The Dells Sing Dionne Warwicke's Greatest Hits is an album by the vocal group The Dells consisting of music written by Burt Bacharach & Hal David and originally performed by Dionne Warwick.
The album debuted on Billboard magazine's Top LP's & Tape chart in the issue dated June 24, 1972, peaking at No. 162 during a five-week run on the chart.
From Dusty Groove: <blockquote>Chess Records takes on the music of Burt Bacharach, with amazing results â thanks to deep soul vocals from The Dells and impeccable production from the legendary Charles Stepney! The album's a tremendous meeting of the minds, as The Dells really transform Bacharach's brilliant compositions â giving them depth and feeling in ways that are quite different from any other renditions of the songs. The arrangements by Stepney are incredible too â on a par with his famous work for Minnie Riperton, Rotary Connection, and Ramsey Lewis â as majestic as Burt Bacharach might have wanted, but with a very different approach, and a slight undercurrent of funk. Instrumentation is by Stepney, Phil Upchurch, and members of The Pharaohs â plus a full string section as well. Another baroque soul classic from the glory days of the Chicago soul scene! </blockquote>
