• Track Listing

Not only did Brel’s dark, dramatic, evocative songs fascinate Walker, who covered Brel on his first three LPs—but they profoundly influenced his own development as a deeply compelling songwriter. This comp combines Brel’s French-language originals with Scott’s celebrated versions: "Mathilde," "Amsterdam," "Tango Funebre" ("Funeral Tango"), "La Mort" ("My Death"), "Ne Me Quitte Pas" ("If You Go Away") and more! Ace.
