reviews:

I've been waiting a few weeks for mine because of holiday mailings and such. This Dionne collection of the Arista Years (1979-1994) is the best out there, except for two small flaws (though still rates 5 stars).

First flaw is not including a single B-side from the Michael Masser sessions that were done for the studio side of "Hot! Live and Otherwise" in 1981. The song, "This Time Is Ours" is one of Dionne's best of the period, and should have been an A-side. It was relegated to the flip of the ballad single "Some Changes Are For Good". The saving grace with this set is that the entire Side 4 of that album is included on Disc 1 here, even if not in original LP track order. I believe with this set, the Steve Buckingham produced "Dedicate This Heart" makes its CD debut, because it was left off both the long out-of-print US and Japan issues of "Hot..." The lovely "This Time Is Ours" has never been on a Dionne album or a CD release.

Second flaw is that not one track was used from the last Arista CD "Aquarela Du Brazil". Granted, not a best seller, but still a nice package, I would have included at least one track (as was done with "Night And Day" (Jazz Version) from "Sings Cole Porter"). The third CD only clocks in at under 69 minutes, so there was room, but Disc 3 ends with tracks from the "Friends Can Be Lovers" CD, which was an oversighted gem when released in 1993. Absolutely one of Dionne's best albums.

Overall, it is very comprehensive and covers a great deal of ground. A note for the fans - DEJA VU on Disc 1 is not the single version, but the 5:08 album version.

Since this is an import, I am hoping Sony/BMG will eventually do an Essential Dionne Warwick collection here in the US, as they have done with other artists, and correct these flaws in their 2-CD set. In 2009, it will be 30 years since the beginning of the Arista Years, and this January 2006, there is a 45th Anniversary Celebration scheduled to celebrate Dionne's career. Therefore, I hope the fans do "get it all" down the road, inclusive of some guest appearances made on other CD albums of the period ("In Love Alone" from Richard Carpenter's post-Karen album, "TIME"in 1987; "Once A Time I Loved You" and the duet with Placido Domingo "Till I Loved You", from the Goya Sessions in 1991, etc).
