The Walker Brothers-No Regrets (1975)

Despite being American, the Walker Brothers' fame began in England in the mid-1960s. It all started in 1965 with the success of their first single, "Make It Easy On Yourself," a song composed by Burt Bacharach a few years earlier. The Walker Brothers' voices became classics of 1960s pop during those years, with a style based on the perfect quality and vocal harmonies of the three members of the group: Scott Engel (Scott Walker), vocals and bass; John Maus (John Walker), vocals and guitar; and Gary Leeds (Gary Walker), drums and vocals. Their beginnings date back several years earlier when, after various experiences, they decided to move from California to England. There, in addition to the single "Make It Easy On Yourself," they achieved success with other songs like "My Ship Is Coming In." Their first album, "Take It Easy," also propelled them to triumph, leading to a true Walker Brothers boom. Their most iconic song, "The Sun Ain't Gonna Shine Anymore," and subsequent singles propelled them to the same commercial heights as The Beatles for several years. These singles included "Baby You Don't Have to Tell Me," "Another Tear Falls," "Deadlier Than the Male," "Stay with Me Baby," and "Walking in the Rain." However, this whirlwind of success didn't prevent the group from disbanding after their third album, "Images," released in 1967. Subsequently, none of the three members would achieve the same level of individual success they had enjoyed while together. In 1975, they reunited to record the brilliant "No Regrets," but after that, they never reunited again, remaining immortalized as a fundamental group of the 1960s thanks to their immense talent and perfect vocal harmonies.
