About Plays The Burt Bacharach Hits
Amazon.com Back before one is a genius, one is a hustling schlub who thinks he's a genius, and Bacharach never completely left the Brill Building, even in the '70s when he turned up his collar and started writing symphonies about what women are allegedly about. This oft-reissued 1965 date for Kapp (augmented by a touch of earlier material) is the pop calm before the full-blown storm of his post-"What's New Pussycat?" career onA&M. There's an orchestra and white bread chorus, all right, but the results are relatively unpretentious, and you might be surprised by the endless number of hits he'd written before the peak: "Walk On By", "A House is Not a Home", "Wives and Lovers", etc. No Dionne, but Bacharach makes his Muzak count in a manner that Neil Diamond, after much effort, never has. There's still time, though. --D. Strauss Product Description With numerous ballads in movies, an upcoming Broadway salute to his music with Hal David, the appearance of several tribute albums, new collaborations and the resurgence of lounge music, this Oscar and Grammy Award-winner is more in the limelight now than in recent memory. This CD features all of Bacharach's Kapp Recordings in stereo including rare singles and one previously unreleased alternate ("Saturday Sunshine"). Other highlights include "Don't Make Me Over," "Walk on By," "Don't Go Breaking My Heart" and more.
