| interesting that 1776 and Promises Promises were written by songwriters for whom these were their only Bway shows (and don't you think PP was the expected winner for the best musical Tony 1776 received) (I know Bacharach has noted he was finished with Bway because of his lack of control over the material) |

| I think Bacharach also didn't like the idea that the performance, being live, could change slightly from show to show, unlike a recording where it was captured to his specifications. It's kind of sad and bewildering in a way that he couldn't really enjoy having a smash hit on Broadway. | |

| Of course, Bacharach's Some Lovers (written with Steven Sater) could take him off this list. | |
