Guest Paul Posted April 12, 2009 Share Posted April 12, 2009 Dusty really was the greatest British soul singer. Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Guest MBarrett Posted April 12, 2009 Share Posted April 12, 2009 (edited) Dusty as mod icon. If you were a teenager in the mid-sixties it didn't get much better than a combination of Ready Steady Go and Dusty Springfield. (IMHO) At 1.07 there is Ringo dancing (very badly) with that other great modette Cathy McGowan. Now how could that happen today??!! We really did feel that we owned a piece of these artists. Like they were our big brothers and sisters but we just didn't live in the same house . . . . . !! Edited April 12, 2009 by MBarrett Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Guest MBarrett Posted April 12, 2009 Share Posted April 12, 2009 (edited) Here is Patti Labelle's tribute when Dusty was inducted posthumously into the U.K. Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. It's a stunning performance. Dusty would have been looking down with a great big smile on her face . . . . . .

I have SO many favourites, but "Your Hurtin' Kinda Love" really IS one of the best British soul singles of all time. Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Guest posstot Posted April 13, 2009 Share Posted April 13, 2009 Go ahead on , is the one for me....her most authentic sounding soul record, to my ears at least. I remember her on a dessert island disc or talent show..where she was on the panel...where she mentioned the Orlons as one of her favourite groups.....

Gene-r Posted April 14, 2009 Share Posted April 14, 2009 (edited) Love just about everything Dusty ever recorded, but top of my list has to be her version of "Wishin' & Hopin'" and also "Little By Little". Edited April 14, 2009 by Gene-R Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
