maudlinFrom Wikipedia:
Barton Lee Hazlewood (born July 9, 1929 in Mannford, Oklahoma) is an American country singer, songwriter, and record producer....
Following discharge from the military, Hazlewood worked as a disc jockey whilst honing his songwriting skills. Among his early hits was The Fool recorded by rockabilly artist Sanford Clark. Hazlewood also worked with pioneering rock guitarist Duane Eddy.
Hazlewood is perhaps most famous for writing the Nancy Sinatra hit, "These Boots Are Made for Walkin'". However, his own output has also achieved a cult status in the underground rock scene, with songs covered by artists such as Lydia Lunch, Primal Scream, Einstürzende Neubauten, Nick Cave and Boyd Rice.
Hazlewood has a distinctive baritone voice that adds an ominous resonance to his music. Hazlewood's collaborations with Nancy Sinatra as well as his solo output in the late 1960s and early 1970s have been praised as an essential contribution to a sound often described as 'Cowboy Psychedelia' or 'Saccharine Underground'. In 2006 Lee sung for Bela B's first solo album "Bingo" the song "Lee Hazlewood und das erste Lied des Tages" ("Lee Hazlewood and the first song of the day").
In 2006 he was diagnosed with terminal renal cancer with a life expectancy of less than one year.
