Item description from seller

Not books but a group of three, 12-inch, 33-1/3 rpm stereo vinyl Sinatra-daughter discs. "Woman," RCA LSP-4774, from 1972, is a radio promo copy with paper timing strip to upper left of jacket front, near-mint vinyl in a very-good-plus jacket starting to show a little ringwear. The dolled-up Miss S. (of 50 years ago) here offers "I Call It Love," a cover of Donna Fargo's "Happiest Girl in the Whole U.S.A.," etc. Reduced from $25. Our second Nancy offering, "Boots," is another 33-1/3 rpm stereo vinyl sort-of rock 'n roll record, Reprise RS-6202, this one from 1966, very-good-plus vinyl in a very-good-plus glossy cardboard jacket. The title hit was by Nancy's producer/svengali Lee Hazlewood, of course. The material otherwise pretty well chosen, including Lennon & McCartney's "Day Tripper" and "Run For Your Life"; Jagger-Richard-Oldham's "As Tears Go By," young Mr. Zimmerman's "It Ain't Me Babe." Recording these tracks for her father's label, one wonders if Nancy recalled at the time who said of rock 'n roll in 1957: "It is sung, played and written for the most part by cretinous goons and by means of its almost imbecilic reiterations and sly, lewd -- in plain fact, dirty -- lyrics . . . manages to be the martial music of every sideburned delinquent on the face of the earth. This rancid smelling aphrodisiac I deplore"? Got it, Frank: Bob Dylan and Paul McCartney -- cretinous goons. Reduced from $19. And our THIRD Nancy LP, "Nancy's Greatest Hits / With a little help from her friends," Reprise RS 6409 from 1970, displays near-mint vinyl in a very-good-plus cardboard jacket with some fraying to one corner and the beginnings of some ringwear. Nancy sings the theme song to the movie "You Only Live Twice." (That's not a cover; after asking "Are you sure you don't want Shirley Bassey?" Nancy cut the original -- though it reportedly took quite a few takes.) Nancy sings songs by Lee Hazlewood (including "Sugar Town" and "These Boots Are Made for Walkin'"); Nancy sings several duets with Lee Hazlewood (on "Jackson" as well as on several songs by, um, . . . Lee Hazlewood); Nancy sings a duet on "Something Stupid" with Frank Sinatra (wow, wonder how she got HIM to help out); Nancy sings a duet with Dean Martin on a Bobby Darin song, and the whole thing gets released on Reprise Records, which was established by . . . well, someone Nancy knew very well, in case you ever wondered how people make it in Hollywood. (You'll also need financing; it might help if you could also arrange for your dad to be the godson of Genovese underboss Willie Moretti.) More recently, of course, the "Boots Are Made for Walking" canary emerged from retirement to respond to the October 1, 2017 mass shooting in Las Vegas by tweeting "The murderous members of the NRA should face a firing squad" -- somewhat oddly, since the NRA favors enforcement of all current gun laws, none of which appears to have hindered the Las Vegas shooter or shooters -- and since the wealthy Sinatra family has presumably long enjoyed a level of protection thanks to armed guards in "secure" residential communities little known out in Flyover Country. Our third disc now reduced from $22; Hair and nose not credited. Package of three Sinatra-Daughter LPs now reduced from $66.…
