Sugar was the fourth album recorded by Nancy Sinatra in 1966, an uncanny feat
considering The Beatles were recording around two albums a year at the Dme. The
iconic Ron Joy cover photo of Nancy in a pink bikini (the first on an album cover!) was
a daring move in 1967 that helped propel the album to #18 on the charts (Nancy’s
second highest charting album Boots).
It is a peculiar record that pairs one of Nancy’s biggest songs, Sugar Town, with
mostly 1920s compositions recorded in a contemporary Dixieland jazz pop fusion
style that could have only been concocted by producer Lee Hazlewood. Equal parts
strong, sultry, and savvy,
Nancy Sinatra has long been ahead of her time , both in her choices as an artist and
as a businesswoman. Unapologetically, she established her own path early on and paved
the way for decades of female artists to come—all while firmly maintaining control
over her career, her image, and her music. In 1965, Nancy Sinatra changed the face of
music, fashion, and culture.
