She white. She English. She legendary.

[andrewtims]

Blue eyed soul at it's finest, yes, she is white, she is English and she is an absolute legend

[johnreilly]

Dusty was a trailblazer during the apartheid era in the 60s she was booked for performances in South Africa, she was promised she would play to a mixed audience.
When she arrived there the South African government said it would be white only audiences.
She refused to play and returned immediately to the Uk .
She openly supported black acts.
Her voice was full of soul. I would recommend her track The Look of Love it's sexy sultry and sublime

[scottluvisi]

in my 53 years of life, I have learned soul dose not come from the skin, it comes from the heart. If you have a heart, you can be soulful.

[marklynn]

If you’ve seen Pulp Fiction, this is a big part of the movie.

[hockeydad]

Dude, I know it's hard. But, believe it or not when music came on the radio before MTV, nobody gave a shit what color the singer was. Good was good and we listened to it.

[MoonlightDagger]

You'll be surprised to know that she was from England; sadly, she passed away in 1999 from breast cancer at the age of 59. Her voice was pure gold, however.

Many years ago I was in Henley-on-Thames, UK, and walked into the local graveyard. I came across Dusty's headstone and started to cry. A fully grown man crying (I'm 68 now and tearing up writing this). What a voice. A legend. We miss you Dusty.

Dusty Springfield was a big fan of Motown and she was one of the only white singers who could get close to the sound of the Detroit label's records. She was hugely responsible for bringing the sound and its artists to the UK audience.

[rawschri]

She recorded this around 10 weeks after Elvis had walked into the very same American Sound studios, with the same musicians at 2272 Deadrick Avenue, Memphis. Elvis had cut " Suspicious Minds " and " In the Ghetto " there in those sessions. The " Sweet Inspirations ", Elvis's female backing group from 1969-77 also provided the backing sound on Dusty's Album ... as you might know, one of the group at that time was Cissie Houston, mother of Whitney. Neil Diamond's " Sweet Caroline " was recorded there in the same time period ... as you say, there was definitely something in the water in Memphis at that time ...

Dusty Springfield was born Mary Isobel Catherine Bernadette O'Brien in London on April 16, 1939. She died in 1999 of breast cancer. Shortly before her death she was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and was given the Order of the British Empire (OBE).

Dusty’s “You Don’t Have to Say You Love Me” is my number one favorite song of all time. RIP.

[brianjupp]

You paid her the greatest compliment for her sound. She loved the blues and did her best to introduce black artists from the States to the UK .

[AceAnnie-]

Dusty is a legend. As others have said, she was British. She loved soul and gospel and was instrumental in bringing black musicians over from the States and onto mainstream tv in the 60’s.
She was great friends with Martha Reeves and there is some lovely footage of them both singing together and they had so much fun together!
She was famous for her heavy eye make up, but always claimed that was because her eyesight was so poor.
She was also gay, but didn’t come out until much later in her career.

[stephenstrudwick]

"Son of a Preacher Man" was offered initially to Aretha Franklin because the song's writers thought it suited her sound and the fact that her father was a Minister. Aretha turned the song down because she thought it was disrespectful to her father. It was then suggested that Britain’s Dusty Springfield would be ideal. Dusty was in the States recording her album Dusty In Memphis, so they contacted her and she travelled to New York to hear and then record the song.

[Jeff_Lichtman]

As others have already said, Dusty Springfield was British. Her background was Irish, but she was born in London and lived in Britain for much of her life.

There are several videos of her performing on TV. She sang "You Don't Have to Say You Love Me" on at least a couple of different shows.

"Son of a Preacher Man" was used in the movies "Pulp Fiction" and "What's Love Got to Do with It."

[peterjack]

White, British, died in 1999 at the age of 59 from breast cancer. Inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame two weeks after her death. Is considered, with the Beatles, to be part of the British Invasion of the 60's. This song has been sampled at least 12 times by everyone from Cypress Hill to Wu-Tang Clan.

[KevinHarris-qucd]

Its not the color, its the heart that puts out the sound

[akronrats]

I love it when you get totally blown away by something I've heard (and loved) for years. 👍

[roseoconnor]

Dusty's real passion was soul music....she went to America, but it didn't work out. Huge rabbit hole to go down 😊
