BB influence on Rumer's Album

Post by Steve Schenck »

This is one of the songs by Rumer on her album that features a new song by Burt . This is not it, but it's a song that has a definite BB influence.

Blue and Steve thank you for those clips! Great to see Sandie Shaw. She handles Bacharach's songs so well and I could literally feel her emerged in 'Trains and Boats and Planes'. It reminded me of what a great song it is.

But Sandie was wearing shoes....
(For those of you who don't remember the 1960-s with great clarity, her trademark was performing barefoot)
Other Sandie Shaw trivia: she was meant to sing the song "It's not unusual", but a little known Welsh miner/guitar player by the name of Thomas Jones did the demo for it, to be presented to Miss Shaw, and the rest is history, as they say.
(They also say "what's up, pussycat whoa-o-o-o-a")

In theory, there is no difference between theory and practice, but in practice, there is.
