It can be very difficult to define what it is about someone that makes people refer to them as ‘iconic’ or legendary’. Many stars come and go; some leave more of a legacy than others. A rare few leave a legacy of on-going devotion in a way that sets them apart as the brightest stars in the heavenly firmament. And Dusty Springfield was such a star.


Many fans across the globe keep Dusty’s memory and music alive. Some are recent converts, while others were fans from the Sixties onwards.
