Music Stranglers Walk On By 60s covers psychedelic rock punk new wave Burt Bacharach Peaches Golden Brown No More Heroes

"Walk On By" (United Artists, 1978) is a single culled from sessions for the English neo-psych band's third album, BLACK AND WHITE. It sounds like vocalist Hugh Cornwell had no more than a passing familiarity with the lyrics of this '60s pop classic, but no matter: the Stranglers' version is all about instrumental exploration, and it's one of their most atmospheric studio pieces.

Written by Burt Bacharach & Hal David; produced by Martin Rushent

Hugh Cornwell - guitar & lead vocal
Dave Greenfield - keyboards & backing vocal
Jean-Jacques Burnel - bass & backing vocal
