She had a boat-load of hits in the sixties - SON OF A PREACHER MAN (1968) is my favorite. She made a comeback in the eighties with Pet Shop Boys singing WHAT HAVE I DONE TO DESERVE THIS?(1987).

    Just a bit of trivia! Dusty lived on my Police Beat many years ago, and she lived only a few doors away from another 60's female pop singer, Sandie Shaw. There is a Memorial stone dedicated to Dusty at St Mary's Churchyard, Henley-on-Thames - Oxfordshire, a town local to me. Her ashes were scattered in Henley and in Ireland at the Cliffs of Moher.

    Dusty Springfield [Mary Isobel Catherine Bernadette O'Brien] was a prolific English performer in the mid to late 1960 and during the 1960s she ranked among the most successful British female performers on both sides of the Atlantic. However from this peak she faded largely into obscurity although she was still an icon of the ‘swinging sixties’ in the U.K. In the late 1080s she made a mini renaissance with the Pet Shop Boy “What Have I Done To Deserve This”.

    Dusty performed with her brother Tom as the Springfields. I just learned this yesterday and that after they went their own ways he wrote "I'll Never Find Another You" for The Seekers, which reached No. 1 in the United Kingdom in 1965. It received a 1967 US revival as a country music No.1 by Sonny James.

    'Dusty' was a nickname she acquired in her childhood when she would play with her brother and his friends. They apparently called her Dusty because she would get happily get 'dusty' playing their games!
    This was her only UK no.1 hit, the words written in a hurry because they had to record it in short time.
    'Son of a Preacher Man' is perhaps her other best known recording, that I would recommend.
    Her real name was Mary Isobel Catherine Bernadette O'Brian!

The other great voice is Judith Durham of the group The Seekers, though Australian they came to the UK and had a string of UK chart hits. Great songs to check out Cilla's 'Your My World' (number one the day i was born) and Shirleys This Is My Life, Petula 'Downtown', Sandie 'Long Live Love and The Seekers 'The Carnival Is Over'

    You have just heard one of the most influential singers of the last 50 years.Dusty started as a folk singer then transitioned into a single pop singer around 1963( I OnlyWant To Be With You was a Top 10 hit) She became a fixture on variety shows in England and America in the 1960’s and was being thought of as a singer that the parents liked. That changed when Dusty recorded Dusty in Memphis. She merged her stylish voice with Memphis Blues and the Delta soul sounds. This combo was a revelation and this with her look made her a symbol. Female singers that were popular were either counter culture hippie chicks( Janis Joplin) or fashion models( Diana Ross) Dusty was an approachable stylish modern woman. She had the look of a young baby boomer confident woman. Her look and sound paved the way for the modern female pop singer. After you become familiar with Dusty you will hear her voice in many and this includes recent singers like Amy Winehouse. Dusty in Memphis is almost always included in every Top 100 lists.The word you used”!polished” was on the mark,. Thank you for another entertaining reaction. Great and entertaining channel

    Dusty was a pioneer in many ways , true blue eyed soul.
    She brought many Motown artists to the UK in the 60s citing them as her influences .
    At the heart of Apartheid in South Africa she was due to appear in concert,the caveat in her agreement was she insisted on playing to a multi racial audience, when she arrived she discovered that the powers that be would only permit a white only audience , she refused to perform and returned to the UK.
    She has an awesome back catalogue, my personal favourite is The Look of Love , sexy sensual and so soulful.

    Dusty(Mary O'Brien) was one of the greatest singers ever inducted into the Rock n Roll Hall of Fame. Many very good songs. I only Wanna be with you, Son of a Preacher Man, A Brand New Me, Wishing and Hoping, and more. Noted as with Linda Ronstat to do covers as good or better than the original. One Example Anyone who Had a Heart by Dionne Warwick.

    I was introduced to music at a very young age, but it still surprises me when I remember lyrics to a song like this that came out when I was 6. Some other songs by Dusty Springfield are "Son of a Preacher Man", "Wishin' and Hopin'", "The Look of Love", and "The Windmills of Your Mind".

    There is no category you can put Dusty into. She is her own category. First time I heard "I Only Want To Be With You" she owned me. 🥰I have a lot of her stuff. She sings in French too.

    The "British Invasion" of the 60's is usually remembered for the bands of the time, like the Beatles and Stones. But included in this invasion was some wonderful female singers, led by the great Dusty Springfield. Anything you listen to of hers will be great, also listen to Petula Clark, Sandie Shaw, Marianne Faithful, Lulu and Others from the same time period.

    Great great singer, numerous classic dramatic hits and one classic album 'Dusty in Memphis'. Apparently she suffered from nerves badly and went to record it at Muscle Shoals but was so intimdated by them they had to record the backing tracks and Dusty went to NYC to sing over them. She had a very difficult time with her sexuality and her private life but made a comeback with the Pet Shop Boys in the 80's and sadly passed in 1999, something of an enigma really she was shy and retiring but hugely respected by everyone.

    Dusty first heard this sung by Pino Donnagio, who was also the composer, at the San Remo Song Festival in 1965. She brought it back to the UK and commissioned her friend Vicky Wickham to write the English lyrics. She recorded it in 1966. The original title is "Io che non vivo senza te"

    Mary O Brian was part of a popular British group named"The Springfields" with her brother who gave her the nickname "Dusty" when they were kids ~ when the group broke up ~ she adopted the group name for a solo career & the nickname for her first name ~ she became the leading British female singer at the height of the British Invasion

    How's the vocal timing and cadence?
    Revisiting Dusty, this brought me to tears in the first minute. Just the unique tone of her voice, I can't even wrap my head around it. No wonder so many have been captivated by her.

    It is the cover of a 1965 Italian song by Pino Donaggio and Vito Pallavicini, titled "Io che non vivo (senza te)". "Io che non vivo (senza te)" ("I, who can't live (without you)") was introduced at the 15th edition of the Sanremo Festival by Pino Donaggio - who had co-written the song with Vito Pallavicini - and his team partner Jody Miller. The song reached the final at Sanremo and, as recorded by Donaggio, reached No. 1 in Italy in March 1965.

    This incredibly talented woman was considered to be the first white female soul singer. The artists that she enjoyed listening to were many of the black artists of the 60s. Dusty had SOUL. One of her last before she departed was a song called "What have I done to deserve this" with the Pet Shop boys. A wonderful dance song. Really one of the best. Sam, your instant reaction was right on the money. "Soulful sound". Very nice....You guys are the best. Keep up the good reactions.

    It is the cover of a 1965 Italian song by Pino Donaggio and Vito Pallavicini, titled "Io che non vivo (senza te)" Dusty Springfield's real name was Mary O'Brien, born to Irish parents in London She was given the nickname "Dusty" for playing football with boys in the street and was described as a tomboy. Springfield was raised in a music-loving family. Her father tapped out rhythms on the back of her hand and encouraged her to guess the musical piece. Mary Isobel Catherine Bernadette O'Brien OBE, better known by her stage name Dusty Springfield, was an English singer. With her distinctive mezzo-soprano sound, she was a popular singer of blue-eyed soul, pop and dramatic ballads, with French chanson, country, and jazz in her repertoire. Peace out.

    Dusty has a huge catalogue of hits, but go back to her beginnings and check out some of her performances with The Springfields: @Bambino', 'Silver Threads & Golden Needles', 'Island of Dreams' and 'Say I won't be There'.

    Dusty Springfield, Blue Eyed Soul. The Look Of Love, Son of a Preacher Man are just 2 of her many hit's. Trivia fact she was a big Beatles fan, George was her favorite Beatle. Back in the day when everyone had a favorite Beatle. You can never have to much Dusty. Cheers, Chris Perry.

    Dusty Springfield was big a few years in the sixties... As I remember, she probably had about half a dozen or so hits that did well... She didn't have a crazy wild voice like some people did in the 60s that were trying to be relevant during that time but she did have a nice middle of the road kind of voice which was very easy to listen to...Elvis Presley did a cover of this song in the early seventies in his live concerts and did well with it...Dusty was probably best known for her hit some " Son of a Preacher Man "... I'm sure you've seen that mentioned in a lot of your comments and it is well worth a lesson... Another great reaction guys... See you on the next one... Keep Being Awesome !!!...
