5 out of 5 stars an audio textbook of creative versatility.......2001-09-12

I admit it. It took half my life for me to understand just how creative and influential Burt Bacharach and Hal David are. It?s another case of extreme commercial success overshadowing genuine artistic merit. When I?m in a cynical mood, I often think that had one (or both) of them died sometime in the early 70s ? a skiing accident perhaps -- then B&D would have easily ascended to the musical Parthenon, right beside the Gershwins as purveyors of the Great American Songbook. As it stands, their catalog is one of unique and fascinating marriages of musical ?lan and lyrical dexterity ever, though some of the lame, bland artists who?ve interpreted their work have always hindered their reputation. Combine the wit and wisdom of Rodgers and Hart with the drama and melody of Holland-Dozier-Holland and add the commercial versatility and acumen of Dianne Warren and you get an idea of what to expect from their body of work. Don't be fooled by naysayers claiming B+D's songs don't "rock". The Bacharach/David catalog holds some thrills and chills along with a ton of great words and music.
