Lee Hazlewood

[Scott]

it just dawned on me.....we don't have a thread on him! particularly with his passing late last year i thought we would have already.

i think he is one of the best composers and the most underrated,that has lived. while i know people talk highly of brian wilson who's brilliant in his own right,i think lee was up there as well. and also an incredible solo career which often gets overshadowed for his collab. with nancy.

one of my favourites of his is for one moment (which sadly i don't have in my library and i cannot find it anywhere as it's one of his most underrated)and i love down from doveras well.

Beautiful Scott... thank you for this

How he could be so underrated is beyond me... when everyone knows so many of his hits.

Here is a video featuring for one moment.

Did you know that Lee Hazelwood was... a son of an oil man? studied for a medical degress in Texas? Served in the U.S. Army during the Korean War?
Was a DJ? Partnered with Duann Eddy, pioneer guitarist in '56. Achieved cult status with his songs covered by the Vanilla Fudge, Lydia Lunch, Nick Cave & the Tubes. Nuff said. On with the pics...
