Dusty Springfield - Full Circle
Background Information: Dusty Springfield [Top] Dusty Springfield was a British singer, regarded by many as one of the finest white soul singers of all time. She was born in Hampstead, London as Mary Isabel Catherine Bernadette OBrien & was a fan of Peggy Lee from an early age. Her first professional musical group was the Lana Sisters, who issued a few singles. Later, she & her brother, Dion & Tim Field formed The Springfields, a folk trio. OBrien took the name Dusty Springfield after forming the group, which soon became a popular act in Britain with singles such as Breakaway & Bambino. By 1962, the Springfields had some success in the United States with Silver Threads & Golden Needles. The Springfields travelled to Nashville, Tennessee. Dusty was so enamored of Motown, particularly the girl groups, that she left the Springfields to pursue a solo career in soul music. Her first single was I Only Want to Be With You, which was a success in both Britain & the United States.
