I love Burt Bacharach's music. Simple as that, though I wish more people would similarly celebrate the work of his greatest lyricist, Hal David. Either way, Burt died this week, and in this, the first of two podcast tributes I want to upload, I read an interview I did with the man over the phone in 1998. My one regret is that we never did a face-to-face interview. And, by the way, after I told him I had a bootleg of Elvis's recording session for Any Day Now, he asked me to send him a copy, and I did.
