The Walker Brothers

[deerwan]

Not knowing much about them at all, I picked up the Nite Flights lp
around the time it came out and listened to it a lot.,, excellent
listen and a Euro-progressive style.

Believe it or not I did not hear of them until Tilt came out by Scott Walker in 1995.
A friend mentioned the lp and from there I went back to listen to the Walker Bothers and Scott's solo lps.
I found Tilt challenging but very interesting.
I recall their hit 'Sun Aint Gonna Shine Anymore' from the old days but never really paid attention to the band.
I really like Scott Walker 3 and 4....and the Walker Bros best of lps are worth having for sure.
A band that I think many people over in the US missed out on even though they were from LA originally.
Decent wiki page on them

My fascination with 60s Bond style films Sparked my interest in this film initially only to be so teased because I'd forgot the name of the film, the main actor (Richard Johnson), or the character he played (Bulldog Drummond), so I couldn't believe it when this English flick was performed by the Walker Brothers:

Never seen that film....looks like good fun......my favorite Richard Johnson film is The Haunting from 1963.
Nice song from the Walker Brothers.
