Dionne Warwick - She's Back (CD) - CD

Details: Two CD set. 2019 release from the iconic vocalist, produced by her son Damon Elliot. The lead-off single is an updated version of the Burt Bacharach/Hal David classic, "What The World Needs Now Is Love", which Dionne originally recorded in the 1960s. She's Back includes duets with Kenny Lattimore ("What Color Is Love"), Musiq Soulchild ("Am I Dreaming?) as well as Bone, Thugs & Harmony's Krayzie Bone ("Déjà Vu"). In addition to ten tracks of new songs as well of remakes of pop/soul gems, She's Back is packaged with a bonus disc of Ms. Warwick's 1998 album, Dionne Sings Dionne, which features her greatest hits, remastered for this package. She's Back is Ms. Warwick's 36th full-length studio recording, and her first dedicated R&B/soul album in fifty years, since the release of Dionne's stellar 1969 Scepter LP, Soulful, which she co-produced in Memphis with the late Chips Moman (who'd manned the boards for Dionne's then-label mate, B.J. Thomas). Ms. Warwick is one of several legends to be chosen to receive one of the Grammy Awards' highest honors this year - the Lifetime Achievement Award. She joins music greats such as George Clinton & Parliament-Funkadelic, Billy Eckstine, Donny Hathaway, Julio Iglesias as well as Sam & Dave in this bestowed class.
