I know this question is for Mr. Hawley Beeshette but I really love these two artistes. My favourite Nancy & Lee song is probably predictable but I love "Some Velvet Morning" great song.

My favourite is one called "She Won't" from an album they did as recently as 2004, it is a really heartbreaking ballad with some literally gut-wrenching guitar work from duane eddy

for those who haven't heard this album please do find it, it is called Nancy and Lee 3 and it seems to be criminally underrated.

Has anyone ever heard Lee and Nancy's 'You've lost that lovin'feeling'? I think it is absolutely top tune and their reading of it is unreal. It has got a proper 'morning after the night before feel to it' if you know what I mean. Had too many drinks. Said too many things...........

I agree. This is a brilliant album, with Lee's voice in fine form and, when you listen to it, you can tell how much they must have enjoyed making it. You're listening to two old friends getting together to sing some songs and have a good time. I would say it's a must for anyone's Nancy and/or Lee collection. :) :)

Frankly, I much prefer their version of it to the Righteous Brothers. They put so much feeling into it.

I know it !
I really don't like the original.............it's a song that needs to be sung by male and female together................when I listen to Nancy and Lee's version,it sounds 'warm',like someones put a fur coat round me.............................I doubt anyone could touch their version........................
