This man was a genius composer and I have a lot of memories that play to the soundtrack of his music. The industry has lost a truly remarkable composer. My thoughts and prayers go out to his family and close friends. RIP, Hal David...your music will live on and keep your spirit alive.
You were just too busy being FABULOUS....

I was a big Carpenter's fan back in the day and loved their hit Close to You, written by Bacharach/David, as well as the Bacharach/David medley they recorded.
RIP.

And I dream I'm on vacation 'Cause I like the way that sounds,
It's a perfect occupation for me.
