Isn't Dusty supposed to be inducted into the RnR Hall of Fame this year? Too damn late IMO. She was amazing. RIP. Slim Yeah, and she can soak up what's left of the spotlight after Billy Joel and Paul McCartney have besmirched it. And don't forget Bruce's fist-pumping anthems with the reunited

This is not good news to wake up to. Son of a Preacher Man is a great vocal performance. Breast Cancer is a really scary thing. All you girls please don't put off your check ups, and you boys out there, please gently remind us to do so. Nancy

Ohh God. *Really* bad news. The only singer we produced who could compare with the Motown greats. If you grew up in the 60s over here Dusty was part of the soundtrack of your life. One of the truly great pop voices. The harmless gaiety of the nations is much diminished. If any of you can find

Well, anyone who doesn't own "Dusty In Memphis" needs to go to their local record store post haste and purchase this sucker. I think Rhino re-issued it on CD not too long ago with previously unreleased bonus tracks. A marvel of smooth (in a good way g) '60 soul-pop.

Include Maria McKee's cover of the Dusty in Memphis gem, "I Can't Make it Alone," from You Gotta Sin to Get Saved. OK, technically, this is a Goffin/King cover, but you know what I mean. And speaking of Maria, I just bought her first 2 albums today for my girlfriend, and then, a few minutes later
