About

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. --Jason Ankeny, Allmusic -- Track listing 01 -- You Don’t Have To Say You Love Me 02 -- I Only Want To Be With You 03 -- Just Don’t Know What To Do With Myself 04 -- Stay Awhile 05 -- Wishin’ And Hopin’ 06 -- Your Hurtin’ Kinda Love 07 -- Losing You 08 -- In The Middle Of Nowhere 09 -- Some Of Your Lovin’ 10 -- Little By Little 11 -- I Close My Eyes And Count To Ten 12 -- All I See Is You 13 -- I’ll Try Anything 14 -- The Look Of Love 15 -- Give Me Time 16 -- Am I The Same Girl 17 -- Goin’ Back 18 -- Son Of A Preacher Man * 19 -- How Can I Be Sure 20 -- Don’t Forget About Me * Produced by John Franz Except * produced by Jerry Wexler, Tom Dowd, Arif Mardin.
