Scott Walker, experimental pop hero, dies aged 76 Scott Walker, one of the most innovative and enduring songwriters of the 20th century, has died aged 76.Walker was born Noah Scott Engel in Hamilton, Ohio in 1943, and grew up in California. In 1964, he teamed up with John Maus – who was naming himself John Walker – and became the duo the Walker Brothers. Their drummer Gary Leeds was a veteran from the nascent “swinging London” pop music scene, and persuaded them to relocate to London, where Walker has been based ever since.They scored two No 1 hits with Make It Easy On Yourself and The Sun Ain’t Gonna Shine (Anymore), and their dapper, hirsute image earned them heartthrob status – their fanclub once had more members than the Beatles.
