Here's my version, from Chuck Sher's Standards Real Book. I've also added a few passing bass notes.

P.S. Posted in the Jazz section because it's an excellent improvisation vehicle.

You really are on top of things.

What The World Needs Now

What The World Needs Now - Bacharach/D. Hazeltine
David Hazeltine's arrangement (close to it anyway). https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BhECm_uiqyQ The diminished chords in letter B are to be played with major 7ths.

That version sounds pretty much like the original.

That version sounds pretty much like the original.

Yes with a few bars added at the end. Also the V7 of vi going into the bridge seems to be absent on the solo.
