Dusty Springfield was HUGE in the 1960s and 70s, especially in her native UK (yup, that's a white English woman with all that soul). From mid-60s bright pop like "You Don't Have to Say You Love Me" to her super-sultry version of "Spooky," Dusty brought it.

@@JamesBrendon-h4r what are you listening to? I agree for the most part, nothing can compare to the raw, no filter talent back in the day. The current music I love is from independent artists I find on You Tube or Spotify, certainly not radio. Ren, Jelly Roll, Clairo, Benson Boone, Chinchilla, HAIM, Knox Hill, boygenius, The Black Keys, X Ambassadors, Prof, the first couple albums of my favorite band twentyone pilots were independent and imo their best. Every genre has indie artists that deserve a listen.

When I first heard Dusty sing in the USA on her first release "I Only Wanna Be With You" I was 8 years old, I knew this woman had IT. Dusty Springfield was the second artist of the British Invasion, [including some Irish and Scottish] after the Beatles, to have a hit. the The Beatles, interviewed by singer Dusty Springfield on their first-ever appearance on the British television program "Ready Steady Go!" on October 4th 1963. They knew her well. The British took our rock and roll and soul, dumped it back in our lap while we script through teen crooners, dance crazes and what not because the adults made sure Elvis got drafted to stop him, the music business payola scandals [look those up] and adults and politicians trying to take control of "that evil commie plot rock and roll" that corrupted our youth [lol]. They brought our music back home to us and expanded and gave us some new music to be excited about...they saved rock and roll from dying on the vine.

Another 60s era great female artist also a Brit for Cliff to do is "Lulu" - To Sir with Love" from the movie of the same name from 1967. Another Great is "Petula Clark". Her song "Downtown" from 1965 is a favorite and all her songs have the 60s sound that give a happy feeling as I see it that they promote..... couple others are - "I know a place" and "Don't sleep in the subway darling".... hopefully with some video cover... it gets thru... great songs. We have Cher with her 1971 hit - "Gypsies Tramps and Thieve"s. That became a big hit for her without Sonny. Also a Country crossover big hit for "Jeannie C. Riley" - "Harper Valley PTA from 1968. Great videos from TV shows. Cannot Forget the hit from "Dolly Parton" - "I will always love you" That also in the was huge for Whitney Houston. Dolly wrote it and had a hit with in 1973.
