Couple of Good Song Writers, Off to Valhalla...

Jerry Leiber, the lyricist of the Leiber-Stoller songwriting team; great tunes I grew up with, in the '50s. Yeah, I know a long time ago, but a remarkable list of songs.

And, Nick Ashford, who wrote a few great tunes I grew up with, and got to
see done by the original artists, back at the Ol'Grande Ballroom in Detroit.
He was a damn good singer, too, and not a long enough ride, imo...
