Hi all,
This is my first post; I've been a Burt Bacharach fan for most of my life and just discovered this forum. I have a question about a Youtube video I came across while looking for something nice to post for Mr. Bacharach's birthday:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8J3J2GQckF4
Can anyone identify the source of that clip? I've looked for a BB "videography" on the web and haven't been able to find one. (Is there one?) The ITC logo led me to an IMDB listing: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0960046/... judging by Dusty Springfield's hairstyle, this might be right but I'd love to know for certain. I would also love to see more clips from this show, but the "tagging" on Youtube is frustratingly inaccurate. Links to additional bits of the show would be greatly appreciated!
Best,
Jean

I tried to catch all of Burt's TV Specials in the 60's and 70's. I don't specifically recall seeing that clip which I really enjoyed; however, I suspect it is from one of those BB TV Specials - or - perhaps a show that Dusty hosted in the UK around that time. Reminded me of a conversation I had with Burt on the beach here in Del Mar in the mid 70's (post "Lost Horizon") when he, Dionne and Hal David were no longer working together ......... I asked Burt about an item I had read in an entertainment column about he and Dusty working together on a new project. Burt stated that it was "news to him" - but - that he really would like to - and - admired her as a vocalist who had successfully recorded some of his music. This was at a time when Dusty was not actively recording either. Obviously no such project ever materialized (to the best of our knowledge). In retrospect - I think they could have mutually inspired each other to deliver some great songs!

Re: Burt on TV Question
Welcome jeanlas,
I'm pretty sure the Burt and Dusty clip is from "Another Evening With Burt Bacharach"
I remember watching it in the early seventies.
Hope this helps.....
