Sinatra, Nancy
Start Walkin' 1965-76
As the eldest daughter of Frank Sinatra, Nancy was born into the spotlight. At 19, she made her professional debut in
front of millions of Americans, appearing alongside her father and Elvis Presley on the television special Welcome Home
Elvis. Not long after, she released a series of singles. But those demure recordings didn't reflect the real Nancy
Sinatra - that Nancy would be re-introduced to the world just a few years later, thanks to an unlikely musical
partnership with songwriter and producer Lee Hazlewood.
Nancy's performance of Lee's song "These Boots Are Made for Walkin'" was a huge hit in 1966 and became her signature
tune. The pair began a three year run of successful albums, duets and singles including "Sugar Town," "Some Velvet
Morning," "Summer Wine," "Sand," "Jackson," and the title track to the 1967 James Bond film "You Only Live Twice." Start
Walkin' explores Nancy's recordings with Lee, her inspired collaborations with songwriter Mac Davis ("Hello L.A., Bye
Bye Birmingham"), producer Lenny Waronker ("Hook and Ladder") and the "should've been hit" song with arranger/producer
Billy Strange ("How Are Things In California.") Over the years, she has been cited as an influence by countless artists,
including Sonic Youth, Morrissey, Calexico, U2, and Lana Del Rey. Her haunting song "Bang, Bang" gained a new legion of
fans when it appeared in the opening credits of Quentin Tarantino's 2003 film, Kill Bill Volume 1. Most recently,
Sinatra's contributions to the industry were further recognized by her peers, when "Boots" was inducted into the GRAMMY
Hall of Fame. The honor, bestowed in January of 2020, recognizes "musical recordings of lasting qualitative or
historical significance."
