Description
Originally released in 1968, ‘Scott 2’ made it all the way to number one on the UK pop charts, perhaps the strangest number one hit in pop history. Continuing with his orchestral obsession, ‘Scott 2’ features over-the-top string and horn arrangements, occasionally veering into dangerously schmaltzy territory. This production style is in drastic contrast to the lyrical content, songs of despair, prostitution, homosexuality, and brutal honesty, indicting the same glamorous and glitzy lifestyle that his baroque pop style emblemizes. Along with many originals ‘Scott 2’ features songs by Jacques Brel, Tim Hardin, and Bacharach/David. Deluxe 180 gram vinyl reissue.
