Burt Bacharach Tribute Show {CHS02122023}

With the passing this past week of the great songwriter Burt Bacharach, I'm very proud to share this special edition of the Coast Highway Shuffle Show. This show honors his legacy by playing over 30 of his songs in the sequence of the years that they were originally released. However, these are mostly versions of the songs covered by artists who did not record the "hit version". So, that means you'll hear familiar songs but as covered by artists like Isaac Hayes, Jennifer Warnes, Naked Eyes, Barenaked Ladies, The Sylistics, Love and Alison Moyet. Of course, Burt's "muse" Dionne Warwick, along with 60's vocal greats like Jackie DeShannon and Dusty Springfield are also represented!Burt Bacharach truly created my portal into beautiful melodies and creative time signatures through the 60's and early 70's, and in doing so he laid the foundation for so much of the music I've loved ever since. Thank you, Mr. Bacharach for all that. I'm deeply grateful. SR
