A great doc on PBS right now about Burt Bacharach. Okay, Music for Squares, but I learned trombone from gradeschool thru high school via these songs. Lots of interesting chord changes, but what was really unusual in this music was the constant time changes: a song in 4/4, then a bar of 3/4, then 5/8, then a bar of 1/1, back to 4/4, or not... challenging stuff for a primary school student.
They wrote many hits for various artists like Dusty Springfield, Dionne Warwick, Tom Jones, Herb Alpert (the leader of HA and the Tijuana Brass, and also the "A" in "A&M Records"), BJ Thomas, 5th Dimension. Nice "journey back" tonight...
