Bob Stanley wrote in The Times earlier this year:
Until relatively recently she was seen as one of a crop of stars of the era famous enough to be known by their first names — Cilla, Sandie, Lulu and Dusty. All of them scored a string of hits between 1964 and the turn of the Seventies; all of them had their own TV series.This recording of the Bacharach and David song reached number three in the UK singles chart in 1966.
Yet whenever a new starlet has appeared this decade, be it Amy Winehouse, Duffy or Adele, Dusty is always the one cited as a reference point.
The best website devoted to Dusty Springfield's life and recordings is Woman of Repute.
