Hidden Treasure !

Our learned reviewer Thomas Lay hits the beauty and importance of this album right on target. Dionne is lengendary for ballads but this album is somewhat quaint and different. It delivers you to a different state of listening pleasure that will invoke semblances of country pop, MOR and emotive sentimentals. This album challenges the listener to categorise its genre and will actually remain quite happy just being appreciated for its expansive celebrative musical arrangements and tune instead. Dionne introduced this album to the Brazilian audience way back in the early 70's and made quite an impact on Fantasia (not the Disney movie), their national variety show then. Not that they did not already know her but this album brought her closer to rank and qualifies her as one of the very few unique singers in English that was so dearly embraced by the population there. Any wonder why Dionne made the "Aquarela Do Brasil" album and currently resides in???-->make a wild guess. The musical style is unbelievably timeless and very very "happy" and you won't even suspect it was recorded during the 70s. Well, looks like it's not just Madonna who can kick retro. If you love Dionne like most diehard fans do, you will also be most delighted and amazed with the album cover pictorial of how our casual pony tailed girl turned Miranda in stark ocean blue floral on the back. Wow....si si (x7)...she looks verrr...y nice! Go for a real treasured find and buy the album..strictly no regrets...you can always say that with all Dionne's album..especially the hidden ones.

MUST BE REISSUED ASAP

AS ALL GREAT FANS, I WANTED TO BUY THIS ITEM AND WAS VERY DISAPPOINTED NOT TO FIND IT ANYWHERE ON THE WEB. WEA SHOULD RECONSIDER TO REISSUE THIS ITEM ASAP !

VERY URGENT

Sublime

I just adore Dionne Warwick and was thrilled to find this, and several other of her albums re-released on import. Risking my bank manager having an apoplectic attack, I ordered them all and this one was the first to arrive. I was not disappointed and I can't imagine any Dionne fan being so when they buy this. It's very indicative of the time, but hasn't become twee with age. One of my very favourite songs is "Since you stayed here" and her version is just the best. Very simple, plaintive and with lyrics to die for. Perfection is CD shaped! If only "Track of the Cat" & No night so long" were re-released on CD, I would be a very happy fan.
