Burt Bacharach RIP

Post by Fun 4 None »

Very sad to hear he passed! An absolutely incredible songwriting legacy. I frequently listen to the Ed Sullivan Carpenters Bacharach medley so I will link that here.



Rest in Peace Burt.

A monster of a composer.

One of those about whom all we could say would still be too little.

"Painted from memory", his and Elvis Costello´s, is one of my all time favorite albums.

Among many, many others, he gave us "Baby it´s you", a song I´ve cherished all my life.

Hope the music will keep on playing.

When Burt and George Martin were in the studio together - magic happens.
