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...

"Like a grain of sand that wants to be a rolling stone...."
Once heard never forgotten !

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.......

The haunting and beautiful.... 'Look Up Again'...

Paul,
Thanks, great clip of Burt and Magnus "I've started so i'll finish" Magnusson. Here's to many more!

(Magnusson was the original presenter of the long running UK quiz show Mastermind).

Priceless piece of footage of Burt rehearsing the musicians in 'Nikki' taken from an early seventies TV special 'Burt Bacharach and Associates'.....

Thank you Paul, that's a priceless clip....you can almost feel Burt's pain
And Burt's not the only one, countless singers have "fluffed" it.

Burt's music changed my life and I can never thank him enough.
My condolences to all Burt's family and friends.
A huge loss.
