  NationMaster - Encyclopedia: Dee Dee Warwick
Dee Dee Warwick is an African-American soul singer, the sister of Dionne Warwick.
Warwick is inescapably associated with those songs, even though she managed to build a career after leaving Bacharach and David that drew upon their style for other memorable recordings, such that she remains a unique figure in popular music.
Warwick bounced back with "Then Came You," a song she recorded with the Spinners, which topped the pop and R&B charts and reached the Top Five of the easy listening charts in October 1974, going gold in the process.

 Dee Dee Warwick - Biography - AOL Music
Dee Dee began singing with her older sister Dionne as a teenager in the 1950s.
During her early career, Dee Dee was content to make a comfortable living as a backup singer.
Dee Dee's '60s recordings, while much less successful than Dionne's, were good New York pop/soul with a more pronounced R&B influence than her sister's.

 I Want To Be With You - Dee Dee Warwick, Music Downloads - Online
The younger Warwick's rawer approach was closer to Aretha's but, when she slides into the high notes, the similarities to sister Dionne are obvious.
Warwick lays into the bluesy "That's Not Love" like Etta James, causing distortion as she hauls off and wails with soul-searing power.
Ultimately, Warwick was a substantial talent who didn't find her niche, or land songwriters of the Bacharach/David stature to guide her.

 Dee Dee Warwick - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Dee Dee Warwick (born September 25, 1945 in Newark Heights, New Jersey as Delia Mae Warrick) is an African-American soul singer.
Following the example of her elder sister Dionne Warwick, she changed her name from Warrick to Warwick in the early 1960s.
She is best known for her hits during the 1960s, including the #13 RandB hit "I'm Gonna Make You Love Me", co-written by Kenneth Gamble and Leon Huff and later covered by Diana Ross and the Supremes, The Temptations, and Play.

The song was originally recorded by Dionne Warwick's younger sister Dee Dee Warwick for the Mercury Records label in 1967.
American born, but England-based singer Madeline Bell recorded the first Top 40 version of the song for Philips Records, which peaked at #32 on the Pop charts and #29 on the RandB charts.

It is easier to define Dionne Warwick by what she isn't rather than what she is. Although she grew up singing in church, she is not a gospel singer.
That summer, Warwick topped the R&B LP charts with her gold-selling Here Where There Is Love album and by the fall, Scepter had amassed enough chart singles to issue Dionne Warwick's Golden Hits, Pt.
In 1985, Warwick was reconciled with Bacharach and she organized a charity recording of his and Carole Bayer Sager's song "That's What Friends Are For" to benefit AIDS, featuring Elton John, Gladys Knight, and Stevie Wonder, in addition to herself.

 DEE DEE WARWICK LINER NOTES   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
Looking back, Dee Dee says that her decision to leave Atco was based in the company's inability to focus at the time on any other female artist outside their two superstar divas, Aretha Franklin and Roberta Flack.
Dee Dee re-signed with Mercury in late 1973 and the label released one single, "All The Love That Went To Waste" (the theme for the movie "A Touch Of Class") and although it received strong reviews, it failed to register.
After living in Los Angeles for a number of years, Dee Dee moved to Georgia in 1994, and at the time of writing, she is working on a project based on the life of Dinah Washington.

 Musical Taste: Filter tracks
Dionne's lil' sister, in contrast to her sibling's restrained niceties, proves what a gorgeous, wholesome howl she has in a track voluminous with vehemence and the hope of joy hereafter.
Warwick travels effortlessly between poles of frustration and hope over the underdone orchestration (a compliment: if the backing was as heartfelt as Dee Dee we'd be wading into Celine Dion territory).
And, in the age of Eamon and his bleep-a-ramas, it's deeply satisfying to hear a word such as "damn" being expressed as if it were the nastiest expletive possible.

 The Number One Songs In Heaven: Number One's Greatest Hits
These two Dee Dee Warwick numbers were originally posted in September 2004 and I think "I Haven't Got Anything Better To Do" in particular is one of the greatest songs I've ever put up.
Her 60s and early 70s recordings are collected on I Want to Be With You: The Mercury/Blue Rock Sessions which is such a tremendous album I had a hard time picking a tune (or two) from it.
Dee Dee's records had the same classy, uptown sound as her sister but with a far more soulful edge which you can hear on an uplifting groover like "We're Doing Fine" from 1965.

 Dee Dee Warwick Biography and Update at SoulTracks
It was an inevitability that Dee Dee would pursue a musical career: the Drinkards were formed by Dee Dee’s mother, Lee and sister Emily along with uncles Larry and Nicholas and aunt Ann and they were already making their mark thanks to pioneer recordings for Verve and RCA.
The whole session blew me away.” Dee Dee’s version of “Alfie” didn’t gain a U.S. release for a couple of years, during which time – in an unfortunate turn of events for her – sister Dionne recorded the song and had a massive U.S. hit with it.
Naturally, Dee Dee was not happy: she hoped that subsequent sessions would restore her to hit status at Mercury.

David Nathen is not wrong when on his sleeve note's he sites her as "one of the most soulful, underrated singers of all time." which could be in part due to the fame of her big sister Dionne.

 Dick and Dee Dee
When a song she and Dick wrote and recorded becomes a national hit, sudden fame pushes her into singing and touring and no one is more surprised than "Little Mary," still juggling classes, a candy store job, and writing songs on the side.
From 1964 and 1966, the duo performs as semi-regulars on the national television show, "Shindig." In the process, Dee Dee learns to find her own voice and starts to forge her own identity.
Whether traveling on an integrated tour in segregated Texas, struggling with Dick's demands, entering a romantic relationship with her manager or observing quiet moments at Lake Shrine, "Vinyl Highway" illuminates the dark side of fame in the 1960's and offers glimpses of hope and light for the future.

As for the Dee Dee Warwick - on any other day, Dionne's younger sister wouldn't be forced to play the second fiddle role: I like a lot of her songs and this one is no exception: a very well-down soul blaster by the undersung vocalist.
