[English]
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Hal David, Caroline Bayer Sager and Elvis Costello, a comprehensive Library Of Congress listing of all songs including unpublished/unfinished ones and sections that have been sampled for contemporary use, hundreds of photographs, notes for collectors, biographical information and more!

Reseña del editor:
Best known as the composer (with lyricist Hal David) of such hits as Dionne Warwick's "Walk on By", Dusty Springfield's "The Look of Love" and the Carpenters' "Close to You", Burt Bacharach wrote the music for over 700 published songs, which have been recorded by some 2000 artists - from Frank Sinatra and Elvis Presley to the Beatles and the Supremes. This book offers a cheeky song-by-song journey through 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 with Elvis Costello, Lyle Lovett and Chicago.
