This one ranks among my top 5 favorite westcoast-albums. This is pure delight from the first song till the last. EVERYONE plays here, and Graydon is the man behind the wheel. Just timeless.
Good album from Dionne Warwick, although the main focus seems to be on the musicians than the singer (as is the case with many West Coast records) The best track is Friends in Love with Johnny Mathis They should release the Luther Vandross- produced HOW MANY TIMES CAN WE SAY GOODBYE on CD. Although it didn't do to well, it has the classic Warwick and Vandross duet. as well as Warwick's version of "So Amazing" later covered by Luther himslf.
