Capsule review: Dionne Warwick - Make way for Dionne Warwick (1964)




Often considered her classic album. Nine Bacharach-David credits, though two are doubles from the debut album (again). Two landmark singles 'Walk on by' and 'Land of make believe', and a series of classic Bacharach-David songs ('A house is not a home', 'Reach out for me', 'You'll never get to heaven', 'The last one to be loved', a proto- 'Close to you'). But few of these performances feel definitive, compared to the Lou Johnson 'originals' for instance.
