My only regret is that there is a whole crop of 60s songs Dusty sings back-up on, which would make a nice set.

That book sets the record straight for those of us who only knew those wonderful Dave Clark shows. The UK REAL shows were amazing artifacts. I always thought it would be like our American bandstand, but it was SO much cooler and on late Friday nights, not Saturday afternoons like our show.

Andrew, she was such a perfectionist that it probably made her super-self-critical of her songwriting talents. Our loss, judging from the ones we did get. Her brother was no slouch as a songwriter, either.

Dusty's version of the Rascals song reminds me of something WFMU's Matt Fiveash once said to me: If several singers have covered an artist's song, Dusty's cover is the best cover.

Oh yeah. I got this stereo DJ 45 in 1968 when it came out and could not believe how great it was. Then to find it not become a hit here was a crime. At least the UK let it hit big.
