Dusty Springfield

By this time other musical acts followed (or copied) The Beatles success and thus was born the "British Invasion". Dusty Springfield was one of the first British artists to have significant success in the U.S., with her hit single "I Only Want To Be With You," released in November 1963, though it technically did not chart on the Billboard Hot 100 until January 11, 1964 and eventually went to #12. Dusty was still a member of The Springfields which had a hit in the U.S. "Silver Threads and Golden Needles."
