Burt Bacharach that are not recognizeable

Post by geoff85 »

Every now and then Burt detoured from his regular formula causing a song to be completely lacking his trademark sound. I would have never known this was Bacharach/David tune.

There are multi-disc sets of songs that Burt wrote before settling into his trademark "style". Only after taking control of the recording sessions for Dionne and discovering that she could sing anything that he could imagine did his own imagination soar giving us what we know today.
Come on, kids; do your homework.

You have to forgive me Blair I was born almost 3 decades after this era. Some of these songs i listen to even my parents dont know so in my case it is literally doing homework.
