Editoral Review " But DiFranco was playing the lyrics for smirks, which made it hard to wrap yourself up in the performance. Ani DiFranco steals the show with her ace rendition of Dusty Springfield's "Wishin' and Hopin'. Elsewhere, you get Mary-Chapin Carpenter covering "I'll Never Fall in Love Again," a version of "What the World Needs Now Is Love" by Jackie DeShannon; Diana King (of "Stir It Up" fame) doing a lite-reggae version of "I Say a Little Prayer," and a Tony Bennett moment. Burt Bacharach's songs are all over this CD, which is good. But aside from DiFranco and Bennett, many of the artists turned loose to sing them could've been better deployed. Overall, rather slight. --Gavin McNett ..
