Lyricist Hal David has died aged 91.

Predominantly known to us Bond fans for the wonderful We Have All the Time in the World, plus The Look of Love.

RIP.

RIP Hal David. You are remembered for working with both John Barry and Burt Bacharach (CR 1967), both of whom have scored Bond films in the past. We Have All The Time In The World was your best Bond effort, and you have done almost as well elsewhere. You have lived a long and full life, living to be 91, and may you be just as adept in the hereafter. See you then, Hal!
