutout" and "Fat Mama Kick." There's an interesting balance [...]
Filed under: Twisted Tales Michael Ochs Archives / Getty Images It's largely forgotten today: Smack in the middle of Beatlemania, there were three kids from California who actually had a bigger fan club than the Fab Four in the UK. The Walker Brothers , as they were known, sang dramatic ballads with cavernous orchestral accompaniment, and for a brief period in the mid-1960s they were, improbably enough, the brightest stars in England -- the reverse British Invasion.

The L.A. indie band craft two slow-burning narratives that darkly intertwine on this Walker Brothers cover.
I'm staring at a pile of work. I just declared to the other sweats that I'd be on posting hiatus no less than two hours ago; but here I am, psyched on this cover and video. It can also be viewed as very touching tribute to John Maus, aka John Walker of The Walker Brothers who passed away on May 7th, 2011. I came across this song whilst watching the 2009 biopic Bronson with my bro slamstorky , and was totally down with it being the background music as I watched a nude "England's [...]
Tenía 67 años y llevaba en la música desde finales de los 50. Atrás quedan los tiempos en los que tuvo que cambiar su original nombre John Maus por John Walker para esconder sus 17 años y poder tocar en los garitos de Los Ángeles. El pasado sábado 7 de mayo un cáncer de hígado acabó con su vida. Su trayectoria musical está ligada al grupo Walker Brothers , que en los años 60 viajó desde Estados Unidos para triunfar en Reino Unido, al contrario que lo que hicieron los Beatles o los [...]
Filed under: News GAB Archive/Redferns John Walker [pictured, far left], one of the founding members of legendary 60s group the Walker Brothers, has died at the age of 67. A spokesperson for the late singer confirmed that he died on Saturday, May 7, after fighting liver cancer for six months. Born John Maus, he formed the Walker Brothers with unrelated members Scott Engel and Gary Leeds in 1964. Like Jimi Hendrix , the Walker Brothers [...]
Let's state the obvious first: Rebecca Black's Friday does not represent an acme moment in the annals of popular music. I am even inclined to agree with those who suggest the song is quite awful, especially in its excess of autotuning. It sounds like the theme song for a particularly hyperactive Japanese game show. My remaining days will not be diminished by the absence of Friday on my iPod. But those people with whom I'm inclined to agree are not the target audience, many of whom dislike the song as well. Black's target audience has a crush on [...]
Aside from having the coolest name of any punk-leaning Chicago-area band since Big Black, Smoking Popes have been blessed with core fan base that refused to quit on the outfit. When leader Josh Caterer pulled the plug on the Popes in 1998, it came little more than a year after releasing what might have been [...]
One of the best songs ever when I haven't heard it in a while.
La primera palabra que se puede decir no sólo de este disco, sino de la personalidad, de la carrera entera del legendario músico británico Scott Walker es "espectral". Y por espectral debemos entender casi todo. La voz de Walker, la temática del disco, la organización de cada uno de los temas, la densidad de ciertos temas particulares, el aire glacial que flota entre cada una de las conexiones: de los discos de Scott Walker, ciertamente, el más revelador, el que comienza el mito, casi, es el quinto disco del cantautor, Scott 4 de 1969 .

I found The Impossible Dream:: The Story Of Scott Walker And The Walker Brothers to be an entertaining read. The book details the groups own invasion of Britain, while the more well known mid-sixties British Invasion was transpiring in America. Anthony Reynolds offers good insight into the group consisting of John (Maus), Gary (Leeds) and Scott (Engel), detailing their unique personalities and respected roles, the jazz influence in their records, and their falling in out of the spotlight. There's also the reforming in the mid-seventies for one more nice single in "Regrets." Particularly interesting is the movement through [...]
