  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.
