That is not an over dramatization of the events of the last month but rather a prophetic perspective of the years ahead. It seems summed up by the lament of a volunteer rescue worker in New York City, ...read more

Bacharach was reluctant to play it for Jackie DeShannon, but he finally did, and she liked it. Together they recorded, ...read more
