 (2 Customer Reviews)
THE DIONNE WARWICK COLLECTION was released a few years before the pop world at large gave the music of Burt Bacharach and Hal David a long-overdue reappraisal. Decades of Muzak versions of "Alfie" and "Do You Know the Way to San Jose?" had largely hidden the sublime and complex pleasures of the originals. This 24-track CD is as much a retrospective of Bacharach and David's best work as it is a showcase for Warwick's stunning versatility.
The singer quickly became the duo's foremost interpreter, with an instinctive gift for wrapping herself around David's wordy, often ironic lyrics and Bacharach's marriage of challenging melodies and surprising time changes. Her takes on "Walk on By" and the aforementioned songs are their definitive versions. This compilation, packaged and remastered with Rhino's usual exquisite care, is a must-own for any halfway-serious fan of sophisticated pop.

I am struck by the complexity of this music. I guess when you are listening on an AM radio, with the ear of a teen - you missed this complexity. The clearness of the cd format brings out the strings, and use of orchestration that is not prevalent in todays music. And what to say about Dionne? She had a unique way of blending many elements into a cohesive whole. Also a nod to Burt Bacharach. He really captured a sophistication that the music of the later 60's failed to match. All in all - if you can get over the stigma of this music happening prior to The Beatles, I think anyone who had a heart could not listen and marvel.

Namaste, I hope you enjoy this new album as much as we enjoyed working on it. These songs are as intimate and nice to listen to as the songs in my previous albums. Amar Raj Sharma, a well known songwriter/composer from Patan, is one of my collaborators. I've tried a few different styles; I've never recorded songs with Tablas before, and I've managed a couple in this album.This is my 4th album and my 4th collaboration with veteran guitarist, arranger & composer, Kishor Gurung. “Harek Mod Ma” was written and composed in 2002. This song is about the love of your life, the light of your life, your soul mate. It’s about respect and admiration towards your partner. It’s about waiting, hoping, promising, and thinking about all the wonderful things that have happened between you and her and also waiting for many beautiful things to happen in the future at every turn. This love is so pure and true you tend to ask yourself if it’s really true or you’ve just woken up from a dream. This is a very romantic tune with simple lyrics and music. Kishor Gurung’s acoustic guitar picking sounds beautiful and unique in this Nepali song. “Sapana Sari” was written and composed in 2003/04 by Amar Raj Sharma, a well known song writer /composer from the Patan area. He has, in the past, written many hit songs for other singers as well. I was so impressed with this unique style of composition and it’s lyrical content that I had to record it. The lyrics are philosophical- it’s about life. The song talks about how one is born and grows old- an on-going ritual. During this beautiful life one ...
