I was lucky enough to get tickets to see Burt Bacharach in concert at the Royal Festival Hall last night. No star turns just an amazing band and orchestra, three superb singers and the man himself showcasing his fantastic music. Can't believe he is 86 years old and was on stage for 2 hours 20 mins without a break. One of the best gigs ever and a memory to cherish.
My personal favourite of his is The Look of Love (Jack Jones version) followed closely by On My Own (Pattie Labelle and Michael Mcdonald). Burt said his own favourite is Alfie which he sang himself last night - he has never had the best voice but the poignancy brought tears to my eyes. Do you like his music - what's your favourite song?
To think that London, or anywhere else for that matter, does not belong to any one demographic
