I believe Burt himself says Peter Finch did a great job on If I Could Go Back.

By the way: I never heard Burt sing with so much passion (maybe Alfie is an exception?) as in the demo version of that song. He gave his all. What a treat. I started to really like the song only then.

Maybe someone posted this link before, but it is rather recent.

As someone said, it's priceless. Burt and Dionne rehearsing what was to become Loneliness Remembers.

A review I once wrote to Amazon.com: This is one of those great albums that Bacharach recorded at A&M. Make It Easy on Yourself is superb, and might just be my favorite. Perhaps what one will find most rewarding about this album is that relatively unknown compositions such as Pacific Coast Highw...
