Well, you've read the notes, the notes went back to Bacharach, and now it is time for you to post until the Bacharach cows come home.

Well, I checked my e-mail and my first Sunday in the Park with George music rehearsal will be Saturday, March 4. Then, not again until March 25. After that, we'll start regular rehearsals in April.

Lot of time to prep!

Was just listening to that Promises Promises cast album. I like the version of the title cut from that production. Was great to see live.

I interviewed Sean Hayes by phone during that run, and he was a bit snappish. Then the next day I saw him at a hamburger place and I did not disturb him.

Then I was looking for Lost Horizon soundtrack on Spotify, but only could find a version of “The World is a Circle” sung by a Vicky Calver. Well, whoever she is, she did a swell job. So I don’t have to dig out my LP.

Is “Promises, Promises” the shortest title song from any major Broadway musical ever?

Nope...there's Mame, at least.

George, I look forward to hearing all about your rehearsals.

Also looking forward to seeing BK’s book cover and watching SAMI on Amazon Prime in April.

I adored Burt Bacharach.
He was so debonair.

DR Iris · « **Reply #12 on:** February 10, 2023, 01:37:09 AM »

I remember those Martini and Rossi commercials with Burt and Angie.

DR Iris · « **Reply #13 on:** February 10, 2023, 01:38:56 AM »

His songs were everywhere in the late 60’s, and early 70’s.

Been listening to many of his compositions over the last few hours.

I had friends who worked in several restaurants that he frequented in L.A.

They all said that he was incredibly kind, generous and friendly.

A true gentleman.

For anyone on the Facebook, I just posted three Bacharach and David songs sung by Guy Haines.

DR Iris · « **Reply #20 on:** February 10, 2023, 02:13:41 AM »

I’m not on Facebook, but would love to hear them.

DR Iris · « **Reply #21 on:** February 10, 2023, 02:16:49 AM »

The shooter in my area has still not been arrested.

Police are “negotiating” with him.

He has already shot 2 officers and stolen their police car.

DR Iris · « **Reply #22 on:** February 10, 2023, 02:20:32 AM »

This is taking place in a very safe, wooded suburb of Baltimore County.

I shall refrain from posting my true thoughts on this situation.

It is outrageous.

Oh, I do have Broadway Sings the Best of Burt Bacharach, so I am able to listen to one song by Guy Haines.😊

DR Iris · « **Reply #25 on:** February 10, 2023, 02:51:51 AM »

Just received word that the shooting suspect is in custody.

DR Iris · « **Reply #26 on:** February 10, 2023, 02:53:41 AM »

The reason that it took so long was because the police officers did not wish to harm him.

I have much on my agenda today. After kitty cleanup, I must begin my IRS prep, so I will begin the Big Printout, in which I will print invoices for all relevant purchases for 2022. I have not yet received my Social Security 1099 yet, and that bothers me.
