Re: in London

With Dick VanDyke:


Was it written for a movie? I've been assuming that it was.

Re: Happy Birthday, Master Burt Bacharach!

I guess if I don't sign up for this someone might think I died.

This is an important day in the history of civilization. It certainly changed my life.
Thank you Burt for your tireless efforts, your meticulously crafted compsotions.
I hope this birthday will be one of the best so far.
God bless you!

Re: Additional date for Burt in London

Thanks, Mark! I was (and still am) pretty sure, based on the tour dates at Bacharachonline and what others have said, that the shows are indeed scheduled. I basically was just unhappy with the fact that http://www.southbankcentre.co.uk/venues/royal-festival-hall says nothing about the concert and se...

A couple of days ago, when Barry posted about the extra concert, I went here http://www.southbankcentre.co.uk/venues/royal-festival-hall and, by cliking on "ALL EVENTS AT THIS VENUE", I was able to find Burt. Now it is neither on the first page nor next to the other events, where I found i...

Re: Brazil Tour

Ancelmo Gois' column (O Globo) says Burt said that Ivan is the one he likes the most in Bz. That last picture's footage states the same thing. But this is not fair. I don't think Burt would want to say something that would create a ranking among Brazilian songwriters beyond his often stated preferen...

Re: Put Your Youtube.com Links Here! (if you want)

Hauntingly beautiful, IMO. I would love to listen to all the songs, but I still wish to have them packed as an original (Bdway) cast album. Icing on the cake, Burt would then release his own mainly orchestrted versions as he did with PP on the Make It Easy on Youself album. BTW: I got to listen to H...

Re: Brazil Tour

I've been way too busy. Sorry. Thanks, Djalma. I completely agree with all you said. Anyone who had a heart would surely love this. BTW... as a rule I prefer Ivan doing his songs. Some recordings by him of course are better than others also by him. Fortunately, my favorite recordings are usualy amon...

Re: Brazil Tour

You can travel with Burt... 1 - Choose a year and find the most played songs on radio stations in Brazil in that year. http://www.planetarei.com.br/100anos/index.htm 2 - It seems like Ivan Lins will be a special guest in Rio's concert. IMHO, Ivan is genius. They seem likely to perform The Look Of Lo...

Re: Brazil Tour

Curitiba (4/16)-RIo (4/18)-São Paulo (4/20). Looking forward to watching and listening to Burt live. Better than that: I look forward to saluting and acknowledging the greatness and the tireless efforts of a man that, paraphrasing Marlene Dietrich, I couldn't love and admire very much more. You shou...
