Re: Who was Dionne Warwick married to?

I should add that Dionne was never sexier and prettier than after the divorce. Those late 70s/early 80s pictures of her are marvelous. Of course, her voice was at its peak then as well. Maybe the divorce really did her some good!

Re: Who was Dionne Warwick married to?

Our Dionne may have had an unfortunate marriage, but I don't exactly feel sorry for her. Relationship issues are intensely personal, but I feel okay discussing it since she wrote about it in her book. She pursued and married Bill despite his reputation as a womanizer. She left Bill and got a "M...

Re: DIONNE WARWICK ... 72 / 50

It's really great to read everyone's in put about Dionne Warwick's birthday etc To answer your question 'face'. Dionne was very big, to quote Bachto Bacharach, the biggest female recording artist for a certain period in the 60's and I think early 70's. BachtoBacharach is excellent in his detailed k...

Re: DIONNE WARWICK ... 72 / 50

I found the silence here about Dionne's new CD to be rather curious, especially since it's such a Bacharach celebration as well, but I just chalked it up to the fact that some people hadn't bought it yet. However, enough time has passed now that I'm just thinking that folks aren't all that intereste...

Re: Dionne Warwick's voice

Welcome. There is probably no topic more discussed here than Dionne's voice, but that's simply because it is so fascinating. First, let me answer your questions: yes and yes. Yes, she still sounds good today, and yes, she has always sounded good. I agree that her vocal heyday was the 80s, but many f...

Re: Didn't have to wait 'til Tuesday

GehVorbei, I finally got my CD. I agree with everything you've said, and I'm surprised that no one is really talking about the CD here. Her current voice is still a pleasure to listen to when it is recorded and produced properly (as the Christmas CD, the Sammy Khan CD, and this one demonstrate so we...

Re: Samples of all 12 songs on Dionne's new album "Now"

In case you haven't heard the whole album yet, here's the link: http://news.qthemusic.com/2012/10/dionne_warwick_-_exclusive_new.html. This project will go down as one of her very best and most cohesive albums, in my opinion. Some of the songs work better than others, but there are quite a few brill...
