There’s really nothing that I can say about Dusty Springfield that you won’t learn by just listening to her sing.

    This is one of the best albums ever recorded in the 70s, these are 3 of her best songs… thanks for speading the Dusty love! I don’t know any emoticons for “gushing goober of a fan” so I leave it at that.

    I wholeheartedly agree. And would even extend that to one of the best albums ever recorded. It was really hard to pick out what to post because they’re all just that great.

    Oh it’s most definitely one of the best ever recorded. I always loved Dusty, and when I was about 10 I was on a car trip with my daddy, and we found this tape at a truck stop in North Carolina, and listened to it all the way back to KY. I have three copies of this on vinyl - all given to me by bfs trying to get on my good side! I LOVE the way it sounds on vinyl.

    fantabulously sexy and just the best…have loved her stuff for years and her performance on Jools Holland was just stunning. I always thought The Tourists ruined I only want to be with you. But hey, who am I ? Annie Lennox went on to be one of the biggest stars on the planet.

    Dusty got a personal voice. It excels for her own. Obviously she was white… but I think it was respected by black singers.
    Nice post!!
