Reviews Customer Reviews for The Very Best Of Dionne Warwick      What A Great Voice      Rating:      Filling in my 60's collection, I came across this very talented artist. To me, the best songs are "I Say A Little Prayer", "Do You Know The Way To San Jose", "I'll Never Fall In Love Again", "Alfie, and "...Valley of The Dolls". All still very listenable. A good buy.     Customer Reviews for The Very Best Of Dionne Warwick Cd      Holds up Remarkably      Rating:      I'm shocked how much I like this CD. When these songs were popular and I was much younger I was no fan of the pop music of Burt Bacharach, and I dismissed Dionne Warwick as just commercial and forgettable. A few weeks ago I heard a singer on American Idol (yeah please don't hold it against me that I find that show entertaining) do "Anyone who had a Heart" and I did not remember the song but thought it was gorgeous so I bought this album. Wow! Dionne Warwick has a fabulous voice and could really sing. Many of these songs belong in the catalog of great american standards. The arrangements, while clearly of their time, still sound interesting and engaging. If you are looking for rock or soul in the classic sense you won't find it here. If you like pop standards, and perhaps even jazz vocals, you'll probably be surprised to be reminded what a great vocalist Dionne Warwick was in her prime and how many gems were written by Burt Bacharach.
