Editorial Review: Amazon.com: Shelby's new album, Just A Little Lovin', was inspired by one of her favorite singers, Dusty Springfield. The album features nine clasic songs associated with Dusty and one stunning original written by Shelby, inspired by Dusty. Shelby Lynne Photos
More from Shelby Lynne
Amazon.com: It's a risky move for any singer to attempt a direct ascent on the towering peaks of Dusty Springfield's evergreen legacy. (Rolling Stone once called Dusty in Memphis the third most "essential" rock album by a woman.) Just a Little Lovin' achieves the unlikely: a tribute to an immortal artist which both glorifies its subject and elevates the worshipper kneeling at her altar. Lynne's 2001 breakthrough, I Am Shelby Lynne, was both utterly fresh and nostalgically infused with a Memphis-like spirit. Much of Just a Little Lovin' is as familiar as an old pair of shoes. Lynne's original contribution, "Pretend," fits snugly between the classics, but it's the loose, practically improvised vibe of this recording that breathes new life into Bacharach and David's "Anyone Who Had a Heart" and, especially, Randy Newman's "I Don't Want to Hear It Anymore." Genius producer Phil Ramone lends the entire collection the kind of intimacy he brought to Paul Simon and Billy Joel's most atmospheric 1970s recordings. Restrained instrumentation--often simply guitar, upright bass, a sprinkling of piano, and light percussion--turn even the teenage bubble-gum anthem "I Only Want to Be with You" into a sultry meditation. It's hard to imagine another recent album more successful in melding retro-reverence with contemporary moderation. The result arouses emotion even as it enchantingly relaxes. --Ben Heege Customer Reviews
Average Rating:
 Rating:  - just a little lovin'Not too many white females can claim the privilige of achingly romantic blues renditions done in their OWN way. i do think this album not only does that but her unique voice and style tell a story not only her own but that of her audience; don't listen to it unless you are prepared. Rating:  - She's No DustyVery disappointed in this CD. The woman has no range and I was bored (imagine-a boring Bacharach song) I was hoping that someone could do justice to Dusty. Not to be, at least, not yet. Rating: - Great CDThis record is a tribute to Dusty Springfield. If you loved Dusty Springfield's music you're gonna love this even more. Rating: - Great VocalsThis recording is a very stylized offering from a great vocalist who combines all of her country, rock and pop skills into a really nice tribute to Dusty Springfield. A satisfying, sentimental and relaxing listen from beginning to end. I wish Shelby Lynne would record more often - she's really unique. Rating: - Strange interpretations of old favorites!I find it curious that the most of these songs that we are all so familiar with seem to have only the vaguest familiarity to Shelby Lynne. Her "interpretations" I think would only appeal to those who have a fondness for those who sing disjointedly to themselves along about the time the tavern is closing. As far as being a tribute to Dusty Springfield, it certainly isn't in my opinion. |
