Datameister 2,042 Posted March 6, 2012 Share Posted March 6, 2012 Robert Sherman (known for his musical collaborations with his brother Richard) has reportedly passed away. I was just listening to Mary Poppins a few hours ago, marveling at its ingenious charm. It's terribly sad to think that half of the team that created that and so many other masterpieces is now gone forever. RIP Robert Sherman. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LongTallJodie 59 Posted March 6, 2012 Share Posted March 6, 2012 Good Lord. Jan Berenstain. Davy Jones. Ralph McQuarrie. Robert Sherman. All in around a WEEK. The Universe is clearly trying to systematically destroy my childhood.*sigh* Anyway, he was fantastic. Absolutely fantastic.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6IPE6DsNPzE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Miguel Andrade 1,263 Posted March 6, 2012 Share Posted March 6, 2012 Don't think anyone mentioned it before, but the Sherman's had a connection with Williams, on the 1973 musical Tom Sawyer. There was this little bit of them working together on the laserdisc release of the film. R.I.P. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maglorfin 196 Posted March 6, 2012 Share Posted March 6, 2012 I know many don't, but I actually like and enjoy the Chitty Chitty Bang Bang soundtrack (I've never seen the film). I'm listening to it again today in Mr Sherman's memory. Me Ol' Bam-Boo! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
indy4 155 Posted March 7, 2012 Share Posted March 7, 2012 I love Chitty. I actually prefer it to Mary Poppins, although that could be because the latter has been overplayed in pop culture. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
