DUSTY SPRINGFIELD

with GENE CHRISMAN drums, BOBBY WOOD piano, REGGIE YOUNG guitar & sitar,

 TOMMY COGBILL bass, BOBBY EMMONS organ & electric piano  

Britain's greatest pop diva, Dusty Springfield was also the finest white soul singer of her era, 

a performer of remarkable emotional resonance whose body of work spans the decades 

and their attendant musical transformations with a consistency and purity unmatched by any 

of her contemporaries; though a camp icon of glamorous excess in her towering beehive 

hairdo and panda-eye black mascara, the sultry intimacy and heartbreaking urgency 

of Springfield's voice transcended image and fashion, embracing everything 

from lushly orchestrated pop to gritty R&B to disco with unparalleled sophistication and depth

Sometimes memories distort or inflate the quality of recordings deemed legendary, 

but in the case of Dusty in Memphis, the years have only strengthened its reputation. 

The idea of taking England's reigning female soul queen to the home of the music 

she had mastered was an inspired one. TheJerry Wexler/Tom Dowd/Arif Mardin production 

and engineering team picked mostly perfect songs, and those that weren't so great 

were salvaged by Springfield's marvelous delivery and technique. 

This set has definitive numbers in "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'". 

It's truly a disc deserving of its classic status...(AllMusic)
