This week I have been revisiting the strange , wondrous and idiosyncratic world of Howe Gelb , so many magical moments across his albums and this rounds up a few of them quite nicely . Only ever out on CD except in Indonesia where it was also on cassette , obviously 😁

Despite two #1 singles Scotts solo career has kind of overshadowed them but there are some real gems on the Walkers first 3 LPs (as well as some naff covers) This lovely comp is selected to perfection and has all you need.
Only 3 written by Scott but “Archangel” is the pick.❤️🖤

In the first 10 years of his career , 1977-1986 , Elvis was a busy man , he fired out 11 studio albums . In 1985 though he never bothered so they put out a Best Of instead , a jam packed , 9 tracks per side , hectic beast of an album.
All killer , no filler .

“It lay thickly drifted on the crooked crosses and headstones,on the spears of the little gate,on the barren thorns.His soul swooned slowly as he heard the snow falling faintly through the universe and faintly falling,like the descent of their last end,upon all the living and the dead.”
