New Burt box set on the way

burt-anyone-who-had-a-heart1In conjunction with the U.K. release of Burt Bacharach’s new memoir, Anyone Who Had a Heart: My Life and Music, Universal Music is preparing to issue a new Bacharach box set celebrating his songwriting. The six-disc set spans his career and features discs devoted to his solo career as well jazz interpretations of his songs. There will also be a two-disc sampler of the British box set and a U.S. two-disc collection with a different track listing. Not only that, the U.S. and U.K. samplers include tracks not on the box set. Confused? Don’t be. Joe Marchese, a longtime friend of Bacharachonline.com, sorts out the different releases in this outstanding article at The Second Disc.
