Burt Bacharach: Song By Song

You probably don't even realise how many Bacharach songs you know - how about the 60s songs 'What the world Needs Now Is Love' and 'Always Something There To Remind Me'; the Soul classics 'I Say A Little Prayer' and 'Walk On By', and even Tom Jones's 'What's New Pussycat?'. This is a guide to Bacharach's vast recorded oeuvre, from Nat King Cole's little known 1952 version of 'Once In A Blue Moon' to Burt's recent collaborations. An indispensable resource for all fans, serious record collectors and music critics, it includes a exclusive interview with Burt, a song-by-song rundown of his work with writing partners Hal David, Caroline Bayer Sager and Elvis Costello, a comprehensive Library Of Congress listing of all songs including unpublished/unfinished ones and sections that have been sampled for contemporary use, hundreds of photographs, notes for collectors, biographical information and more!
