In loving memory.....the GREAT BURT BACHARACH. Such an iconic composer. Always very melodic and haunting compostions. BURT, the best composer ever! There will never be another composer as BURT was! Thank BURT for all the great compositions that you have written. Your Legacy will live forever!
The Isley Brothers are iconic…they even influenced the Beatles. Ronald Isley with Burt Bacharach is such a miraculous surprise…it’s one of the best collaborations I’ve seen with Burt…I also enjoy Bacharach with Elvis Costello…My Little Red Book is here on RUclips.
everything on that cd here i am-isley meets bacharach-year made 2003 is 101% excellent. ron isley's voice is amazing on burt bacharach's songs! ron turned all burt songs into love ballads.
What a way with this lyric Ron Isley has with this great old song by Burt! It's like the first time I heard it - Isley & Burt made it brand new for me.,..GREAT!! Thank you.

album 🥃🥃.
Love this version so tender with emotion.
Wow, just saw this...What a great combination of 2 greats!!!
Love Ron Isley please come to South Africa after I heard the duet Lauryn Hill I came here Speechless
Just revisited this video and couldn't agree with you more, except come to Ireland first ,no disrespect
Wow. Is this concert available on CD. Every song has blown me away. Such passion and talent had me locked down.
High intensive
Both men are masters... Dionne did a great job... Black people could appreciate the words and music more with that Isley touch...aka Mr. Big
Trust ,Of all people Black people know and appreciate all music the deeper you go in music history and origin ,the blacker it gets.
Black people are not a monolith. Some of us like country, classical, jazz, soul, gospel, etc. Some like it all.
Hey fool, stop talking like you know me. YOU don't speak for me!
You don't know me.
😂😂😂
I miss you Burt...

I WOULD HAVE LOVED TO Have Heard The ICONIC LEGEND SAM COOKE TO PERFORM ""RAIN DROPS "" WE we will never
Slow dancing in my generation equals butt rubbing and grinding, so yeah, give or take.
Makes you want to slow dance. Do young people still do that?
Dang!
Who gave those guys a career lol
Guy is aweful
Im tired of coming across excessive emotional comments by black women.
Why dont y'all learn how to cook or something? Oh, i forgot, 80% of y'all dont have a husband, so you have more time to spend on the internet.
