Music reviews of A Girl Called Dusty
Music Review: Dusty's music is her legacy to us all
Rating: 5 Stars
A Girl Called Dusty was the first record album released by Dusty Springfield; and it turned out to be quite a brilliant debut! Even in our times this music sounds so good; I can put this anytime into my CD player and enjoy it no matter what. Dusty's ability to sing so many types of ballads impresses me; she always gave blood to please and thrill her fans. The sound on this album is excellent and I like the artwork.
The CD starts with Dusty outdoing even herself on a cover of "Mama Said." "Mama Said" has a fine musical arrangement and Dusty never skips a beat--terrific! "You Don't Own Me" features Dusty squarely front and center, which is quite all right by me! "You Don't Own Me" gets quite a passionate delivery from Dusty; and her excellent diction enhances her singing all the more. "Do Re Mi (Forget About the Do and Think About Me)" has an awesome beat; Dusty sings this to perfection! She handles complex tempo and key changes like the pro she was and always will remain. "When the Lovelight Starts Shining through His Eyes" has a most spirited arrangement; and "My Coloring Book" is beautiful even if the lyrics aren't exactly all that happy.
"Mockingbird" sounds sweet when Dusty Springfield performs it so well; I love it! Listen also for "Nothing Has Been Proved." "Nothing Has Been Proved" has some nice backup vocalizing--not that Dusty truly needed it but they do sound good anyway. "Anyone Who Had a Heart" stuns me with its beauty; this Burt Bacharach and Hal David tune shines when Dusty sings it! "Will You Still Love Me Tomorrow," a song written by Gerry Goffin and Carole King, is quite powerful in Dusty's capable hands and I could never tire of hearing Dusty sing this song; it's truly awesome. "Wishin' and Hopin'" gets the royal treatment from Dusty and the percussion works wonders for the musical arrangement.
The alternate mix of "I Only Want to Be with You" is very creative; it all holds its own very well. "Every Day I Have to Cry" is another bonus track; and Dusty never sounded better! "Can I Get a Witness" is absolutely electric and that piano makes the music fit perfectly with Dusty's singing--she never falters, either. "All Cried Out" is very pretty even if it's not a happy song; and I also like "Once Upon a Time" with that music--what an arrangement! Dusty delivers this faultlessly and I like that the CD provides this as one of the bonus tracks. The CD ends with the last bonus track entitled "Summer Is Over." Dusty sings "Summer Is Over" with all her heart and soul and I'm very impressed.
Dusty Springfield lives on through her music; she will never be forgotten. This is a wonderful album for Dusty's fans; and people just discovering her magical artistry will not be disappointed.
