Dusty in Memphis," Dusty Springfield's beautiful and bizarre magnum
opus, remains as fine a hybrid of pop and rhythm and blues as has ever
been made. In this remarkable book, Warren Zanes explores his own love
affair with the record. He digs deep into the album's Memphis roots and
talks to several of the key characters who were involved in its
creation; many of whom were - like Zanes - outsiders drawn to the
American South and mesmerized by its hold over the imagination.
