What The World Needs Now Is Love (Bacharach-David) by Jackie De Shannon, arranged & conducted by Burt Bacharach
Arranged and conducted by the composer Burt Bacharach, this Bacharach-Hal David love anthem remains one of the duo’s best-known and most-recorded song hits. It returned to the top 10 in 1971 in the part-spoken Tom Clay recording “What the World Needs Now Is Love/Abraham Martin and John.”
