writers: Music by Burt Bacharach / Lyrics by Hal David

electric jazz guitar: Lianne La Havas

This song is a cover of the classic pop hit composed by the songwriting duo, Burt Bacharach & Hal David. It was first released as a single by Dianne Warwick in 1967. However, the following year, Aretha Franklin released her version, which became an even bigger hit that secured the song a place in pop music history. This version by Lianne La Havas is clearly inspired mainly by the Aretha Franklin version, judging by the choice of vocal phrasings and guitar chords. As always, Lianne La Havas does a fantastic job!
