Rapper FIRST time REACTION to Dusty Springfield - Son of a Preacher Man! These vocals sound like...

[@nitab1971]

She white. She English. She legendary.

[@jimmymcpeters3656]

She's gay. "The main issue facing Dusty’s career was her continuous struggle with alcohol and drug addiction, along with self harm brought on due to masking several insecurities. At the time, Dusty had never been reported to be in a heterosexual relationship so questions of her sexuality started to come about. In the 1960s and 1970s, homosexuality wasn’t very accepted by society by any means and Dusty was in constant fear of losing her career due to being outed as a lesbian. This fear and constant struggle continued to lead her down a dark path, causing her to be hospitalized several times. However, eventually Dusty decided to just accept and embrace her sexuality. In 1970 she admitted to being in a domestic partnership with fellow singer-songwriter, Norma Tanega."

Blue-Eyed Soul was a thing. Boundaries across genres weren't much in the 60s, 70s, 80s, and early 90s. You could turn on a radio station and hear pop, soul, country, folk, and rock all from the same DJ. We accepted it all.

[@adriennerango1519]

Except from 1978 through 1982 - "Disco Sucks" was also a thing. Plus, country music wasn't cool with some people and (I don't know how its possible) but some people didn't like Motown!!! I love it all.

[@JasonSmith-gq4hb]

This is a rare case where I'm grateful to be a little older. I loved this song even as a kid, and still do. Not only did I not know what color she was, but nobody cared what color she was. Sometimes I wonder if our "progress" really is.

[@johnreilly9452]

Dusty was a trailblazer during the apartheid era in the 60s she was booked for performances in South Africa , she was promised she would play to a mixed audience. When she arrived there the South African government said it would be white only audiences. She refused to play and returned immediately to the Uk . She openly supported black acts. Her voice was full of soul. I would recommend her track The Look of Love it's sexy sultry and sublime

@@DeAnne1233 My apologies but I think that they are no more caught up in appearances than any other generation. An older person like myself, 65 years old, has seen too much to judge those younger than I am, because every generation makes their own mistakes. Unfortunately many of those mistakes are a repeat of what previous people have done. I have 4 granddaughters, and we have lost their grandmother, my wife, and their mother, my daughter. Now I'm trying to pass along whatever lessons that life has taught me in the hope that they don't make similar mistakes. It's impossible to measure any progress, but as long as I keep waking up in the morning I will have hope. Peace 💚

Dusty Springfield was born Mary Isobel Catherine Bernadette O'Brien in London on April 16, 1939. She died in 1999 of breast cancer. Shortly before her death she was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and was given the Order of the British Empire (OBE).

[@ranaldthurgood4875]

Thanks for that. I suspect that the record was performed in Stax Studios, the soul music studio in Memphis, with Booker T. and the MG's as her band, and local gospel singers. Dusty was a perfectionist who never thought any record was good enough to release.

Many years ago I was in Henley-on-Thames, UK, and walked into the local graveyard. I came across Dusty's headstone and started to cry. A fully grown man crying (I'm 68 now and tearing up writing this). What a voice. A legend. We miss you Dusty.

[@stephenstrudwick8095]

"Son of a Preacher Man" was offered initially to Aretha Franklin because the song's writers thought it suited her sound and the fact that her father was a Minister. Aretha turned the song down because she thought it was disrespectful to her father. It was then suggested that Britain’s Dusty Springfield would be ideal. Dusty was in the States recording her album Dusty In Memphis, so they contacted her and she travelled to New York to hear and then record the song.

Dusty Springfield was a big fan of Motown and she was one of the only white singers who could get close to the sound of the Detroit label's records. She was hugely responsible for bringing the sound and its artists to the UK audience.

[@karencahill4798]

Check out “ The look of love is in your eyes.” You’ll absolutely MELT. They didn’t re-master in those days! One of the best ‘white’ female singers ever. Her voice is insanely sultry. So happy you’re expanding your horizons. Loving your show!

[@mariannegrande7455]

Her voice is what you’d call ‘smoky’…❤

[@AceAnnie1-7]

Dusty is a legend. As others have said , she was British. She loved soul and gospel and was instrumental in bringing black musicians over from the States and onto mainstream tv in the 60’s. She was great friends with Martha Reeves and there is some lovely footage of them both singing together and they had so much fun together! She was famous for her heavy eye make up, but always claimed that was because her eyesight was so poor. She was also gay, but didn’t come out until much later in her career.

[@AceAnnie1-7]

I’ve found the footage, it’s a song called Wishing and Hoping, by Dusty and Martha. I won’t share the link in case it gets your podcast blocked! It’s worth watching though

Yep our Dusty, white, blonde, and British with a voice like Aretha, she had some bangers like, Spooky, The Look of Love, Wishin and Hopin, I Only Wanna Be With You and Take Another Little Piece of My Heart.

[@TheoZoffrok]

A voice like Aretha? Seriously? I adore both Aretha and Dusty, but I am *really* struggling to hear much similarity in their voices.

[@simply_psi]

@TheoZoffrok well there's always hearing aids, you should give them a try. By the way I didn't say the same, I said like, Aretha had slight more power and better range, Dusty had a purer, smoother voice but yes there are similarities, the soul, it is apparent in songs like Son of a Preacher Man, Wishin and Hopin and I Only Wanna Be With You, more that Spooky and The Look of Love where she has more of a Nancy Sinatra quality to her vocals.

In 1987, the Pet Shop Boys brought Dusty Springfield back from obscurity with a song they had written to be a duet between them and her. She agreed to record it and "What Have I Done To Deserve This?" went to number two becoming the second biggest song of her career after her chart-topping "You Don’t Have To Say You Love Me" in 1966. The two follow-ups, "Nothing Has Been Proved" and "In Private," both written by Neil Tennant and Chris Lowe (ie, the Pet Shop Boys), both reached the UK top 20.

[@wyvernwood5675]

with due respect, I don't think she hadn't faded into obscurity, she was still well known during the late 70s and 80s, maybe not quite as big as she was in her hey day, but she appeared on the chat shows of the day.

Music is universal - couldn't put it any better than that. Colour of the artist doesn't matter if you like their music. I grew up listening to Motown, the Beatles, Supremes, Beach Boys, Ray Charles, Four Tops, Rolling Stones, Pink Floyd, Supertramp, E L O, Genesis, Moody Blues, Marvin Gaye and hundreds more simply because I enjoyed the songs. One of my favourite songs of all time is "We Have All the Time in the World" by Louis Armstrong, which I believe was recorded just a few short weeks before his death.

Dusty was one of an amazing crop of British female artists to emerge in the 60's. NO autotune just pure talent. Along with Cilla Black, Sandie Shaw, Petula Clake, Shirley Bassey legends were born. I also add to this Judith Durham who although Australian had a load of big hits when she and her band The Seekers came to the UK. Cilla, Dusty and Judith are no longer with us and i cried when each passed. As a boy I played my mums 45's singing away and was lost in another world.

[@rawschri]

She recorded this around 10 weeks after Elvis had walked into the very same American Sound studios, with the same musicians at 2272 Deadrick Avenue, Memphis. Elvis had cut " Suspicious Minds " and " In the Ghetto " there in those sessions. The " Sweet Inspirations ", Elvis's female backing group from 1969-77 also provided the backing sound on Dusty's Album ... as you might know, one of the group at that time was Cissie Houston, mother of Whitney. Neil Diamond's " Sweet Caroline " was recorded there in the same time period ... as you say, there was definitely something in the water in Memphis at that time ...

The backup vocals for this song were by a female group called the Sweet Inspirations, who were made up of Cissy Houston, Sylvia Shemwell, Myrna Smith and Estelle Brown. They were the sought-after female backup vocalists in the New York area, having performed on albums by Aretha Franklin, Wilson Picket, Van Morrison and many others. With four singers, they could create a rich, soulful sound that suited this song perfectly. Later in 1969, the Sweet Inspirations went to work for Elvis Presley, touring and recording with him. Cissy Houston left the group at this time so she could spend more time with her children, including her young daughter, Whitney Houston.

As others have already said, Dusty Springfield was British. Her background was Irish, but she was born in London and lived in Britain for much of her life. There are several videos of her performing on TV. She sang "You Don't Have to Say You Love Me" on at least a couple of different shows. "Son of a Preacher Man" was used in the movies "Pulp Fiction" and "What's Love Got to Do with It."

[@ProdigyBowlersTour]

Yes, Dusty was white (a blonde). She was part of the British Invasion of the '60s. Several other great hits worth digging into. Some great soulful music came out of Memphis and Muscle Shoals in the '60s. Other Dusty hits to hear: "I Only Want to Be With You" (1963), "Wishin' and Hopin'" (1964), "You Don't Have to Say You Love Me" (1966), "The Look of Love" (1967), "Son Of A Preacher Man" (1968), "The Windmills of Your Mind" (1969). Definitely worth digging into these others, especially those that came before "Preacher Man." "The Look of Love" was covered by a lot of artists, but hers was the definitive version. Yes, Dusty was a perfect example of "blue eyed soul." Never more so than on "Preacher Man." Sadly, she died much too young. (Breast cancer.)

[@stephenstrudwick8095]

One of the most fruitful events to come out of her Memphis sessions was Springfield suggesting to Atlantic Records that they sign a new group called Led Zeppelin. Bassist John Paul Jones was a part of her touring band and she fought for Led Zeppelin to get signed and they did! 🤩

Dusty Springfield’s career began with the pop vocal trio the Lana Sisters before winding up with the folk/country trio The Springfields, featuring her brother Tom Springfield and Tim Feild. Already a huge success in the UK, the Springfields landed in the U.S. Top 20 in 1962 with "Silver Threads and Golden Needles.” While touring in the states, Dusty Springfield developed a great appreciation for the then-emerging Motown sound and American R&B. So strong was this music’s influence on her that she decided to leave the Springfields to pursue a solo career the following year, with her subsequent output from 1963 to 1968 embracing a gorgeous mix of ‘60s girl group pop and Blue-eyed soul. Hits from this time include "I Only Want to Be With You", "Spooky", "Wishin' and Hopin'", "I Close My Eyes and Count to Ten", "I Just Don't Know What To Do With Myself", "You Don't Have to Say You Love Me", "Goin' Back" and "The Look of Love".

I’m 43 and I’ve heard this a few times in my life. You don’t forget that hook. I too thought it was a black woman. It just has that soul sound to it. Great reaction. God bless y’all.

You've reacted to Bobbie Gentry before - she covered this as well, and was equally soulful!
