In 1969 English pop singer Dusty Springfield released a record which has gone on to be viewed as one of the definitive albums of her career. With her distinctive mezzo-soprano sound she was an important singer of blue-eyed soul, and at her peak was one of the most successful British female performers, with six Top 20 singles on the U.S. Billboard Hot 100 and 16 on the U.K. Singles Chart from 1963 to 1989. She is a member of the Rock and Roll Hall Of Fame and U.K. Music Hall of Fame.
To boost her credibility as a soul artist, she went to Memphis to record Dusty In Memphis, an album of pop and soul music, with the Atlantic Records production team.The album’s tracks were produced by a trifecta of musical geniuses (Tom Dowd, Arif Mardin, and Jerry Wexler), with conducting and arranging by Gene Orloff not long after his success on Aretha Franklin’s Aretha Arrives, backing vocals by the Sweet Inspirations, and music by Reggie Young, Tommy Cogbill, and Gene Chrisman.
Featuring such signature numbers as “So Much Love,” “Son of a Preacher Man,” “Breakfast in Bed,” “Just One Smile” “I Don’t Want to Hear About It Anymore,” and “Just a Little Lovin,” Dusty In Memphis is true Southern soul and a pop masterpiece that has inspired countless tributes and incessant praise, including being ranked among the greatest albums of all time by Rolling Stone, NME readers, and in polls by VH1 artists. The album was also awarded a spot in the Grammy Hall Of Fame. Inspired, timeless, and transcendent this record belongs in every collection. Run Out Groove remastered this classic and expanded it to include a second LP of 14 bonus tracks making their debut on vinyl.
