Barton Lee Hazlewood July 9, 1929 August 4, 2007 was an American country and pop singer, songwriter, and record producer, most widely known for his work with guitarist Duane Eddy during the late 1950s and singer Nancy Sinatra in the 1960s and 1970s. His collaborations with Sinatra as well as his solo output in the late 1960s and early 1970s have been praised as an essential contribution to a sound often described as cowboy psychedelia or saccharine underground . Rolling Stone ranked Lee Hazlewood Nancy Sinatra No. 9 on its list of the 20 Greatest Duos of All Time.
The playing grooves of this acetate start 1/3 into the record and in Mint- condition. There is a edge flake long before the playing grooves.
It must have stood in 4 Star studio warehouse untouched and unplayed for over 65 years.
A truly one of a kind rarity
