Scott Walker's First Studio Album Since 2006's The Drift!
Deluxe Double LP With 36-Page Booklet!
Scott began writing new material around 2009 - whilst also scoring the ROH 2s Duet For One Voice ballet - recording it sporadically over the following three years. The end result is Bish Bosch, a tauter but more colorful experience than The Drift, with greater emphasis on processed, abrasive guitars, digital keyboards and thick silences.
Aided again by co-producer Peter Walsh and joined by a regular core of musicians, Ian Thomas (drums), Hugh Burns (guitar), James Stevenson (guitar), Alasdair Malloy (percussion) and John Giblin (bass). Musical director Mark Warman also played a prominent role, both as conductor and keyboardist, while guests include trumpeter Guy Barker and pedal steel guitarist BJ Cole, who worked on three of Scotts mid-seventies LPs. For tracks SDSS1416+13B (Zercon, A Flagpole Sitter), Dimple and Corps de Blah, Scott drafted in an orchestra, recording them in The Hall at Air Studios.
