“Our duet is magical,” Murray said of her pairing with Springfield on “I Just Fall In Love Again.” With consent from Springfield’s family and estate, a new duet was made using a 1979 Springfield recording and new Murray vocals. Springfield had made her recording in a booth, instead of on the floor with the musicians, so it was possible to isolate her vocals and place them on a new track with Murray’s, making it seem like the old friends were once again singing together.

I had sung with Dusty so many times over the years. It was eerie to be in the studio again, singing along with her, knowing she is no longer with us. Everyone in the control room felt the same way. That song works beautifully as a duet and I never thought it would. I love Dusty’s voice so much.”

Shelby Lynne has just released an album of Dusty songs..she's a wonderful artist and makes the songs her own.. http://www.shelbylynne.com/
