I dig this record. It takes the"classic" Bacharach sound, and makes it sound retro contemporary, lots of analog-sounding synths, drum loops from Dr. Dre. Its good to see a pop genius sound relevant with something like that, and not cringe-worthy or gimmicky. As far as vocals, its none too bad,and its not like Burt sings on every song, theres Elvis Costello and Rufus Wainwright among others on there as well.
