This is the first in a series of releases featuring two LPs on one CD aimed at reissuing the classic Scepter Records catalog of pop vocalist Dionne Warwick. Presenting Dionne Warwick and Anyone Who Had a Heart are her first and second long-players and almost immediately established the young singer as the perfect vehicle for the noir love songs of Hal David and Burt Bacharach. The songwriting duo's prolific nature is instantaneously evident as two-thirds of the 21 songs that comprise these two long-players bear not only their names, but more importantly their distinct sound. From right out of the box, this artist/composer team began having hits. However, the union was much closer to not occurring than their track record might suggest.
