Oooooooooooh it comes ever closer. There's a September 10, 2007 release date on the documentary (watch the trailer) about Scott Walker (Allmusic) called 30 Century Man, and frankly, I can't bloody wait:- a guy playing a side of meat as percussion
- a big wooden box erected to record the sound of somebody slamming a drink down
- Scott Walker talking on camera (!)
The hype is er, hyperbolic:
"" the most influential and enigmatic figure in rock history "".. and ..
""rock's most fascinating and elusive outsider""(excluding Jandek, I presume).
But nonetheless, exciting.
...
As Jo helpfully pointed out, I AM going for drinks with the Wellingtonista crew tomorrow night. So despite my wailing and my woe about the (good-)heath of my liver, all is not lost. That is, if I can shake this nasty lurg. And, I do have to work all weekend. Arrrggghhh.......
