Lesser known song from Burt & Hal........


"blue"

Thanks for posting that, Blue. I think I heard it once, some years ago - pobably right on this board. I love the piano fills and riffs in it; very Bacharach. Sounds like maybe it was him playing. There's something about these songs - right from the get-go, you know it's one of his. The chords, the rhythm, the unexpected phrasing... I guess it's genius because it's so hard to come by!

Thanks Steve,
It does sound very much like Burt at the piano.
