Andrew and grooverider,
Thank you very much for the info !
I never knew "Joanna" was originally composed for a film...
Or that Tony Bennett had ever sang it ?

Hi hereiam, Glad you enjoyed the "Isaac" track ! Thank you for this "new" version.......never heard it before ??? I really like it !.............no idea when it was recorded though ? Can any other members shed any light on the subject ? Here's another version I heard a few years ...

Sound's almost like Isaac's "homage" to Burt !!!

Hi Vincent,
I've been very fortunate to see both Burt and Ennio Morricone
in concert, you cannot beat a "live" show...an "incredible" experience !!!

Take Care,

Enormous,
I fully agree with you !
It also took them long enough to honour this Gentleman !


"Bravo Maestro" !!!!!!!

Steveo, Steve,
If Burt had been born in Britain, he would have been
"Sir Burt Bacharach" by now !!! LOL

Ladies and Gentlemen,
Miss Petula Clark and Mr Tony Hatch !!!!
