Notes
Dusty in Memphis is the fifth studio album by English singer Dusty Springfield. She recorded the album at American Sound Studio in Memphis with a team of musicians and producers that included Jerry Wexler, Arif Mardin, Tom Dowd, conductor Gene Orloff, backing vocalists The Sweet Inspirations, bassist Tommy Cogbill, and guitarist Reggie Young. It featured one of her top-10 UK hits, "Son of a Preacher Man". Although Dusty in Memphis sold poorly when it was first released by Atlantic Records in 1969, the album has since been acclaimed by critics as one of the greatest records of all-time and Springfield's best work.

Reviews
- I have the mid 80s plus of this fantastic album. Not a bad track on it . Heart moving soul
- if you can find a 1st pressing, do not holdout, well worth it

Have this in my collection for quite some time. Gave it another spin today to find out this record sounds very harsh. Dusty's voice lacks warmth and is not enjoyable to listen to. 
Got a flawless copy of this. Sounds fantastic!! Words words words
Edited 5 months agoI really like the music on this album. It takes you back to when Bacharach ran the show. Great music and arrangement. I've been very happy with the 75 series, but this one leaves me wanting to grab the Analogue Productions. This vinyl is very quiet but it just seems to be missing the fullness of the strings. I want to be disappointed, but I only paid $22 so kind of hard too. I'll definitely upgrade it. 3.5 stars- Have to agree with the other comments. Very noisy, cheap pressing. Doesn't do Dusty justice. And I absolutely hate that they put their label on the front cover. Picked up for cheap at a record fair and I will be swapping it out when a better pressing comes my way.
WELL NOW not sure of the outcome remember Get Back and now Revolver take the tracks apart and remix it but with certain strange whatever it is digital issues... I know a guy who remixed with that technology Please Please Me to Rubber Soul and remixed like lost multi tracks like this one that went in a fire ... and Love's Forever Changes and that kicked butt ....

Don't let that coy look on the cover fool you - this is powerhouse white woman pop/soul from arguably the best female singer the UK ever produced. Blessed w/ a mellifluous voice of breathy perfection, DS lays down some of the smoothest most soulful & sophisticated music ever made aided by the sympathetic production & arrangements of Jerry Wexler, Tom Dowd & Arif Mardin. The material is uniformly excellent & every track is a polished jewel.
Sultry smoky superb music.
Edited 8 months agoYou know what you’re getting when they emphasise the crystal-clear vinyl and limited edition, but don’t mention the cutting and mastering.- Vinyl is flat and quiet without any surface nose or other distractions. Sonics are outstanding using my VMN50SH shibata stylus. Very impressed with this versions which is saying a lot because my 70+ year-old ears are most comfortable listening to original 1960's vinyl pressing. Very happy I purchased this version.
