on BBC Radio 2

2/2. Michael Ball concludes a profile of songwriter Burt Bacharach, whose work with lyricist Hal David produced some of the more enduring and emotive pop hits. This edition recalls his Hollywood hits and misses and the career ties to Dionne Warwick, who expressed a certain displeasure when other artists covered songs she considered her own.
Plus a look at Bacharach's appeal for Elvis Costello, Noel Gallagher and Dr Dre.
