the terrific Your groovy self(from Speedway), the rare but sonically bad Zodiac Blues and a lee and nancy great demo of Love is strange are good reasons to buy this. You have the rest already if you are a Nancy fan.

Nancy crawls through un-peppy versions of "Love Is Strange" and "Daytripper", but when she gets down to business, as on the recently unearthed "Zodiac Song", she's cool-headed fun. Never one to really cut loose and get campy, Sinatra sings up to her persona as a tough cookie, yet the rare movie-track "Geronimo!"--available here for the first time--shows off her youthful exurberance. It's worth the price.
May 20, 2005 |  | The definition of the word "Groovy." |  |
'You Go-Go Girl!', realeased in 1999 which a few unreleased songs became an unknown treaure now being unraveled by consumers. The CD, consisting of 16 tracks including Nancy's one out of two, first #1 hit "These Boots Are Made For Walkin'" from the 1966 album "Boots" which made her one of the most favorite artists of the 60s. This album has really a strong personality which song slike "How Does That Grab You, Darlin'?", which hit #7 on the Billboard Hot 100 Chart and "In Our Time" which topped to #45, Nancy's more loveable tunes can be found on this CD. On this CD, we find "Love Is Strange", a demo duet between mentor Lee Hazelwood and Nancy, which would've been an instant hit if released back in the 60s. It's a fun duet between the two, one of my more favorite songs out of all of their duets. The energetic "Geronimo" can be found on the CD emerging from the movie "The Ghost In The Invisible Bikini". Another previously unreleased song, "Zoadiac Blues", a more funky, groovy song indeed. This song really defines the word "Groovy" with ease from its catchy lyrics to its rapid pace of words. "The Last of the Secret Agents", a spoof of the Jame's Bond movie back in the late 60s, is a more fun, loveable song. One of Nancy's best loved songs can be found on this CD.. "You Only Live Twice", coming from the James Bond movie "You Only Live Twice" released in 1967. Reprise sure did feed out a great number of famous songs by Nancy. This CD is truely worth your money. You best go-go to the nearest place you can buy this CD and get your hands on it before somebody's boots walk all over you. Be sure not to be a day tripper before someone else gets this CD. You only live twice -- so why not? Anyhow, now that you read this review, I have to split. So long, babe.
July 10, 2002 |  | Totally Cool Compilation! |  |
I didn't buy this CD for a while, as I already had Nancy's greatest hits on CD, but I'm glad I finally did. This is a really terrific compilation. The songs are great, the rarities are cool and the liner notes and photos are just perfect. I hope there's more groovy stuff to come from Nancy!
November 13, 2000 |  | What a voice and what a kicky album |  |
I could not disagree more strongly with a prior reviewer who criticizes Ms. Sinatra's vocal ability. Like her superstar father she has an absolutely beautiful voice. I agree with him that she is at her best with sultry songs, but her voice is in its way as pleasurable as Aretha Franklin or other more famous singers. I listen to music that is fun and that can be played over and over. This fits the bill on both counts. You will not be disappointed by this album.
