Album Notes and Credits

Notes & Personnel Info
Original score composed by Burt Bacharach.
Bacharach's score for this Paul Newman/Robert Redford classic is probably his best-known film work, as it contains the instant standard "Raindrops Keep Fallin' On My Head." "Raindrops," like the similarly infectious "On A Bicycle Built For Joy" is sung in the film by B.J. Thomas. The rest of Bacharach's score is equally impressive, slyly echoing the great scores of the John Ford westerns of the '40s in much the same way the film itself plays with the conventions of the genre.
"Not Goin' Home Anymore," in particular, has the elegiac feel so integral to westerns, while "South American Getaway" has a bossa-nova groove more in keeping with the era in which the film was shot. Though Bacharach is justifiably best known as a songsmith, his film scores are equally impressive, with BUTCH CASSIDY AND THE SUNDACE KID standing as one of his finest.

 
Artist Overview
Co-author (with lyricist Hal David) of an extensive string of hits in the '60s, Burt Bacharach is one of the most respected composer/producers in pop history. In Dionne Warwick, Bacharach found a perfect vehicle for his innovations, which fused uncommon rhythms, creative arrangements, and gorgeous melodies, often bringing the sophistication of classical music and jazz to the Top 40 charts. In the '90s, years after the hits dried up, the burgeoning "lounge" music movement provided him with a resurgence in popularity. His late-'90s collaborations with admirer Elvis Costello were widely lauded.
