Dusty Springfield , "Reputation".In late
1987 , there was a resurgence of interest in Springfield's career, which was a direct result of her work withPet Shop Boys on the duet "What Have I Done to Deserve This? ", released in November of the same year. The single reached #2 in the USA and #2 in Britain, Springfield's highest simultaneous charting single ever. Springfield then worked with Pet Shop Boys on two further solo singles "Nothing Has Been Proved ", originally from movie "Scandal", and "In Private ", both Top 20 hits for Springfield. The culmination of Springfield's new success was the album "Reputation", released in 1990. The original album was released only in Britain and charted as high as #18, Springfield's first hit album in her native country in over twenty years. In 1997, the album was re-released (this time in America as well) as "Reputation and Rarities", and included the entire "Reputation" album, along with two tracks recorded for the album, but never used or released until then. Also included was "Getting It Right", written and produced bySteve Tyrell in early 1990 for the British movie of the same name, first released as one of the B-sides to the single "Arrested By You", and the original 12" mix of the biggest hit from the album, "In Private"."Reputation and Rarities" was later given a second re-release by EMI's mid-price label Disky Communications, then repackaged with a third set of cover art.
