Boy Child: The Best of 1967–1970 is a compilation album by the singer-songwriter Scott Walker. It was released in 1990. The album compiles music that Walker both wrote and recorded on five of his first six studio albums; Scott, Scott 2, Scott 3, Scott 4 and 'Til the Band Comes In. The original release also includes the non-Walker composition "The Rope and The Colt", a French single recorded by the singer for the 1969 film Une corde, un colt. Also included was the 1967 b-side "The Plague". In 2000 the album was re-released under the altered title Boy Child: 67–70 on HDCD with modified track listing and running order. The new version dropped "The Rope and The Colt" and added the Scott 4 track "Angels of Ashes". An expanded double LP version was released on Record Store Day in 2022 which added “Always Coming Back to You”, “30th Century Man, ” and “Angels of Ashes, ” and restored “The Rope and the Colt.” The album artwork included the original Marc Almond liner notes from 1990, Neil Hannon’s contribution from 2000, and exclusive brand-new notes from Jarvis Cocker. It was released a limited edition of 2500 pressed on 180g white vinyl.
