Growing up as the child of one of the greatest icons in American music can't be easy but Nancy Sinatra managed to create a sound and style for herself fully separate from that of her (very) famous father and her sexy but strong-willed persona has endured with nearly the same strength as the image of the Chairman of the Board. Between 1966 and 1967 alone Nancy charted with 13 titles in the U.S. all of which featured Billy Strange as arranger and conductor. In 1967 she paired with her father for her second number-one single ""Somethin' Stupid"". In 1968 she acted alongside Elvis Presley in the movie Speedway. At the height of her popularity (long before MTV) she starred in several television variety specials including NBC's 1967 Movin' with Nancy from which this DVD is taken. This is a fun and vibrant time capsule. It is closer in spirit to a long form music video than a television show consisting of filmed footage of Sinatra singing her songs at various outdoor locations (thus the ""movin'"" theme). ""I Gotta Get Out of This Town"" is performed while Nancy literally drives away ""Up Up and Away"" is performed - you guessed it - in a beautiful balloon while dancers cavort madly below ""Sugar Town"" is set in an idyllic forest ""Friday's Child"" is inexplicably sung at an oil field and ""See the Little Children"" and ""Who Will Buy?"" are set at an abandoned amusement park. There are also several special guest stars. Songwriter producer and frequent duet partner Lee Hazlewood shows up to sing ""Some Velvet Morning"" and ""Jackson"" with her. Sammy Davis Jr. dances around a fashion photographer shooting Nancy while she sings ""What'd I Say?"" Rarely for its time the show was recorderd in full colour & the quality is excellent. In 1968 this show won an Emmy for Outstanding Directorial Achievement in Music or Variety and was nominated for 2 others. It is a fun glimpse at one of the 60's most popular singers and the styles of the era. Tracklist: 1. I Gotta Get Out Of This Town 2. Up Up And Away 3. Sugar Town 4. Some Velvet Morning 5. Jackson 6.

This DVD is not a carelessly compiled series of clips but a kind of feature film with songs by Nancy Sinatra & Friends and her dad. With her lasciviously arrogant voice Nancy Sinatra caused a sensation in the 1960s successfully following the footsteps of her legendary father Frank. As the female face of rock 'n' roll she embodied the tough and independent woman and became a role model for many young girls of her era. In the 1960s Nancy was sponsored by Royal Cola a fact documented by a couple of commercial clips on this DVD starring (among others) Lee Hazlewood as a cowboy and casual pedestrian and a brilliant Sammy Davis Jr. playing a photographer.The footage also contains entertaining pieces of 60s fashion: ultra-short mini-skirts big hairdos cool colors hot boots and pantsuits. The nostalgically inclined will also love those fabulous American automobiles.

When Elvis Presley burst onto the music scene in 1956 he shocked a nation and inspired a generation. With his unique performing style he defined an era and his influence is still felt throughout the musical world today. In 1958 Elvis left a void when he was drafted into military service and stationed in Germany.

Network television was already wrestling with a generation gap and the rowdy cultural upheaval posed by rock when American network NBC aired this 1967 special for Nancy Sinatra, with younger viewers increasingly tuning out the typical videotaped studio productions that typified TV specials. To sidestep those conventions (and, one suspects, to showcase the stars modest performing gifts to best advantage), director Jack Haley Jr. shot Movin with Nancy on film in and around Los Angeles, yielding sequences that anticipate the visual experiments that would characterise music videos more than a decade later. The results are intriguing: for Sinatras fans, the chance to see her in all her leggy, mini-skirted glory will be irresistible, but amateur pop sociologists will be at least as fascinated by the period details and some unwittingly bizarre undercurrents. For the putative teen viewers of the day, theres the psychedelic montage of "Some Velvet Morning", one of several duets with Sinatras frequent partner at that time, Lee Hazlewood (a country-tinged, B-team Sonny to her blonde variation on Cher), interweaving the two singers on horseback and making much out of bewildering references to Euripides Phaedra. For the grown-ups, there are segments teaming her with Dean Martin (awkwardly addressed as her "god-uncle") and Sammy Davis Jr., as well as a reverential sequence in which she caresses oversized posters of her famous father (including a still from his then-current crime feature, Tony Rome, depicting him with a menacing pistol) that raises all sorts of knotty psychiatric issues. The mix of Rat Pack glitz, flower power, and mainstream pop gets an added kick with Day-Glo fashions cut to Carnaby Street lines, vintage commercials for Royal Crown Cola ("Its a mad, mad, mad, mad cola!"), and pop covers that likewise lock in a sense of temporal dislocation as Nancy gamely tackles "Up, Up and Away" (in a hot air balloon, of course) and "Who Will Buy?" from Oliver!, here goosed with go-go powered dancing. --Sam Sutherland, Amazon.com
