Interesting interview with Mark Cawley, especially this part:
Was there someone you always wanted to write with—and finally got a chance to write with them?
Yes, in a way. I love Burt Bacharach, and my buddy Eliot Kennedy had gone to LA and written a couple of tracks with him. No Lyrics. Next time I went to Sheffield, where Eliot lived, he said “fancy writing a lyric to this track I have with Burt Bacharach?” Glad I didn’t think too much, and just said yes! I walked around town with my headphones and this beautiful melody they had done. Wrote a lyric very much in the style of Burt, and he loved it. It’s called “If You Can Find It in Your Heart.” Story is Luther Vandross loved it and cut it, but we still haven’t heard it.

Davide,
Have Burt`s instructions regarding his unissued songs and compositions come to light?

I don't know. I hope that Burt catalog of unissued songs come to light.
