PS
Blame it on the "bossa nova" !!!

Thank you pljms, I did not know about that album ? I've just been listening to to Tony Hatch's "Orchestral" version of "Where Are You Now".......it almost sounds as if Bacharach himself is conducting the orchestra....."Very Dramatic" !!!!!!!! "blue" PS Sounds ...

One of the saddest songs I've ever heard.............

The "First Tycoon Of Teen"......complete with "frilly" shirt !!!!

Hi Steveo, Wonderful clip !!! You mentioned the Spector "Wall Of Sound" style, the Walker Brothers did a terrific version of Bacharach and David's "Another Tear Falls" incorporating that very sound !!! Here's another track that's very heavily "influenced" by Spector wit...

Hi Steveo,
Another little oddity from the sixties !!!

Hi Steveo,
Here's one of my favorite intro's.....simple, yet very effective !!!


"blue"

When I first heard this song I was convinced it was by Bacharach/David
but I was wrong (as usual).....it's by Mark Lindsay and Artie Butler
great arrangement, and a "haunting" performance from Dionne.......


"blue"

As "grooverider" rightly mentioned, this is almost "unbearable"
to listen to....

"blue"
ps
God Bless.............we miss you Dusty.

Steveo,
I'm not ashamed to admit it, but I wept as well !
Only great music can have that effect !!!

Take Care,

Hi Steveo,
This music sounds like it's from "another planet"....
From the incredible imagination of Mr Burt Bacharach !!!
Never heard anything like it !!!




Take Care,
