Album Notes Includes liner notes by Jeffrey Kruger and David Sandison. Fans expecting a collection of vintage Scott Walker are in for a surprise if they buy LOOKING BACK without doing a little research first. Before he was the reigning king of decadent-mope rock in the late '60s and early '70s, Walker was a struggling young singer who, during the late '50s and early '60s recorded numerous attempts at hit singles, some when he was still in high school. As a result, this compilation of previously unreleased material showcases a somewhat less secure Scott Walker, who sings in a much higher register than most fans are used to. However this is still a pretty respectable collection, some of the tracks demonstrating the potential that early promoters must have seen in the young soon-to-be-recluse. Not a great introduction for new fans, who'd probably be better off purchasing SCOTT 3 or IT'S RAINING TODAY, which better showcase Walker's solo work at its most brilliant, LOOKING BACK WITH SCOTT WALKER is a must for rabid fans and completists.
