Robert

Sour (1905–1985) was a lyricist

and composer,

and the president of Broadcast Music Incorporated (BMI). In

1940 Sour worked for Broadcast Music as its lyrics editor, and by 1966 had

risen through company ranks to become BMI's president. Two years later he had

become the company's vice chairman and was instrumental in establishing BMI's

musical theater workshop.[3] He retired in 1970. Working with lyricists Edward Heyman

and Frank Eyton

and composer Johnny Green, Sour wrote the lyrics to the

ballad "Body and Soul" from the revue, Three's A

Crowd. In partnership with Una Mae

Carlisle (1915–1956), he also composed lyrics for the song

"Walkin' by the River", which became a radio hit as sung by Syliva

Froos (1927–2004) in 1941. Ella

Fitzgerald recorded "Walkin' by the River" for Decca Records,

with Leroy Kirkland directing the orchestra. Benny Carter also recorded

"Walkin", with Carlisle on vocals. Sour composed music and lyrics for

both film and theater; along with Henry Katzman,

he wrote the soundtrack sections "Twitterpated" and "Thumper's

Song" for the Walt Disney Productions animated feature Bambi.
