Just Incredible!!!

It's no secret that I am a Burt Bacharach fan. When I was depressed during the sixties, I played either Bacharach or the Beatles. But now with this CD, Burt wows us with his lyric writing as well as his songwriting abilities and composes protest songs that would make Bob Dylan jealous. Burt Bacharach is a gentleman and a gentle man. But he is pissed off by the current lot of criminals and hypocrites in Washington. Aren't we all??? The music and lyrics from this CD are habit forming. They replay in your head and are hard to shake off. Especially the words "Make em Stop!" from "Who are These People". I have always wanted to meet Burt Bacharach and listen to a live concert. Maybe someday! Anyway, remember Burt, What The World Needs Now Is Love Sweet Love and All You Need Is Love. The evil doers in Washington will be overcome by love, not hatred. They will choke on their own karma. I'm sure you know that. Also, please make at least one more CD with Hal David. We still need romance in these difficult times.

If you loved the music from Burt Bacharach in the 60s

If you loved the music from Burt Bacharach in the 60s, you will enjoy this CD. The only negative thing I can say is that I thought the first two songs were the same. They sound very much alike, but given that, they're both beautiful songs. I grew up in the 50s and 60s and this is definitely the kind of music I enjoy.
This is an update: I still like the CD, but after listening to it uninterrupted, I noticed that some of the lyrics are too silly and almost juvenile. Bacharach sings on some of the songs, but that is definitely not his talent. He's a wonderful pianist, composer and producer.

Never imagined I'd be a Bacharach fan

Beautiful, haunting, rich instrumentals. Before hearing about this album, I used to equate his music with the likes of The Carpenters, Dionne Warwick, and Herb Alpert; pleasant but not my favorites. Like an earlier reviewer, I heard the Jan 2006 NPR Terry Gross interview. This 78-year old musician wasn't basking in his career to date; rather, he was expressing his concerns about a world that he'll some day leave that worries him. It worries me too. He didn't sit idle; this CD has tracks that bring tears to my eyes. The lyrics are thought provoking, the instrumentals search for a more hopeful tomorrow. Favorite track: Is Love Enough

i have burts early sounds, kind of fluffy and simple...then got into the elvis costello and ron isley duos, which showcased a talent that has matured and enriched those lyrics with new meaning and soul from deep down inside. i just listened to "at this time" , and heard a new side to bacharach that brings you along his life time's journey of asking "where and why". it is all set into a memorable background that only he can produce. i know i will listen to this cd many times and reflect on my own

life and what i am leaving behind. judith walden

it's Bacharach, why wouldnt you!

This album is a fitting addition to the musical compendium from a composer and songwriter whose music has spanned generations and in this album infuses his own personal journey and thoughts. This is a wonderful album tinged with soul searching questions blended with a range of musically complex timings that whisper the quality and wonder that I have come to know that only comes from such a legend. Do yourself a favour!

Bacharach is back in the saddle with a magnificent album. The gap in between his album of 28 years was worth waiting for. He is a genius and a living legend without a shadow of a doubt.

Contemplative Burt against a Loungey Background

Reviewed in the United Kingdom 🇬🇧 on July 28, 2016

I got this for my grandad who has always been a big fan and I've enjoyed some of Burt's original music from the 60's myself over the years - mostly that which he has written for other people but some of his own performances, too. I heard some of this album myself and was surprised as it's a nice mix of mellow/lounge-style music with mostly Burt singing on the tracks and some cool guest appearances and collaborations from the likes of Dr.Dre, Wainwright and Costello. There is a nice juxtaposition of the smooth music and Burt's often fairly angry/disenchanted lyrics which are well written and hard-hitting. There is real emotion in his voice on the tracks and this seems far from some old musician trying to milk another album of half-hearted/try-hard tracks for the sake of it and it comes across as an album that has had a lot of thought and emotion put into it. It's not classic Baacharach but is a very nice update to his sound with some nice tunes to boot.
