Free Music Review: "Walk On By . . . Make Believe That You Don't See The Tears"
Hit: 5 Stars
The multi-faceted and prolific composer, Grammy Awardee and a hitmaker, Burt Bacharach, was one of the special guests at Chris Botti's concert I've watched last year at the Wilshire Theatre. It was an incredible musical experience watching him perform live as he showed-off his piano artistry on Chris Botti and Paula Cole's performance of one of his very famous compositions and my all-time favorite, "The Look of Love." I loved all the hit songs he collaborated with lyricist Hal David - "Walk On By," "Alfie," "You'll Never Get To Heaven," "I Say A Little Prayer," "A House Is Not A Home," "Anyone Who Had A Heart," "They Long To Be Close To You," "The April Fools," "That's What Friends Are For," "This Guy's In Love With You" and "There's Always Something There To Remind Me."
This is a compilation of twelve of his most remarkable compositions including the title track of a Broadway production, "Promises, Promises" as interpreted by some of the finest recording artists from Blue Note Records. Some are with vocals by Nancy Wilson ("Alfie" and "Wives and Lovers") and Lou Rawls ("Any Day Now") and the rest are purely instrumentals. This CD promises a great listening enjoyment from the opening track, "Promises, Promises" by the Jazz Cruzaders to the last track, Ernie Watts' "Knowing When To Leave." Grant Green does a great take on "I'll Never Fall In Love Again." Each track is a charming delight.
My highlights are "What The World Needs Now" and "Walk On By," performed by a great saxophonist, Stanley Turrentine. "The Look of Love" by The Three Sounds is also a great listen. Another beguiling track is "Do You Know The Way To San Jose?" featuring Richard Holmes on organ. Earl Klugh, a fine guitarist, shines in his solo guitar with the gorgeous interpretation of "The April Fools." Nancy Wilson's take on "Alfie" is so beautiful and the orchestra was conducted and arranged by one of the best Sinatra arrangers, Billy May.
This is a wonderful tribute to the timeless music of Burt Bacharach and the meaningful lyrics of Hal David.
With my heartfelt recommendation.
