Grammy®- and Oscar®-winning pop composer/arranger/conductor/producer/performer Burt Bacharach has been creating three-minute romantic rhapsodies for more than 40 years now. “I was thinking of miniature movies, with peak moments and not one intensity level the whole way through,” he says. “You can tell a story and be explosive one minute, then get quiet, as kind of a satisfying resolution.” You’ve seen and heard the 3-CD box set The Look Of Love: The Burt Bacharach Collection. Now, we bring you The Very Best Of Burt Bacharach—the best single-disc collection available spotlighting the legendary composer’s all-time greatest classics in their original hit versions, from 1961’s “Baby It’s You” by The Shirelles to 1985’s “That’s What Friends Are For” by Dionne (Warwick) & Friends.
