I'm reading the word "enigmatic" a lot in obituaries for him - great voice.

Quite shocked tbh. One of my icons from the 60s.

RIP Scott. His work in later life, in my view, was far more interesting than his 60s pop songs. A very creative and individual musician.

I wasn't aware of his later work but just found this little ditty.

A bit different, innit? Turned my brain to mulch.

That's very good, once you've cracked the pop market there aren't many places left to go for most performers, but some do find an alternative avenue for their expression.

Quite amazing how he made the musical journey from being a teen pop idol with this astonishing Jack Jones crooner type voice to making bleak experimental avant garde music about death and isolation. 'Climate of Hunter' is a brilliant, disturbing album.

He had this powerful soaring voice making delivery seem effortless. RIP Scott
