RIP Burt Bacharach, dies at age 94

When it comes to popular music, Burt Bacharach is one of my favorite songwriters. When it comes to pop music, his music was about as good as it gets.

Every now and then I find an indie band that obviously loves his songs as much as I do.

Contrary to popular Boomer sentiments, good music is still being made today. But this was a template for a lot of great American music we take for granted.

I also love Dionne Warwick’s voice. I think she did it best. Much respect to her, as well as lyricist Hal David, who wrote the words for Bacharach’s biggest hits.
