  • Dusty was imcomparable. She had more talent in her little finger, than singers today have in their entire bodies. I remember rushing home from school to watch Shindig, Hullabaloo, and Shivaree. Yikes, I've become an old fossil!! Oh well,at least I was young back then.

  • To all of you younger people who comment on "lip syncing" on these videos from the 1960's,know that the singers "of the day" were simply following the instructions of the record companies and tv producers back then whose main intention was to "produce a FINELY CRAFTED product that was IDENTICAL to the studio release,hence "Lip Syncing","Guitars NOT plugged in",etc. That was considered PRIDE in craftmanship back then,NOT like now !

  • @4everbobby There's no comparing the late Dusty Springfield to most of today's artists,such as most of them are.

  • :')'''

    Every day I miss you, Dusty Springfield.

    Rest in peace, lovey!

  • @sterlinggreg

    you are stuck with only the musical CRAP you choose. It's music, it's a personal choice. In music, free to choose. 

  • Please get over yourself, Dusty Springfield, in whatever environment, will stand alone. Forever.

  • This sure as hell beats lady buke,buke and the hip hop rap CRAP were stuck with today!

  • Dusty Springfield, Laura Branigan, breast cancer has taken 2 of the greatest female singers of all time. It also took my Blessed Mother and her younger sister. All RIP. I miss you all dearly.

  • 35 yr veteran of the live music business -been involveded in over 100 television performances as singer, musician, manager, agent, promoter,production mgr etc - in every case the producer/director of the show decided whether to have a lip synched or live performance. It has nothing to do with the acts ability to sing/perform live, but everything to do with setup time, technical equipment etc. TV is/was abt exposure of the act and promotion of latest recording. .

  • @patascortitas It was more than that. Back then, technology was still in an infant stage and there was simply no way to duplicate a live sound versus a recorded one. There was no way to reproduce live performances to time out with television without distortion. Hence, lip synching. Silly, yes. . but essential to getting a definitive sound. .and look. . from the artists.

  • Just Great!
