Dusty Springfield - Alternate TV and Radio Appearances, Volume 2: 1966-1968

I previously posted a bunch of albums called "On TV and Radio" that are filled with songs Dusty Springfield sang on TV and radio in the 1960s and early 1970s that she didn't put on any records. This second series of four albums deals with the songs she performed on TV and radio that she did put on record.

All but five of the songs are officially unreleased. The five that have been released are: "Every Ounce of Strength," "Won'’t Be Long," "Twenty-Four Hours from Tulsa," "Don't Let Me Lose This Dream," and "It Was Easier to Hurt Him."

The vast majority of songs are from a BBC show she hosted in 1966 and 1967, simply called "Dusty." These songs were performed live in front of an audience, but I've minimized the cheering after the songs.

As far as sound quality goes, some of the unreleased songs sound merely good instead of great. Sometimes, there's a bit of muffling or distance. 

This album is 41 minutes long.

This cover photo dates from 1965. That's just outside the time frame of the music here, but the picture quality was so good for this one I decided to use it anyway. Besides, unlike most musicians during those fast-changing years, her appearance didn't change much.
