I doubt it, although he did record "Any Day Now", and that’s one of those things where you think, “Great!”, and you hear it and it’s not so great. It was the same thing with Frank Sinatra and the Count Basie band, with Quincy Jones producing. They did "Wives and Lovers", which is in 3/4 time, but they did it in 4/4.

What It Means

This is a placeholder explanation generated by the low-overhead model. It interprets "I doubt it, although he did record "Any Day Now", and that’s one of those things where you think, “Great!”, and you hear it and it’s not so great.

I said, “Quincy, what happened?” He said: “The Basie band can’t play in 3/4.”" in the context of "Burt Bacharach's pompously ridiculous answer during an interview by Dave Simpson, a reporter from The Guardian on whether there were any great singers or musicians he'd wish to have worked with, or did work with, specifically Elvis Presley, Frank Sinatra, Count Basie and Quincy Jones, as published in the newspaper's May 25, 2016 edition." to mean that wisdom is timeless.
