Some of their greatest recordings. Just listen to the voice of Scott (ballad lovers take note) John and Gary both have their own sounds. It's about time they recorded more!!!!!!

.....bummer. Too bad the label (One Way) went broke. All killer here...no filler, unlike virtually ALL of the other collections currently available.

these are some of the best songs ever written. please stock up so we can spread the music.

Please go back into production of this so i can have one of my ow

Walker Brothers were a mid 1960's vocal group, heartful of soul, that initially depended upon the illusion that they were Brit Invasion. With mop-tops haircuts and the attitude, they scored with an operatic version of Burt Bacharach's "Make it Easy on YrSelf". Next, another top 10 hit, the sublime tingling "The Sun Ain't Gonna Shine Anymore" Perfect pop for aching teens yearning to shout with a whisper. There were other attempts at singles, none made more than a once/heard tossed over the shoulder and given out as radio station call, win a 45.
Except, Walker Bros. had a fine distinctive vocalist in Scott Engel. Scott made a couple of interesting LPs in the late '60s worth searching for.

This CD has stereo versions of the hits and a great version of an early Randy Newman song, "I Don't Wanna Hear it Any More" covered by Jerry Butler and bunches of others.
