Greetings Sinatra Fans!
I found this CD to have the most favorite songs a person would want to hear by Nancy Sinatra & Lee Hazelwood. Definately a 10 for content. The price compared to others offering the same is about 1/2 the price. You will not be disappointed.

 Not ordered for myself

| This was purchased as a Christmas present for a family member. I would never have any Nancy Sinatra in my music collection. Grace Slick, Jamis Joplin, yes, nancy, no. I would like to squelch any rumors that I bought this recording for myself. Thank you. |

The Best Nancy Compilation.
Submitted on: 2008-03-26 |
|
| The best Nancy Sinatra/Lee Hazelwood songs are on this CD. The way the two voices play one to another reminds me of some of the old Ella Fitzgerald/Louis Armstrong 78s. Great stuff! |

 The 3 Stars Has Nothing To Do With Nancy's Singing
Submitted on: 2007-09-03 |

I did NOT assign just 3 stars to this compilation because I agree with another reviewer who regards her as the "queen of mediocrity." Rather, it's due to the complete lack of liner notes, some questionable sound quality, and the omission of some pretty significant hits in favour of obscure cuts.
Emanating from CNR Records of Belgium, tracks 3, 4, 7, 8, 9, 14, and 16 were NOT hits - not on this side of the Atlantic anyway. They may have been in Europe, but of course there are no liner notes to tell us this. "Sand" was the B-side of Lady Bird, a # 20 Billboard Pop Hot 100 duet with Hazlewood in late 1967.
Her other three hits with Lee (who passed away on August 4, 2007) are: Summer Wine (# 49 flip of Sugar Town in the spring of 1967; Jackson (# 14 Hot 100/# 39 Adult Contemporary (AC) in summer 1967); and Some Velvet Morning (# 26 in February 1968). It's also interesting to note that he also wrote the following solo hits for Nancy which are included here: So Long Babe, her first hit which only made it to # 86 in October 1965; These Boots Are Made For Walkin' (# 1 in the early part of 1966); How Does That Grab You Darlin'? (# 7 in late spring 1966); Friday's Child (# 36 in July 1966); and Sugar Town (# 1 AC/# 5 Hot 100 in late 1966).
Her biggest hit, of course, was the duet with her illustrious dad on Somethin' Stupid which soared to # 1 on both the AC and Hot 100 charts in the spring of 1967, spending nine full weeks at the top AC position and four at the Hot 100 top spot.
Rather than those non-hits mentioned above, this album would have been made somewhat better with the inclusion of: In Our Time [# 46 in the fall of 1966 and also written by Lee]; Love Eyes [# 15 Hot 100/# 30 AC in late spring 1967 and another Hazlewood composition]; Lightning's Girl [# 24 Hot 100 in October 1967]; 100 Years [# 29 AC/# 69 Hot 100 in April 1968]; Happy [# 18 AC/# 74 Hot 100 in August 1968]; Good Time Girl [# 65 Hot 100 in December 1968]; God Knows I Love You [# 40 AC/# 97 Hot 100 in April 1969]; Here We Go Again (# 19 AC/# 98 Hot 100 in June 1969); Drummer Man (# 98 Hot 100 in September 1969 featuring Hal Blaine on drums); How Are Things In California? (# 17 AC in December 1970 with The Baylor Brothers); and Feelin' Kinda Sunday (# 30 AC in January 1971 and another duet with father Frank).
Of course, those alone wouldn't turn this into a 5-star compilation unless the sound was vastly improved as well. On track 18 for example - at least on my copy - her voice only emanates from one side which is disconcerting, while the others are only "OK" in terms of sound quality. The best to be said about this CD is the inclusion of her first charted hit from 1965.
As for her ability as a singer, I don't buy into that mediocrity slight. Granted, she was no Aretha Franklin, nor did she have her dad's unique way with a song, but nevertheless she had 21 Billboard Pop Hot 100 singles, six of which went Top 40 WITHOUT Lee Hazlewood. In addition to those two AC-only charters she even had three Country hit duets with Mel Tillis in 1981 - Texas Cowboy Night (# 23), and the double-sided hit Play Me Or Trade Me, and Where Would I Be (both # 43). Not too shabby a singing career, I'd say. |
