Burt Bacharach, in my opinion is one of the best composers and writers of "easy listening" of the 1960's decade (and I was born in '61!). Even as young as I was, whenever I heard any of his "artwork" (even if I didn't know who he was or who created them) there was an honesty, sincerity in the lyrics that sparked a resonant chord in me. I never thought about it until recently. To love the same type of music now as I did when a child says a lot. While the instrumentals were flawless, the words he wrote took a very thoughtful amount of time, unlike the empty, profit grabbing drivel we hear now (take your pick). To end on a good "note" listening to his music, as well as sung by various artists, (which also shows how versatile his music is) effected me close to a spiritual moment.
