Lee Hazlewood - Love and Other Crimes
Love and Other Crimes is prime Lee Hazlewood and essential listening for fans of the man and his work. With its sophisticated production, this is a truly great sounding album, and at just under thirty minutes, it demands to be listened to from start to finish.
James Burton and company effortlessly shift from country-fried pop to jazzy lounge to elegant ballads and back again. Among the inventive arrangements, She Comes Running and Pour Man successfully pair twangy guitar and harpsichord, with the latter coming off like a mash-up of Merle Haggard’s Mama Tried and Paul Mauriat’s Love Is Blue.
And you haven’t heard Burton’s trademark volume swell technique until you’ve heard it on full display in Rosacoke Street. Even Chuck Berghofer’s distinct upright bass work deserves special mention - listen for his famous These Boots Are Made For Walkin’ bass slide at the end of Pour Man.

Info columns
PRE-ORDERS
Flying Nun only debits your account for a pre-order when it has actually landed in our store. We believe this is fair because supply can often be unreliable - availability and release dates frequently change without notice. Pre-order with Flying Nun and you can cancel any time prior to the product arriving at our store.
OUT OF STOCK ITEMS
Flying Nun only make products available to purchase on our website when they are actually physically held at the store (except pre-orders). Vinyl availability from all local and international suppliers changes on a daily/hourly basis. Therefore, it is not possible to guarantee an online order for many items not currently held in stock.
