If you've never heard this album, be prepared for "Some Velvet Morning" to be on constant repeat in your rotation for a long time to come. Check out the video here. For those of you who only know that song from the album, hopefully you will enjoy the rest of the album's tracks such as "Summer Wine." Yes, there are some cheesy duets with Franky Blue Eye's daughter and over the top orchestration, but that only adds to the charm of the album. It is easy to say that Lee Hazlewood is one cool cat, an amazing song writer and singer who always stuck to his own guns and never shifted his style for anybody. This is the first of the duo's many collaborations together, Lee wrote many songs for Nancy such as her most famous "These Boots Are Made For Walkin'" and "Sugar Town" which I'm throwing in as a bonus. Could never figure out the album cover, with that look on his face- Shouldn't he be standing behind her?
Nancy & Lee
bang bang.
