msc 18,534 Posted December 29, 2019 Was touring this summer but is apparently quite frail when not playing. The Guardian review of his July gig also refers to his frail manner. Quote With a full orchestra and guest vocalists, Bacharach performed songs from his iconic songbook to open the venue’s Summer Nights series. At 91 years old, and clearly quite frail, Bacharach still plays mellifluously. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Had to be helped to the stage. once a guitar was placed in his hands, he was totally transformed 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
