RIP Farewell Burt Bacharach

Two songwriting greats in a week :frowning:

So sad but there will be some great music at the funeral (not meant to be a flippant comment). If they played all his greatest tunes back to back it would go on for hours.

RIP. Can’t imagine a world without his songs.

At the time of writing this KEXP radio (it’s available in Roon) is doing a retrospective and it’s amazing.
Particularly, they’re playing the first or most well known version of a song and then a more modern cover.
More than once I’d thought the cover was the original.
He was everywhere!

Edit: It’s no longer live but it will turn up on the KEXP app in Show Archives: The Morning Show on Feb 9

Legend. R.I.P.

Legend … absolutely.

Bye bye Burt. Good innings at least.
