I've been wanting this CD since I saw Ron Isley perform on Good Morning America 4 years ago. It seemed I just kept forgetting to buy it and when I would remember, I'd be at a Borders where the CD would be $10+ so I'd tell myself to wait and look on Ebay for it. Lo and behold, I got it on Ebay for a much better deal and I'm so happy to have it after wanting it for so long. I love the idea of recycling things too, there's just to much stuff in the world and the whole Ebay concept is so much better than continuing to feed the cycle of 'stuff' in the world. Thanks again EBAY!
I have only eye examined my purchase, I am in the process of setting up audio equipment. The cd more than passes the eye test, there are no hair line scratches or any other smudges/marks. I had chance to listen to a minute of each song and liked the collaboration between the two GIANTS. The better the sound system, the deeper the penetration of this sweet music/lyrics will be.

This is a great CD. It's not for everyone though. The music of Burt Bacharach, with the vocal stylings of Ronald Isley; a true pop and soul fusion! Like a fresh cup of coffee in the afternoon, it's relaxing and satisfying. Keep in mind, it's not typical Ronald Isley(Isley Brothers), and it's not typical Burt Bacharach, but it is unmistakably Burt and Ronald. Take a listen, you'll be glad you did.
This collaboration does not work for me 100%,but where it does,which is most of the time, the songs come across in a new and more sensitive, soulfull, lovely way. If you enjoy listining to beautiful voice style a Bachrach melody you'll like this one. I would never have expected that the voice I was hearing was one of the Isley Brothers - he should perform balads more often.
I have been a fan of both Bacharach and Isley for many years. To be able to listen to these two perform is the ultimate in easy listening. I realize the CD is from 2003, but so well worth the purchase. I hope you enjoy this CD as much as I have! Cheers...
real good quality

Always been a Burt Bacharach fan and listened to several artists cover his songs. Ron Isleys cover is unique, mellow and smooth. Bacharach tweaked his own original arrangements to complement Isleys voice and style and it just goes to show that guy is a musical genius. I especially love "Close to You"...HOT
