Dusty Springfield - Very Fine Love

Digitally remastered and expanded two disc (CD + NTSC/Region 0 DVD) of Dusty's final album from 1995. This edition is complete with two bonus audio tracks and a DVD of the last two promotional videos Dusty ever made; the Dianne Warren penned 'Wherever Would I Be' - a duet with Daryl Hall and 'Roll Away' filmed on the atmospheric Atlantic coast of Ireland. The deluxe miniature LP style sleeve packaging also includes a comprehensive and celebratory 32 page booklet containing sleeve notes and lyrics to give added context to the creation of an album that can be seen as the perfect finale to Dusty's recording career. An album in which Dusty's softer vocal timbre often imbues the lyrics with the wisdom of lived experience to devastating emotional impact. Recorded in Nashville and produced by Tom Shapiro, A Very Fine Love is a diverse collection of 'adult contemporary' pop tunes executed by some of Nashville's leading session players of the day. Dusty chose songs that had mature but accessible tunes and lyrics, repertoire that was, in her own words, "fairly grown up and befitting a woman of my age and experience". K.T. Oslin and Mary Chapin Carpenter provided backing vocals on one of the album's undoubted highlights, closing track 'Where Is Woman To Go' - a bluesy masterclass in phrasing and control. This edition includes two bonus tracks, variant versions of lead single 'Wherever Would I Be'; an original Dusty solo version and the more A.O.R. tinged guitar led 'Walter A. Mix' which was aimed at the American market.
