Although she was never considered a Northern Soul artist in her own right, her
efforts contributed a great deal to the formation of the genre. She was the first UK singer
to top the New Musical Express readers’ poll for Female Singer. To boost her credibility
as a soul artist, she went to Memphis to record “Dusty In Memphis,” an album of
pop and soul music with the Atlantic Records production team. Released in 1969, it has
been ranked among the greatest albums of all time by Rolling Stone and in polls by
VH1 artists, and NME readers. The album was also awarded a spot in the
Grammy Hall Of Fame. Despite its recognition, the album did not sell well upon release.
After the album was released, Dusty relocated to America where she experienced
a career slump for several years. However, in collaboration with the Pet Shop Boys, she
returned to the Top 10 of the UK and US charts in 1987 with “What Have I Done To Deserve This?”
Two Years later she had two other UK hits on her own with “Nothing Has Been Proved”
and “In Private.” In the mid-1990s, owing to the inclusion of “Son Of A Preacher Man”
on the Pulp Fiction soundtrack, interest in her early output was revived.
ROG is reissuing this classic and expanding it to include a
second LP of bonus tracks making their debut on vinyl.
