Burt Bacharach RIP

[Barry]

Not everyone's cup of tea, but I was saddened to hear of Burt Bacharach's passing at age 94.

Very much mainstream, he did however compose many good tunes that allowed others also to achieve fame and fortune.

RIP Burt.

yes, sad to hear although a good age... wrote a lot of stuff for dionne warwick. i think she is still alive

[Macca]

He was a legend, no doubt about it.

[Enossification]

Truly sad loss to music. Absolutely love the album At This Time.

Take him out of the picture (as in never existed) and a huge chunk of music goes along with him, everything from pop tunes, to movie soundtracks, jazz covers and that Costello album... all gone.

RIP, Burt.
