One Gal's Musings..I discovered her a little late but I'm glad I found her all the same.. Dusty Springfield, that is. I grew up thinking of her as the blonde who sang"Son of a Preacher Man." Oh, and I loved her ultimate 1960s look. All teased hair and fake lashes. She and Michelle Phillips defined 1960s fashfor me. Really, that's all I knew of her.http://onegalsmusings.blogspot.com/2008/09/i-discovered-her-little-late-im-glad-i.html

A Girl Called DustyA Girl Called Dusty was the debut album of British singer Dusty Springfield. It was released in the UK on Philips Records in 1964. Dusty Springfihad been a member of the girl group The Lana Sisters from 1958 to 1960, and the folk-pop trio The Springfields from 1960-1963, in the latter with her with her brother Tom Springfield. During that time she had toured outside of London, and even Britain. While in the US she was exposto soul music, which was to have a profound impact on her subsequent life and career. Although The Springfields were moderately successfulwith songs such as "Island Of Dreams", "Bambino" and "Silver Threads And Golden Needles" (a #16 US country hit), their style of music limitedwide range of material that Dusty Springfield wanted to sing. Therefore, in 1963, Springfield decided to begin a career as a solo singer. Her firsingle, "I Only Want To Be With You", was actually recorded while still a member of The Springfields, and was released one week after their finconcert..http://musicmoadom.blogspot.com/2008/09/dusty-springfield-girl-called-dusty.html

The musicians using their religionThe only one who could ever reach Dusty Springfield, she told us back in 1969, was the son of a preacher man. As the hit single from her besalbum - Dusty in Memphis - it is the song that defines Springfield for most of us.

Not worth a Shout! - panned by The MetroSometimes a show offers a stark reminder of how tough a jobbing performer's life is. Shout! is vacuous, cynical and, in the main, flesh-creepinawful. It's neither the fault of the classically trained cast or Claire Sweeney who, despite a charmless nasal bellow, gives it both barrels.

Snoop du JourMay 21 - June 20 GeminiDuring the sign of Gemini in 1967, June 12 to be exact, the album Dusty in Memphis by Dusty Springfield was released. A great year for greatrecords, this one was produced by Arif Mardin and Jerry Wexler and engineered by Tom Dowd. Those three names on any album virtuallyguarantees a classic. Rolling Stone placed it as Number 89 in the Top 500 Greatest Albums of All Time: …blazing soul and sexual honesty…thattranscended both race and geography. The back-up singers were the Sweet Inspirations and the band was Reggie Young’s Memphis Cats. Reamore about the fascinating story behind this record in renowned music historian Warren Zanes’ fascinating book Dusty in Memphis, part of the1/3 book series.

Advertising Age and THAT Dusty TV Ad....this 1960s Dusty Springfield ad for Mother's Pride makes a little more sense when you can understand why she's rudely waking everyone up tea and white bread..http://adage.com/songsforsoap/post?article_id=131412

And if you have never seen the Dusty television advert, this site has it :)

My Evil HeartShe’s got Elvis Costello singing with her on one song, and the Watson Twins, too, on some, but the main deal is that the songs are just goodThere’s like, some Dusty Springfield, and even, dare I say, some Joni Mitchell up in there. But mostly, you’re just thinking, “Oh, good song.”http://myevilheart.blogspot.com/2008/10/i-said-god-damn-henshaw-i-aint-even.html

Dusty DiscographyDusty Springfield was probably the greatest female pop singer to come out of Britain and Ireland (Dusty was English-born with Irish parents).Having a wide vocal range, and a voice which could move through the gears effortlessly, Dusty's vulnerability - both in her voice and personamade her such a beloved singer of the 1960s to the present day..http://www.booksmusicfilmstv.com/DustySpringfield.htm

Music Review: SolangeSolange Knowles' sophomore album "SoL-AngeL and the Hadley Street Dreams" sounds a little bit as if it was recorded in the wrong decade.Indeed, Solange credits her inspiration for this album to Dusty Springfield, The Supremes and The Marvelettes; the sound is evocative of all othese artists..www.thechanticleeronline.com/media/storage/paper670/news/2008/10/02/ArtsEntertainment/Music.Review.Solange-3467259.shtml"target="_blank">http://media.www.thechanticleeronline.com/media/storage/paper670/news/2008/10/02/ArtsEntertainment/Music.Review.Sola3467259.shtml

From The Music of Nick and Norah's Infinite Playlist by Drake Lelane at Film.com Oct 6: Rachel Cohn recently provided a list of all the

music mentioned in [her] novel [on which the film is based], which, in many respects, would've made for a better film, perhaps on with High Fidelity. Telling that the only artist that made it into this adaptation (Dusty Springfield, albeit with a different song, YouDon't Have To Say You Love Me) wasn't included on the soundtrack [album].

I'll try to find out what Dusty track is mentioned in the novel - bet it's SOAPM!

The San Diego Union Tribune Oct 9 on Duffy: Duffy's debut album is steeped in the music of the 1960s in general, with specific nods

various Motown Records greats (think The Supremes & Smokey Robinson), Dionne Warwick, Phil Spector's fabled “Wall of Sound”records with Darlene Love, & such vintage Duffy favorites as The Walker Brothers & Ann Peebles. Yet, it is the late Dusty Springfielwhom Duffy is most often compared by music critics, even though only one song on Rockferry – the album-closing Distant Dreameis especially reminiscent of Springfield. The comparisons suggest lazy journalism, since Duffy's eye makeup & big blonde hair are fmore suggestive of Springfield than her voice.

“In the beginning, I didn't understand all the comparisons, because I never even met this woman,” said Duffy, whose singing styleevokes that of 1960s It girl Lulu a lot more than Springfield. “I knew Dusty's songs & some of her records. But I was so heavily linkit was like people thought I was a new version of her, which annoys me because nobody is replaceable. I find it quite amusing, rea

Duffy plays the opening gig of her North American tour in San Diego tonight.

Sharleen Spiteri in the Daily Star Oct 10 in answer to interviewer James Cabooter's question: There's a lot of great female voices out there

the moment, do you feel like you opened the door?: Not really, there's always been great women in music. Every generation has hadgreat female talent it's nothing new. I feel we're still in the dark ages a bit when it comes to women in music. People still lump us atogether and say things like 'girls are taking over'. But girls have been making their mark on the charts for decades whether it'sMadonna or Dusty Springfield or Amy Winehouse.

Bell's A-Poppin'Madeline Bell is another soul vocalist who was trained in the gospel tradition, joining The Glovertones in her homestate of New Jersey when shwas 16-years-old. She later teamed up with the Alex Bradford Singers, with whom she eventually traveled across America and Europe as partthe cast of Langston Hughes' "Black Nativity". Upon completion of the tour, Bell decided to make her home in the UK, cutting her own singles doing background vocals for artists such as Dusty Springfield and Doris Troy. Bell's A Poppin' was her 1967 full-length solo debut album (on UK's RPM Records), an effort which thoroughly illustrates her poise and sophistication as a world-class vocalist..http://souledonmusic.blogspot.com/2008/10/we-can-funk-until-dawn.html
