For those of us interested in experiencing something 'new', here's a rather rarely heard cover of 'I'll Never Fall In Love Again' [[from the musical 'Promises, Promises') -

Speaking of Promises Promises, why wouldn't that have been chosen as a Dionne contribution to this CD?

There are two Dionne Warwick selections on this CD " Who Can I Turn To?" [["The Roar of the Greasepaint, The Smell of the Crowd") and "Summertime" [["Porgy and Bess")

The Four Tops' album "On Broadway"

"Climb Every Mountain" was a masterpiece.

Dionne has some other selections that could have made that list. The Sound of Music made it to Broadway so Dionne's version of My Favorite Things [[from her album titled On Stage And In The Movies) could have been in there. Also songs from her album Sings Cole Porter and 2 songs from the play Promises Promises [[I'll Never Fall In Love and the title song) could have been in there. That would have been a bit too much of Dionne though.
