There’s a nice video interview with Burt in which he talks about his introduction to music and the inspiration behind At This Time at Rehearsals.com. Registration is required to view the segment, but it’s free of charge.
Burt’s latest blog entry, Wishin’ and Hopin’ In Red, Blue and Italy, is now online at the Huffington Post.

Burt Bacharach talks with Ron Shapiro about At This Time and his classic collaborations with Hal David and Dionne Warwick on this week’s RhinoCast Rhino Records’ weekly podcast. In addition to downloading the show, you can hear an extended interview with Burt as well as register to win an autographed copy of The Look of Love at Rhino.com.
Vincent Cole sent in photos from recent Bacharach shows in New Jersey and at B.B. King’s in New York. Thanks, Vincent!
Burt is now a blogger. Bacharach’s first column, which appeared yesterday on the political website The Huffington Post, discussed the evolution of the new political consciousness in his music. Unlike last fall, when Burt’s comments about President Bush and the Iraq War provoked an angry conservative backlash, the readers of the Huffington Post were almost universal in their praise and encouragement. Blogging isn’t the only new media Burt has recently become involved
Burt will be performing in Italy this summer after all. A pair of just-announced dates in Forli and Trani highlight Burt’s summer performance schedule. The full itinerary, which includes newly announced shows in New York, Denver and Florida, is available on the On Tour page.
Vincent Cole sent in a couple of photos taken with Burt following his performance in Raleigh, NC, on Feb. 25. To read Vincent’s review of the show, see his post in the Discussion Forum.
I just received Burt’s newly revised official press bio, which I’ve uploaded as a PDF file for those who like that sort of thing.
