Here's the scoop...

“Strawberries, cherries, and an angel’s kiss in spring…” were the immortal words sung by a twenty-five-year-old Nancy Sinatra on a frigid spring day in a London recording studio during the sessions for her third LP in four months! The 1966 album was cut in three days at Pye Studios where The Kinks, Petula Clark, and David Bowie recorded their songs in the mid-1960s. By going directly to the source and choosing songs like “On Broadway,” “Wishin’ and Hopin’,” and “This Little Bird,” the album has an unequivocally British feel. The LP includes the timeless Nancy & Lee Hazlewood duet “Summer Wine.”

The new Light In The Attic version of Nancy In London is the definitive vinyl reissue, freshly remastered from the original analog tapes by Grammy-nominated engineer John Baldwin. The new expanded gatefold edition comes with four bonus tracks: The complete 1969 Mickie Most sessions with the previously unreleased “Colors Are Changing” Vinyl pressed at RTI on black, "Summer Wine" red, & "Little Bird Blue w/ Peach" splatter wax. 

Also includes a 20-page booklet featuring a Q&A with Nancy & Grammy-nominated co-producer Hunter Lea along with never-before-seen photos from Nancy Sinatra’s personal archive. Pre-order a copy from Light In The Attic right here. Check the tracklisting followed by Nancy and Lee's performance of "Summer Wine" on the Ed Sullivan Show on April 16, 1967 and the original version of Nancy In London.
