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.

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

This is a meticulous record, each note weighed and measured, where Lynne and producer Phil Ramone favour the standards.
Thankfully, at its heart is a singer who has already demonstrated - on I Am Shelby Lynne and Identity Crisis - that she instinctively understands how to communicate emotion.
She has carefully harvested some of the hallowed singer's deepest, and often saddest, material, investing it with captivating sparsity.
In general, she adopts a 'less-is-more' approach and ... Read More

I buy a lot of cd's each year. I consider this to be one of my favorite purchases. I never heard of Shelby Lynne until a few months ago when I heard a cut on XM Cafe.
Great songs,great voice & an acoustic guitar in the right hands can produce an amazing final product.
Many of the songs on this album are her rendition of songs done by others. I played this cd once & then again & again...its that good!
Don't take my word for it. Listen to the samples, I think you'll agree.

I like Dusty Springfield. I like Shelby Lynne. I love Shelby Lynne singing songs that used to be condsidered to be "Dusty's." And I say "used to be considered" meaning to use those words.
It was funny a few years ago when some kid asked his father about Paul McCartney, who was then singing with Wings, "Dad, didn't he used to be in another band?" Well, a similar question might now be asked about these songs, "Did someone else sing that song years ago?" I do not mean to diminish Miss Springfield ... Read More

I liked a couple of the songs but would have liked a few more on the CD. She has a very lovely voice.
