old timers as it were... i still think H.Mancini and B.Bacharach wrote some amazing music. it still gives me a lift. even if it's inside an "elevator"....
I never liked the kind of music he sang, especially when sung by his peers. But every time he appeared on TV I was glued to the set. I found his voice very appealing and always enjoyed his performances.
A great talent, and by all accounts, a good man as well. He had an unusual quality that few male singers posess, (Gary Puckett and Glen Campbell come to mind) of having a very sweet high register, while remaining very masculine at the same time. I will miss him, but remember him through his music.
