R.I.P. Burt Bacharach - one of the 20th century's most prolific and well-respected songwriters.

I can’t watch him play because it’s so so cringe. Why does he do those movements? David Foster looks perfectly normal, when h3 plays/ directs

​@@cyndimoring9389 It wasn't a popular collaboration for many Bacharach fans, they felt Costello didn't have the right pedigree. But his voice has enormous character.

In today’s commercial music environment I don’t think people realize just how incredible this is from both a songwriting standpoint but an arranging and performance standpoint. I mean, this collaboration is just amazing.

@@nforne​​⁠that’s illuminating… I had no idea burt fans felt that way. When I first heard this album I thought this has got to be one of the great heartbreak albums of all time, because I can’t fathom the quality of an album that would beat this. I thought costello’s raw intensity was the perfect foil for burt’s sensibilities

With today's news I learned that a few weeks ago the Elvis Costello web site announced a deluxe compilation The Songs of Bacharach & Costello, with several songs and performances in addition to the fantastic Painted from Memory album. They wrote additional songs for a proposed Painted from Memory musical (with book by comedy TV legend Chuck Lorre!). I already have the Sessions at West 54th DVD performance of, and Bill Frisell's The Sweetest Punch reimagining of, Painted from Memory. It's a brillant adult emotional set of songs. RIP Burt Bacharach, great songwriter, composer, arranger, performer over decades! I Say a Little Prayer.

Timesignatures and intervals were always his trademark. There will never be another composer as BURT was. A deep bow and respect for this great, great man! Thank you so much Burt for all the great songs! R.I.P. my music hero! 😢😢

Elvis was probably thinking “I can’t believe I get to write and sing with an icon like Burt”. Not that Elvis hasn’t had success, but Bacharach and David basically defined sixties popular song writing and created multiple masterpieces of songwriting.

For "God Give Me Strength" have a look at Elvis as the song ends and the crowd starts applauding, he really seems as though he was transported to another place during the song and gradually "came back to earth" during the audience response.

That was wonderful. YT suggested the Sonny and Cher reunion after I watched this. I’d love some staff memories on that huge cultural event, maybe Cher can record some thoughts by herself and flog her current main charity. Cher is a uniquely American character. Not only did she think Mount Rushmore was a natural rock formation until she was 18, but she was willing to admit it in a Playboy interview. Who does that? And she’s started charities for the troops and for animals. She used to call C-SPAN’s morning program during the Iraq war to collect money for helmets for the troops that needed them. Thanks.
