I came across this brand new book of jazz piano solos. Included in the book is "In Between The Heartaches", and that's one I've been looking for forever! "Baby, It's You" is in it, too, as well as "Don't Go (Please Stay)". You can order it from www.colonymusic.com, if you want.

I have to say that I've never seen a book of Burt's music arranged like this.

Here's the link to the book.

... Wow. And "Lifetime Of Loneliness" as well! I'd love to hear these piano solos.

It says they are "jazz" interpretations... that can mean a whole lot of things.... from subtly embellished to wild, Bill Evans-esque flights-of-fancy. Most Burt songs are sophisticated enough without employing jazzy substitutions... I'd be thrilled to see mature BB solos that simply registered the correct, original chords--- in the original keys (of the records that they are most closely associated with).
