Burt Bacharach RIP

[JohnnyTheFox]

"American popular music has lost a giant. According to his publicist, Burt Bacharach died Wednesday due to natural causes at his Los Angeles home with family at his side. He was 94".

"Bacharach composed an astonishing number of hit songs over the decades: "Say A Little Prayer." "Walk On By." "What The World Needs Now." "Raindrops Keep Falling on My Head." That's just a handful of his music — and he won Grammys, Emmys and Oscars. Burt Bacharach's melodies are seared in the memories of generations of listeners".

Easily one of the greatest song writers in our lifetimes. RIP.

Raindrops Keep Falling on My Head was my favorite of his. IIRC, that was in Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid.

RIP, BB

NO one can say he did not have a full life.

So many of his songs are part of popular culture
