LPCDreissues: Looking forward to the past

Originally released in 1968, Scott 2" made it all the way to numberone on the "UK pop charts, perhaps the strangest number one hit in pop history. Continuing with his orchestral obsession,Scott 2features 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 originalsScott 2featuressongs by Jacques Brel, Tim Hardin, and Bacharach/David.""
