feat: Hasbrook Heights The quintessential Bacharach number, featuring his most endearing lead vocal. Sixteen tracks in the collection are non-hit versions of songs that were U.S. hits, many of them for Bacharach favorite Dionne Warwick, whose absence is striking. "Burt Bacharach shared another Oscar for this song, which was performed by Christopher Cross for the comedy movie The song was written as a collaboration between Cross, Bacharach, and Bacharach's frequent writing partner and then wife Carole Bayer Sager.A fourth writing credit went to Liza Minnelli's ex-husband Peter Allen, as the line "When you get caught between the moon and New York City" was taken from an unreleased song Allen and Bayer Sager had previously written together.Written and produced by Bacharach and his former wife Carole Bayer Sager, it was first recorded by Dionne Warwick, but she decided not to release it.A year later, Patti Labelle recorded it as a duet with Richard Chamberlain first recorded this Burt Bacharach and Hal David ballad in 1963, but it was not a hit.Dionne Warwick (again) also released it as an album track a year later.Herb Alpert had first been offered it, but he was not a fan of his own version.Written by Bacharach and David to convey a woman's concern for her lover who's serving in the Vietnam War, Aretha only ended up recording it after singing it for fun one day in the studio with backing singers The Sweet Inspirations.This is arguably Dionne Warwick's signature song, and the same goes for Burt Bacharach and Hal David.Amazingly, it was only a B-side to another single, and it was down to a local New York DJ who preferred it, that may have saved her career after a string of unsuccessful singles. feat: What is your favourite Burt Bacharach tune?
