The album delivers a mix of a) three JD original compositions, b) reinterpretations of three pop hits (Stevie Wonder's Golden Lady, Lennon and McCartney's And I Love Her, Burt Bacharach \u0026amp; Hal David's What the World Needs Now, and c) four poignant romantic Jazz Standards. The implicit hope for this album is a plea for peace and love, as highlighted by the title song What the World Needs Now. Although the words seem quite simple as a pop hit, it took Hal David two years to complete them, given that the controversy of the Vietman War was an underlying meaning of his lyrics.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTracks:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e1.1 Golden Lady \u003cbr\u003e1.2 I Was Telling Her About You \u003cbr\u003e1.3 What the World Needs Now \u003cbr\u003e1.4 Dressed In A Song \u003cbr\u003e1.5 Beautiful Moons Ago \u003cbr\u003e1.6 Tell Her I Said Hello \u003cbr\u003e1.7 And I Love Her \u003cbr\u003e1.8 Keisha’s Coy \u003cbr\u003e1.9 It Never Entered My Mind \u003cbr\u003e1.10 Now It’s Time To Go\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Walter, J.D.","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":40093267591239,"sku":"43513222","price":12.98,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2976\/0132\/files\/4212290-2979278.jpg?v=1711798628","url":"https:\/\/tower.com\/products\/walter-j-d-what-the-world-nneds-now","provider":"Tower Records","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
