Dusty Springfield - On TV and Radio, Volume 4: 1968

Here's the next Dusty Springfield. As with the others in this series, she played so many songs on TV and radio that were never recorded by her in the studio that it's enough for roughly one album per year in the late 1960s.

I think this is really good and interesting music. I mean, on this album alone, she does duets with Scott Walker and Jimi Hendrix! The rest is mostly very capable covers of big soul hits of the day.

Although I must say the cover of "Hold On, I'm Coming" is strange. The chorus is the same, but for some reason the verses were changed, including weird new lyrics.

Absolutely none of the songs here were officially released. All but one were from Springfield's 1967 British TV show, "It Must Be Dusty." That other one, "There Will Never Be Another You," is from an appearance she did on another TV show.

The album is 40 minutes long, which is an ideal length for that era. I didn't plan it that way, but it's neat how well the album lengths in this series all could have made these actual albums at the time.

I don't know where or when the cover photo comes from exactly, but I'd guess it's around 1968.
