This is the best compilation of all time by any artist and I have played it too many times to count and only grow to love it more each time!! Dusty has "the" voice of the century and it is brilliantly displayed on this collection in all of its glory. The title "Something Special" accurately describes what is in store for the listener and for me Dusty was special in a way that was truly unique and unlike anyone else. The voice was soft and soulful and the emotion deep and always so sensitive. Listening to the diverse selection of songs in this incredible collection in French, English and Italian, one is amazed how versatile this wonderful singer was and what a great treasure of songs she left for us to enjoy. Often haunting and always passionate, Dusty could always get to the core of a song and make you live it along with her-she was pure magic!! Listen to the fun and joy of "Needle In A Haystack" or the baring of her soul in "Love Me By Name" and be amazed by a once in a lifetime talent who had no limits. This collection is filled with rare Dusty gems that will make anyone who loves the art of great singing hunger for more!! This one really is as good as it gets and this collection will become one of the most treasured by anyone who possesses it!!! Hurry and get it while it is still available!!!!

"Something Special" is by far THE BEST Dusty complilation EVER. In my opinion this 2cd set outshines the two Dusty boxed sets.

This is a cd I play regularly, it features Dusty singing some of her hits in French & Italian plus a never before released version of "Needle In A Haystack" which is brilliant and even has Dusty and the backing singers bursting into laughter at the end which is so good to hear as it was the studio "atmosphere".

There is a most beautiful Norma Tanega song "No Stranger Am I" which was the 'b' side to Dusty's huge hit "I Close My Eyes & Count to Ten, on "Stranger" Dusty's voice is so gentle and pure and it's simply "stunning"!

Two song's in particular which quickly became favourite's of mine was the (never before released) "Wasn't Born To Follow" by Goffin/King and "I've Got A Good Thing", on listening you will wonder why they took around 30 years to be released as they sound so fresh.

Dusty was never in a rut musically so you'll also find the up-tempo ravers "Baby Blue" (the 12" version) & "Your Love Still Brings Me To My Knees".

Disc 2 features the "gentler" side of Dusty with some beautiful ballads like "I Think It's Gonna Rain Today", "If You Go Away" and the power-house performance on "Who Can I Turn To".

Mercury Records did us proud with this release and yes Dusty you are indeed "Something Special"
