solid-gold pop composer Burt Bacharach with lyrics by Hal David.
Mr. Bacharach introduced to Broadway not only the insistently rhythmic, commercial-jingle buoyancy of 1960's soft-core radio fare, but also a cinematic use of Teflon-smooth, offstage backup vocals."
The best-known songs from the musical include the title song, which was an international hit for Dionne Warwick, released before the show's December 1968 Broadway opening, "I'll Never Fall in Love Again", a hit for Warwick in the US and Canada and for Bobbie Gentry in the UK, "Knowing When To Leave" (also recorded by Warwick), "She Likes Basketball" and "Turkey Lurkey Time," a dance number featuring McKechnie, Lee and Sappington.
Warwick also recorded "Whoever You Are (I Love You)" and "Wanting Things" in 1968 before the show opening and released on her 1968 Scepter LP "Promises, Promises."
