“I just want to be like Scott Walker,” Anna Higgins tells me. Later, she quotes from a profile of the musician to clarify what she means: “like Andy Williams reinventing himself as Stockhausen.” This description, offered by Simon Hattenstone, encapsulates Walker’s career trajectory — from a member of the sixties pop group The Walker Brothers, to reclusive solo artist and experimentalist prior to his death in 2019.
