Has anyone seen a CD version of the double LP Johnny Mathis sings the music of Burt Bacharach and Bert Kaempfert? I got a cassette copy of it years ago but of course now it would be nice to find a CD of it if were available.

Is there any hope that Burt's later albums will get released on CD and not be an import? It is so frustrating that things we want on CD do come out eventually but as outrageously priced imports. Surely Japan isn't a larger market for Burt than we are? But then again, maybe it is. Some of...

I just read at billboard.com that Burt will be one of the recipients of the Lifetime Achievement Award at the next Grammy Awards. Even though for the most part I don't put a lot of stock in the Grammys anymore, it's really nice to hear they are honoring Burt this year. Gives me faith that at...
