Annotation:
Dusty Springfield's DUSTY IN MEMPHIS the inaugural volume in the excellent 33 1/3 series, in which writers explore notable albums and their multiple levels of meaning. Here, musician Warren Zanes journeys inside perhaps the most important album in Dusty Springfield's career. With this classic 1968 recording, the singer made the leap from performing classy soul-influenced pop to becoming one of the first bona-fide white soul singers, recording deep inside geographical and artistic territory previously the almost exclusive province of black American R&B artists. With interviews with major figures involved in its recording, and an expanded meditation on the album's wider significance that is a hallmark of this admirable series, Zanes illuminates DUSTY IN MEMPHIS with the insights of a true believer.
