Dusty really was the greatest British soul singer.

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 . . . . . !!

WHATS IT GOIN TO BE.......one of my all time favourites

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 . . . . . .

It was also the 10th anniversary of her death recently, we're doing a Dusty special at 'Da Doo Ron Ron' in May...plug plug.

So many great tunes, my fave will always be 'All cried out', such emotion!

Hardly a day goes by when I don't play at least one Dusty Springfield record.

I have SO many favourites, but "Your Hurtin' Kinda Love" really IS one of the best British soul singles of all time.

SHE COULD SING ANYTHING SO EFFORTLESSLY, AMONG MY FAVOURITES AS INDEED THERE ARE SO MANY ARE...

HAUNTED

Always been "Hurting Kinda Love" and "Some Of Your Loving" for me!

Sean

I cant wait to see my babys face

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.....

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".

Bit late with this but I like her version of Walters "Welcome Home"
