Sugar

Description

Sugar is the fourth album recorded by Nancy Sinatra in 1966, an astonishing feat considering the Beatles recorded about two albums per year at the time. The iconic cover photo by Ron Joy showing Nancy in a pink bikini (the first on an album cover!) was a bold move in 1967 that helped propel the album to number 18 on the charts (Nancy's second highest-charting album after Boots). It is a unique record that pairs one of Nancy's greatest songs, "Sugar Town," with compositions from the 1920s recorded in a contemporary Dixieland jazz pop fusion style that could only have been concocted by producer Lee Hazlewood.
