Of all the American symphonic conductors who ever were, they may be no greater jack-of-all-trades: conductor, composer and teacher (especially that last) than Leonard Bernstein.  Certainly, he was…Continue

I heard this song in a commercial recently. I grew up listening to Hall and Oates.

The Carpenter's sing a medley of songs with music written by Burt Bacharach and lyrics written by Hal David.

Hal David, the renowned pop music lyricist whose prolific collaboration with composer Burt Bacharachproduced a wealth of enduringly memorable hits in the 1960s and early ’70s, including “Walk on By,” “What the World Needs Now Is Love” and “Raindrops Keep Fallin’ on My Head,” died Saturday in Los Angeles. He was 91.

Too bad so many talented people get on drugs.  I was especially sad when Janis Joplin and Jimi Hendrix died at 27.  I'm sure there were lots more great music they could have produced.

I love the Mamas and the Papas too. As a wannabe lyricist myself, I find John Phillips was one of the very best, not to mention his skills as a vocal arranger. You can also hear his sure touch in the Beach Boys swan-song hit Kokomo, which he co-wrote. Among my favorites are three lesser-known songs which served as album fillers: 'Dancing bear', 'Once was a time I thought', and 'Safe in my garden'. Anyone know those? Unfortunately, Phillips got caught up in the dark side of the excesses of the rich and famous. He was a chronic hard-drug user and there were also nasty rumors of incest with his drug-addicted daughter. I don't claim to know the truth but no doubt it helps to account for his lack of productivity in later years.
