duaneiac Posted August 5, 2017 Report Posted August 5, 2017 Now playing Disc 1 of 3 from: I'd only seen this set in the longbox format, but a couple weeks ago I found it in a jewel box format and bought it. Unfortunately the liner notes include just the bar bones basics (aomposer, arranger credits, chart positions, etc.) so there's nothing to learn about the stories behind any individual songs/recordings. I assume the longbox version had more informative notes. Still the music is wonderful and in the early years covered by Disc 1 it's good to be reminded of some songs I don't usually associate with Burt Bacharach -- "Baby It's You", "The Story of My Life", "(The Man Who Shot) Liberty Valance", "Blue On Blue". Dionne Warwick only sings two tracks on this disc as versions of some songs I would associate with her are performed by other artists. Quote
duaneiac Posted August 6, 2017 Report Posted August 6, 2017 red by a bit of conversation on another thread: An album of standards ranging from "What'll I Do" to "Hallelujah I Love Him So". Generally MOR arrangements, but all songs are beautifully sung. Quote
