Dusty... Definitely

Dusty... Definitely was Dusty Springfield's last LP recorded in Britain for her UK Label Philips Records. Recorded and released in 1968 the songs were chosen because Dusty "liked them". Like the rest of her LP's the album shows a diverse range of styles ranging from Soul ( e.g. "Take Another Little Piece of my Heart"), pop ( e.g. "This Girl's in Love With You"), folk ("Morning") to lounge ( e.g. "Who (Will Take my Place?"). Springfield is often praised for her version of the Randy Newman song "I Think it's Going To Rain Today", which appears on this LP.

On the LP the two sides reflected very different moods: the first side was packed with fast-paced and loud numbers, whist the second side was more mellow, which Springfield suggested would be suitable for listening to at night.

In the USA in 1968 Springfield entered into a contract with Atlantic Records, which meant that the singer had two record labels for each side of the Atlantic (previously she had been signed to both Philips in the UK and the USA). Springfield's new contract allowed Philips in the UK to release America recordings and Atlantic in the USA to release British recordings. This was the first LP to be covered to by this agreement. Atlantic felt that it did not want to release any British recordings on their label so this album was never released in the states.

Tracks from this album were finally released in the USA in 1999 (the year of Springfield's death) on the Rhino Records compilation "Dusty in London".
