SCOTT WALKER: 30 CENTURY MAN is a rare glimpse into the creative world of the most enigmatic figure in rock history. Tracing the undeniable impact Walker has had on popular music through interviews with some of his biggest, highest-profile fans, we explore his fascinating trajectory. From jobbing bass player on LA’s Sunset Strip to his domination of the British pop scene that began in the swinging summer of 1965 and his transformation into a boundary-pushing avant-garde composer of true genius, here is an uncompromising and serious musician working at the peak of his powers. At the age of sixty-three, Walker returns to the studio to create what would become his greatest artistic statement yet—his acclaimed 2005 album “The Drift”—and we are invited to experience this process with him.
