Wasn’t popular at the time....proved more popular with rappers
false
Two great songs, Son of a preacher man and The windmills of your mind.
This one worked better for me on the more uptempo songs.
Powerhouse voice, a little slow and old timey
not really my type of music. also, why does every song just fade out, instead of having an end?
Hát, Dusty nem az én stílusom, azért becsülettel végighallgattam. De nem fogom még egyszer, max a Windmillst. Oké, meg a Preacher Mant, de az más.
Some good ones on here but most compositions were a bit overlong/not varied enough to hold my interest. An interesting genre mix though
Trae una de pulp fiction
2.5
Had the OG Windmills of your mind
eh.
Son of a Preacher Man is a good song, but otherwise this album and genre (blue-eyed soul) fall short for me.
Dusty is the correct adjective
Not my genre although Son of a Preacher Man is a great tune.
What
Pretty bland. Unless it marked a particular moment in history, I am not sure why it's on this 1001 list.
BORING.
Just non
Not my type of music. She's got a pretty voice and son of a preacher Man is pretty good. But I don't care
Nope. Except for Son of a Preacher Man. Otherwise, this is a big fat no. 02-09-2026
not for me
nope. 02/02/2026
Not for me
Didn’t listen.
Didn’t listen
I found this pretty boring. Stopped about half way through and probably not gonna push through and finish for the sake of completion

9th album with group. This is a repeat album, and I’ve decided this just isn’t as good on a second listen. It’s just too pop for me. Good Songs - Son of a Preacher Man, Breakfast in Bed, and In the Land of Make Believe. Bad Songs - Just a Little Lovin’, So Much Love, I Don’t Want to Hear It Anymore, Don’t Forget About Me, Just One Smile, The Windmills of Your Mind, No Easy Way Down, and I Can’t Make It Alone.
• christmas vibe irgendwie • nicht so meins
Just one great song!?
Go fish
Bem chato, sem nada muito atraente ou novo 2/10
I was too forgiving with the last Dusty album. I thought it would be the only one on the list. Silly me.
i listened to the first song on this album and immediately hated the singers voice. i was thinking about giving it another chance but honestly i don’t like this guys name
really was not doing it for me today
Not my favorite album, especially since at least in the recordings I listen to there was high pitched ringing in the background. Certainly an album, but compared to some of the other albums I've heard on this list, not an incredible cut. My favorite track was No Easy Way Down.
i did a poopy in my pants
I can’t believe there are at least two Dusty Springfield albums on this list. This one does have a lot of good song writers, just no good music.
The great vocals can’t make up for how incredibly boring this album is.
It's wild that this type of music was still being made the same year that Abbey Road, Led Zeppelin, Tommy and The Stooges were released. This album is so whitebread and lame.
Insipid blue-eyed soul from a singer performing songs written by other people and performed better by other artists. The silver lining was that a little research saved me from listening to the entire offering on Spotify, as the original album was only a shade over 30 minutes long, not the closer to an hour endurance test that Spotify offered up to me. There's a peculiar mix, from southern soul to straight up pop music, all of it bland and the musical equivalent of cold and well-used dirty dishwater. Dusty does this thing where she goes all breathy, which I assume is to cover up for the fact that she doesn't have a very powerful voice. The backing singers are more interesting vocally than she is herself. The epitome of a one star album.
I love her debut "A Girl Called Dusty , had it pop up on this list a few days ago, but this album is boring in comparison.
Sounds like a shitty vacation.
Well produced for the time, but the songs do not stand out, this album just blends together
There are so many albums in the world. Surely there is something out there that could replace this one. I get that son of a preacher man was a hit but that doesn’t mean it was important. It’s a bad song, all the other songs on here are mediocre at best.
If Carol King and Joni Mitchell had a boring-ass baby.
No sir, not my type
OK for what it is but there was a lot more interesting stuff going on in 1969.
WHOMP this was a dull album outside of Son of Preacher Man
I'm sure she's iconic, but wouldn't listen again.
Not my music, sorry
Gefällt mir nicht.
Dusty Springfield? Pop. She has a nice voice. Not enough material for a double album- stretched thin. One star
Oof, not my style.
It has not aged well. Too much classical. Eurovision winner vibes.
Again, I can see how there are people who like this album, but it's not my genre at all. Just vocals about how sad the singer is to be alone; the instrumentation feels pretty dated to me.
I really dislike the genre of fat women singing
As silky as Dustsy is, just not that into stringy ballads. To much lovin on this album. She must have had an impact during her time cause I can't see making the list for ine hit song.
Meh. Couldn't help but tune out a couple songs in. Really didn't do anything to pull me back in. I assume Dusty has enough of a legacy to show up on this list. I'm obviously completely out of the loop as I just realized Dusty Springfield wasn't a man by listening to this album. 0.60 stars
No, just no I cant see how, even for it’s time, this was an influential album. Take away Son of a Preacher Man and you have a listless, drab album.
Un bodrio, no se si llego a escucharlo entero. Bonus point por tener Son of a preacher man, lo unico rescatable. 1/5
Nice background music.
Like it's fine, but it's not for me.
Not for me
Son of a Preacher Man will always be a banger...but the rest of the album... sorry Dusty
Ohhh okay Son Of A Preacher Man? I know this chorus. Instrumentation is really nice, and the mix is interesting too. Drums hard right, strings, guitars and bass in the left. One ear listening allows for completely different experiences. The pickup in Windmills was the first thing that perked my ears up a bit. Oh, Randy Newman and Burt Bacharach are credited writers on this album. Burt died like two days ago. This album nearly put me to sleep, honestly. She's got a good voice, the instrumentation and orchestration were nice but man was it slow and tiresome. The whole album is the same song. Notable Songs - The Windmills Of Your Mind 2/10
Shallow by the lack of sincerity of the signer. We don’t believe her. Bad interpretation. Music is very boring.
Surly my mom's jams
it sucked!
Avoid
Not for me
Snooooooozzzzzeeeee. I bet some truly great albums got left off because of this mediocre album 🤦♀️
This was the first album I just couldn't listen to.
Nope

fyfaen så jøvlig dårlig
"So Much Love" - This is a good song! Sounds like a classic love song but I like it. "I Don't Want to Hear It Anymore" and "Don't Forget About Me" - Both songs make me feel like I am in the movie Now & Then. Two songs that make me feel nostalgic. "In the Land of Make Believe" - very chill
