Scott Walker © Chris WalterScott Walker © Chris WalterScott Walker © Chris Walter

Scott Walker who, other than Elvis, has been my all time favourite singer. Scott came to England as part of the Walker Brothers who during their three years of group success were as big as the Beatles. When they split Scott went on to solo success. He always had an incredible talent for finding great songs, and an artist I am proud to have worked with, both as the Walker Brothers
and solo, including the Scott 3 album sleeve. He is still a huge cult figure.The 30 Century Man docu-film is out in 2009 and is very worth seeing, in theatre or on the DVD



Johnny Nash .. Jose Feliciano .. Fleetwood Mac .. Eric Clapton





1969


Amen Corner had a string of hits in the late 1960's. They all lived in a large house in Harrow, just outside London. Singer Andy Fairweather Low amazingly had a Cobra in the front yard , but many a time for a London gig he and Neil would jump into my MGB and have me take them, a lot of fun. Andy has spent the recent years touring with such people as Pete Townsend and with Eric Clapton (including "Unplugged") and Roger Waters . Blue Weaver and Dennis Byryn went on to the Bee Gees for years, Alan Jones went into management, Clive Taylor became a recording engineer and Neil Jones became the chief photographer for his home city of Cardiff (after assisting me for a while !!).
