The man who gave us Pure Imagination, with Anthony Newley of course. Thank you.

This is really sad news, but he lived until the age of 90!! Major talent - - - wrote so many great songs in partnership and on his own.
His score for "Victor/Victoria" with Henry Mancini is great:
"Crazy World", "Le Jazz Hot", "Chicago, Illinois", "You and Me"...RIP Mr. Bricusse!

I love that Pure Imagination was written over a phone call in one day.
Lightning in a bottle creativity that lasts forever.
