The Old Man's Back Again (Dedicated to the Neo-Stalinist Regime) by Scott Walker

#DictatorsWeek This was Scott Walker's reaction to the Warsaw Pact invasion of Czechoslovakia in 1968 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Warsaw_Pact_invasion_of_Czechoslovakia in order to stop political reforms there. It's one of my favourites by him. The album it's on was originally released under his birth name Noel Scott Engel and failed to chart on its release in 1969”

Twisted 60s baroque pop. About Stalin. What more could you ask for.

No reason for this except hearing it on LaLa's show on @BBC6Music6 this week and thinking 'that is ruddy ace'   9
