Format:Audio CD
Every so often, an artist who you thought had given of their best already, steps up and surprises you. Only Trust Your Heart is just such an album from Dionne Warwick. Her catalogue of dozens of classic songs from the likes of Bacharach and David through to Stevie Wonder, The Brothers Gibb, Luther Vandross, Mr Manilow etc stretches back over 50 years now and have become part of the soundtrack of so many peoples lives. Her voice is certainly one of the greatest in popular music. Well stop the press....IT STILL IS!!! You can really feel that this recording draws on all 50 years worth of this ladies musical experience. The choice of songs, for the main stream 'Amercian Songbook' fans(ie Me), are not the usual instantly recognizable jazz standards that have re-emerged through the careers of Buble, Krall, Cullum etc....but they are really truly great songs, really well produced to transports you to the very classiest jazz club, oysters on the bar, chilled champagne...and real musicians....think The Cafe Carlisle in NYC (with an extention for the moments when a big flourish of strings are required). Ms Warwick's vocals sound really wonderfully fresh and are delivered with the light sophistication, phrasing and interpretation of a vocal master. If you don't know Dionne Warwick, start from the beginning with Bacharach and David, but also start from this album and work backwards. Loved it. Enjoy.

A long awaited new album from the Divine Dionne bringing together a collection of songs by Sammy Cahn and assorted collaborators. In her totally individual way Dionne makes all these songs, some of them much more familiar than others, sound completely new.
There is a cabaret atmosphere to that enchanting chocolate smoke voice that has certainly kept me in audial bliss for four decades and more. I revisit Dionne albums more than any other and this has hardly been off my i player since I bought it, its a once a day thing for me so that I discover myself singing along to the amusement of the other people on the bus/in the supermarket queue.
If you are a Dionne fan you will no doubt already have this and if you are not and are looking for the essence of romance you should look no further then this beautiful set of recordings
As if to remind us of her musical roots she has also included a new Burt Bacharach track "Keep Me In Mind" which is a smouldering torch song and stand out track.
For me the CD of the year so far.

this album has got to be inspirational to her peers and young ones coming through and her fans, Her fans have been denied such quality cds. over the past ten years,whilst la.warwick rerecorded three d sings d i can only imagine they were done strictly for cash ie puplishing rights etc.she has proved with this cd. she still has a lot to offer i hope she continues to record the standards and like ella and lena before she will continue to have a career before her. s
