• Source: Lines (The Walker Brothers album)

      • Lines is the fifth studio album by the American pop group The Walker Brothers. The album was released in 1976 and was the second since reforming in 1975. The album failed to chart and neither of its singles, "Lines" and "We're All Alone", met with much success.
      The album was stylistically similar to their 1975 comeback No Regrets, matching the general musical styles of Country and Pop music and marrying them to romantic orchestral arrangements. Aside from "First Day" which was actually written by John Walker under the pseudonym A. Dayam, the album is compiled of non-original compositions. Scott Walker would not contribute new songs to the group until the following album Nite Flights.
