Correction, typo..age 94.


NEW YORK (AP) — Burt Bacharach, the singularly gifted and popular composer who delighted millions with the quirky arrangements and unforgettable melodies of "Walk on By," "Do You Know the Way to San Jose" and dozens of other hits, has died at 94.

The Grammy, Oscar and Tony-winning Bacharach died Wednesday at home in Los Angeles of natural causes, publicist Tina Brausam said Thursday.

Over the past 70 years, only Lennon-McCartney, Carole King and a handful of others rivaled his genius for instantly catchy songs that remained performed, played and hummed long after they were written. He had a run of top 10 hits from the 1950s into the 21st century, and his music was heard everywhere from movie soundtracks and radios to home stereo systems and iPods, whether “Alfie” and “I Say a Little Prayer” or “I’ll Never Fall in Love Again” and “This Guy’s in Love with You.”

"Walk on By" is such a great song. Every cover of this song is great including the punk band, The Stranglers

Chef's kiss for that song.
This is my very generic signature added to each post.

I liked Dionne Warwick's version the best. Saw her perform in Varsity Gym. She had a reputation for being late..and she was.
She was well worth the wait. Loved Trains, Boats and Planes as well as the Valley of the Dolls song
