Some great news here, a four-part documentary - although I'm not sure if it's the same documentary they broadcast a few years ago, the review I read said " a new documentary".
You can listen online on Friday or 'listen again' for a week after the first part has been broadcast.
"What The World Needs Now: The Burt Bacharach Story (BBC Radio 2, Friday 27 October 7pm)
A Burt Bacharach song is a wonderful thing. It'll make a bad singer sound good and turn a great singer into a star. The song will seem deceptively simple on first hearing, but prove intriguingly complex second time around.
Paul Sexton begins this four-part series on the genius who gave us the soundtrack to our lives."

Any Radio show about the "Maestro"should be well worth a listen !!!

bacharach on radio2
I've listened to it. Quite good.
But isn't this a repeat of the series broadcast a few years ago.
It seems like it is but the commentator mentioned the
release of "At this Time"
Anyone knows why?
