As for this CD... this is a great CD for new Nancy fans. Another would be Nancy Sinatra You Go-Go Girl! (check out the groovy cover photo). Here are some of my favorite tunes on The Essential Nancy Sinatra: All of them!
Seriously: "Bang, Bang," "Sugartown," "In Our Time" and "You Only Live Twice". If anyone thinks Nancy can't sing rock have them listen to "Friday's Child". All of her duets with Lee Hazlewood are great. My only complaint is that their duet of "Summer Wine" is not included.
One of my all-time, top 10 favorite songs is "Something Stupid," which, in case you've been living under a rock, is a duet with her daddy. I always play this one 2 or 3 times. There's something about the guitar (guitars?) at the beginning that sends me.
If you are a true fan and you find the CDs California Girl and Nancy/Lee 3 buy them no matter what the price is... you won't regret it. California Girl has "Saturday in the Park," "99 Miles from LA," and "Cuando Calienta el Sol" (With those guitars... Guitar + Nancy = Heaven). The best song on California Girl? "Hotel California".
(In my opinion) Nancy/Lee 3 has some of their best recordings. It is also the their last studio album. It's hard to find, but it is worth every penny. I had the great pleasure of seeing Nancy and Lee perform at the Fillmore in San Francisco (1995).
Are you ready boots? Start walkin'!
Her hits of the 60s'are unbeatable. Sugartown,You only live twice,as well as her Lee Hazelwood duets are pop masterpieces,with great Billy Strange productions.Nancy brings us up to date with "Let me kiss you"(Morrisey production).
The modern-ized bang Bang is the only misplaced track,simply stupid.
Nancy and dad on "Somethin' Stupid are heaven. Buy this cd
great and is a lot of fun to listen to. She is cultural icon of the 60's
whose music on this CD finally gets the treatment it should. All the
hits are here except "Summer Wine". (Don't know why). If you are a
Nancy Sinatra fan, this is the one for the best sound.

Merci pour l'envoi de ce cd qui reste quasiment introuvable aujourd'hui, cependant même si l'objet est d'occasion dans l'annonce il à été stipulé que le boitier ainsi que le cd était en "bon état", Le produit est arrivé quasiment à la dernière minute et heureusement car c'était un cadeau Noël et le boitier était fêlé sur le devant.
Bonne continuation
Merci
