In 1974, “Then Came You”, by Dionne Warwicke (the way she billed herself as with the ʹeʹ at the end) and the Spinners, went solid gold this day by the RIAA. While the editors are pouring over the proper spelling of “Dionne Warwicke”, might we add that due to some superstitious feeling, having to do with astrology, the former Ms. Warwick changed her name for good luck to Warwicke. It apparently worked. That is until she went solo again, upon meeting Barry Manilow in the early '80s. Tunes like, “Iʹll Never Love This Way Again”, “Deja Vu” and hits with Johnny Mathis, Luther Vandross and some friends made it OK to be just Dionne Warwick again. Itʹs the first number one of her career.
