In the Goldfinger book, Bond is not captured so much as shanghaied, along with Tilly Masterton, as Goldfinger’s “secretary,” which emphasizes their equivalence as protégés of the master. Male secretaries were still common in Britain, a point leading to some comic interaction on Mad Men between the ladies of Sterling Cooper and Lane Pryce’s male secretary when London agency PPL takes over. In Dr. No, the book makes much of Honeychile’s muscles and “boyish behind,” leading Cyril Connelly to ask “What on Earth was he thinking?” The Spy Who Loved Me is the only book narrated by the Bond Girl, with results universally regarded as dire (she even gets his title wrong; as noted above, he’s a secret agent, not a “spy”).

Felix Leiter hardly counts; although he might be thought of as an attempt to give Bond an American partner for the bigger US market, he is, in accord with his CIA background, a cipher; his numerous beatings and dismemberments suggest not so much a stand-in for Bond as a sadistic figure of fun, a Judy to the villain’s Punch; the movies have fun with him being played by a different actor each time, in line with his nonentity.

An echo of Spengler, who said in 1932—when you could say this in a book published by Knopf and favorably reviewed in Time—“Jazz music and Negro dancing perform the Dead March for a great Culture.”

The definite biography is still Jeremy Reed’s stalker classic, Scott Walker: Another Tear Falls (London: Creation Books, 1998). Although outdated by Scott’s recent “rediscovery” by the hipsters, and by no means even aware of the Aryan motifs outlined here, it nicely conveys Scott’s ability to captivate and obsess his fans, even a man some have called England’s greatest living poet; which is probably why the fans hate it.

A 2006 film by Stephen Kijak, featuring interviews with such illustrious fans as David Bowie (who might be called Scott Lite, having chosen a series of rabidly shifting stage personae rather than seclusion), Brian Eno who helps connect us with our New Age/Ambient theme), Marc Almond, Ute Lemper, and Jarvis Cocker.

See the discussion of “bent” and “blue” notes in Julian Lee’s essay, although he fails to see their significance as Daniélou does: “The success of African American music, with its ‘blue’ notes so alien to equal temperament and therefore so expressive, is not due merely to fashion. It shows the need for an understandable musical system, for logical and true intervals that can remove the veil of inexpressive insipidity which temperament spreads over even the most impassioned movements of the greatest symphonies” (Music and the Power of Sound, p. 16).
