THANKS FOR BACHARACH AND BURKE
I don't know what happened to me. I somehow thought the version you offered at the start of this thread was not the one you had offered a while back and which prompted me to say, at the time, that I wasn't too impressed with it (though I was in awe with the one at the show). It is not surprising tha...

Thank you very, very much, Keith. I had a better impression of You've Got It All Wrong before I listened to the two mp3 recordings. Maybe it has to do with the fact that seeing it live is a very different experience. For the last day of the Encores performances I took a friend on his birthday. He wa...

Missed opportunity
Keith Only now did I see your post with links at YouSendIt for Seconds and You've Got It All Wrong (Encores version). Unfortunately, the songs are no longer available. If the chance existed, would you please provide new links? (If not, thanks for the opportunity you've given us.) Dream Sweet Dreamer...

Burt's horse raced yesterday
First, what the LA Times said about the race yesterday. (Sounded like Burt and Jane's horse would be an "also ran.") Then, the race's result. http://www.latimes.com/sports/horseracing/la-spw-insider15dec15,1,5244378.story INSIDER TRADING Sabre Baby makes Inglewood debut By Bob Mieszerski ,...

Long live the Keith!
In regard to this aging controversy I keep thinking of what I've been told is a Japanese saying: "Why do you hate me if I never helped you?" I am deeply grateful to Keith. I think it was extremely unselfish of him to share with us his extremely rare recordings of compositions by our World ...

It seemed like both iTunes and Wal-Mart wouldn't work with a Brazilian address for the credit card. Maybe I am wrong, but then there's the additional issue that to transfer file isn't the most straightforward thing with these two, so I joined eMusic and, though they don't have what I was loooking fo...

Help: Simple Gifts (for a wedding)
Ok, this is definitely off topic. It is not about Bacharach and his work, but about Bacharach fans helping each other on a music-related theme... I am getting married in less than two weeks and would like my fiancee to listen to Simple Gifts, the Shaker hymn (some say it is actually a dance song) Aa...

I would like to ask what you thought of the Houston concert. I wonder if it was different from those that forum participants have been describing (and with which I am familiar). I ask because due to Burt's relaltionship with that orchestra I've been giving some thought to the idea of going to Housto...

And the people were with her

Pacific Coast Highway
http://www.calendarlive.com/music/cl-ca-socalsongs2jul02,0,5971824.story?coll=cl-music-features I just love this song and the excerpt showcased here.
