Re: Audiofile Burt?

Jim, You might also like to check out this 5 disc set....it contains all of Burt's A&M albums and more, the remastered sound quality is a "revelation" ! The only problem is the ludicrously high asking price. https://www.discogs.com/sell/release/8702927?ev=rb Pricey but precious. 'blue'

Re: Kennedy Center Honors: Dionne Warwick

Congrats to Dionne !

It's a great shame Burt and Hal never got the honour, but it is what it is I guess. :?

Re: Steve Allen's Music Room in 1983 with Burt, Carole & Tony Newley

When Steve Allen brought out two albums recorded by Carole... why no mention of 'Sometimes Late At Night' the album she recorded with Burt in 1981?

Paul, the song you mentioned...

Re: Songs of Bacharach & Costello 4-album collection in 2023

Paul, thank you for that stunning Herb Alpert track!
I remember Herb once saying "Bacharach's music is simple yet complicated".
Here's another perfect example.......
