You’ve Lost That Lovin’ Feelin’/Elusive Dreams/Greenwich Village Folk Song Salesman/Summer Wine/Storybook Children/Sundown Sundown/Jackson/Some Velvet Morning/Sand/Lady Bird/I’ve Been Down So Long
Nancy Sinatra shares complementary vocals with her producer and songwriter Lee Hazlewood. Nancy & Lee contains the US No. 14 Jackson and No. 20 Lady Bird hit singles. (US:13 UK:17)
"Cheesy coolness and humorous candle-lit darkness, Lee's truly one of a kind and Nancy a singer with personality, together they create fun music that's not without complexities and underpinnings. Dig this one out and sling it into the record player next time you want to liven up a get together. Works every single time."
"Nancy and Lee are a perfect combination, like Sonny and Cher. Lee is the writer with the gravel voice and the troubadour persona, Nancy is the kitten with the school girl toughness, feminine and smart. They had several hits in their groovy day and the best are here. Jackson, Summer Wine and Sand are great examples of the duo's country pop that defined their unique sound."
"If there's a 'cheesy record hall of fame', Nancy & Lee certainly belongs in it. Never dull, always fun and performed well, it's a great listen from start to finish."
"I love both of their voices to death. Lee has that deep-throated gravelly voice that could sweep any woman off her toes. Nancy has a sugary-sweet, and sexy voice that makes the perfect female complement to Lee's sultry goodness. These two, together with the overall dreamy texture of the album, make for one trippy experience for a pop album. And it's a shame that it's about half covers and half originals on here as Lee Hazlewood is truly a great songwriter. Great pop album."
"This collection is just awesome. Nancy and Lee are excellent together and they should have teamed up as a duo instead of separately."
"I had the Nancy and Lee LP years ago. Wore it out. Nancy Sinatra was not the best female vocalist, but paired up with the raspy baritone voice of Lee Hazlewood, it really was a magical musical experience. Solid songs with excellent instrumental and vocal backups made this album a joy to listen to again."
