Despite Nancy's own background, it is clear from the music that Nancy understood what country music was all about - and the liner notes, including comments by Nancy, confirm that.
The album kicks off with It's such a pretty world today, a great upbeat song which sets the standard of the album. Get while the getting's good is the kind of feisty song that Nancy is so good at. Walk through this world with me, a cover of a George Jones classic, shows that Nancy could sing the slow songs.
Jackson, a duet with Lee Hazelwood, was the big hit from this album. It was every bit as good as the original version by Johnny Cash and June Carter - that's high praise from me, as I am a huge Johnny Cash fan. When it's over, a sad song, is Nancy's favorite song on this album. The sadness is swept away by Lay some happiness on me.
Two more great ballads, Lonely again and By the way, are followed by a second duet with Lee Hazelwood - the Don Gibson classic Oh lonesome me. Nancy does a fine cover of End of the World, a huge American pop hit for Skeeter Davis that also made the British top 20. The original album ends with the excellent, upbeat Help stamp out loneliness.
The three bonus tracks are not quite up to the exceptionally high standard set by the main album, but are still worth hearing. Of all the pop singers who ever dabbled in country music, few if any were better suited to it than Nancy, who also recorded the occasional country song for her later albums, most notably a cover of Dolly Parton's Down from Dover, which she sang as a duet with Lee Hazelwood.

This is a great album by Nancy Sinatra, in which she displays her immense talent in singing, in a very feeling manner, a good selection of country songs. From the well known "Jackson" with Lee Hazlewood, through to the less well known ""By The Way, (I Still Love You)," she shows a country maturity that should be given more coverage. She should record a lot more country songs, she is a natural, and if you only buy one album this year, you will not go wrong if you buy Nancy Sinatra's "Country, My Way."
