Subject: RE: Obit: Robert B. Sherman, Disney songwriter From: FreddyHeadey Date: 02 Jun 24 - 03:32 PM And Richard M Sherman May 25, 2024 (aged 95) BBC 'Outlook' programme available for ~three weeks. Maryam Maruf went to meet him in 2016 at his home – in front of his piano – in Los Angeles. He reflected on a lifetime of extraordinary memories and his half-century collaboration with his brother Robert creating some of Disney's most magical songs.

Subject: Obit: Richard Sherman (Disney songwriter) From: Stilly River Sage Date: 04 Jun 24 - 03:23 PM A lot of information about the work of brothers Robert and Richard Sherman's work for Walt Disney appeared in the Mudcat obituary of Robert B. Sherman in 2012. His younger brother Richard died on May 25, 2024. Once this squib is in place for the new thread I'll move the link for Richard from the bottom of the obit thread for his brother. As Desert Dancer cautioned in the previous obit, beware earworms. They wrote some of the most durable brain-sticky tunes out there. |
