From the launch of her solo career in 1963, Dusty Springfield exuded beauty and glamour with a distinctively unique voice that propelled her into the charts time and again. Ahead of her time, with an unrivalled musical ear, she was heavily influenced by Motown artists and was the first British artist to appreciate their impact. When she hosted her own TV shows, she introduced her audience to such Motown contemporaries as Martha and the Vandellas, The Supremes, and Stevie Wonder.
